Title:
COMPOSITIONS AND METHODS OF USE OF LIGANDS THAT BIND COMPONENTS OF THE BLOOD COAGULATION/CLOTTING PATHWAY FOR THE TREATMENT OF CANCER AND ANGIOGENIC-BASED DISEASE
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2001/027079
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
Compositions and methods effective in inhibiting abnormal or undesirable cell proliferation, particularly endothelial cell proliferation and angiogenesis related to neovascularization and tumor growth are provided. The compositions comprise naturally occurring, or synthetic proteins, peptides, or protein fragments capable of binding to components of the blood coagulation pathway. The compositions may be administered using a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier. The methods involve administering to a human or animal the composition described herein in a dosage sufficient to inhibit cell proliferation, particularly endothelial cell proliferation. The methods are useful for treating diseases and processes mediated by undesired and uncontrolled cell proliferation, such as cancer, particularly by inhibiting angiogenesis. Administration of the composition to a human or animal having prevascularized metastasized tumors is useful for preventing the growth or expansion of such tumors.
