iMN041: Prodrug with a Unique Antitumor Immune Response

WuXi AppTec scientists contributed to a research article in the journal Translational Medicine Communications which characterized the antitumor immune responses generated by iMN041, a prodrug of a DNA methyl transferase/ribonucleotide reductase inhibitor.  This study also assessed the efficacy of iMN041 in mouse xenografts of human clear cell renal cell cancer, pancreatic cancer, and triple negative breast cancer.  The authors show that iMN041 is a potentially effective treatment for solid tumors mediated in part through a unique antitumor immune response.
