Disease relevance of EMD 121974

  • No increased toxicity attributable to Cilengitide was observed based upon pooled blood sample and no statistical increase in mortality [1].
  • In conclusion, CMRIT, combining Cilengitide and RIT, significantly increased the efficacy of therapy and increased apoptosis compared with single-modality therapy with either agent, in an aggressive, well-studied breast cancer model [1].
  • Orthotopic brain tumor growth is inhibited in athymic mice by the daily systemic administration of the alpha v-integrin antagonist EMD 121974 [2].
  • CONCLUSIONS: We conclude that radiation induces expression of alpha v beta 3 integrin in endothelial and non-small-cell lung cancer models, and that integrin antagonist Cilengitide is a radiosensitizer in proportion to the levels of target integrin expression [3].
  • Currently, patients with melanoma and glioblastoma multiforme benefit from Vitaxin (MedImmune, Gaithersburg, MD) or cilengitide treatment, respectively [4].

Gene context of EMD 121974

  • In contrast, the tumor volume in Cilengitide-treated mice stayed unchanged at 1 to 2 mm during the entire length of the experiment, with staining for Ki-67 and CD31 remaining low [10].
  • We used cyclic peptides EMD 121974, 85189 and 66203, which selectively inhibit alphav beta 3 and alphav beta 5, but not gpIIbIIIa or alpha5 beta 1, to probe in vitro angiogenesis induced by angiogenic cytokines in three-dimensional fibrin or collagen gels [11].
