Inventors: Robert C. Moschel (NCI) et al. Relevant Publication: A manuscript directly related to the above technology will be available as soon as it is accepted for publication. Patent Status: U.S. Patent Application No. 11/683,310 filed 07 Mar 2007 (HHS Reference No. E–307–2004/1–US–01). Licensing Status: Available for exclusive and non-exclusive licensing. Licensing Contact: Adaku Nwachukwu, J.D.; 301/435–5560; madua@mail.nih.gov. Inhibition of ABC Transporters by Transmembrane Domain Analogs Description of Technology: ABC transporters contain multiple transmembrane domains and are involved in the translocation of a variety of substrates across cell membranes. Upregulation of these transporters contributes to multiple drug resistance in cancer chemotherapy wherein these transporters export chemotherapeutic agents out of cancer cells. The inventors have found that P-glycoprotein and ABCG2 transporter can be effectively inhibited by properly modified peptides corresponding to certain transmembrane domains. This inhibition can be used to overcome drug resistance in resistant tumors. Applications: Therapeutics that enhance cancer treatments. Market: Cancer is the second leading cause of death in the United States; 600,000 deaths caused by cancer in 2006; Worldwide incidence of new cancer patients is forecast to increase from 4.2 million cases in the major cancer markets in 2005 to 4.6 million in 2010; Global anticancer market was worth over $42 billion in 2005 and by 2010, the global cancer market is expected to generate sales in excess of $60 billion. Development Status: The technology is currently in the pre-clinical stage of development. Inventors: Nadya I. Tarasova et al. (NCI) Publications: 1. NI Tarasova et al.
