Treatment of cancer using guanylate cyclase-c agonist peptides
A recently filed patent (Publication Number: US20240002440A1) discloses a method for treating cancer in a subject by administering a composition containing a specific peptide (SEQ ID NO: 9) that is a (4,12:7,15) bicycle. The method involves administering a therapeutically effective amount of the peptide, with the effective amount ranging from 1 mg to 10 mg per dose. The composition is to be administered once daily to the subject.
Furthermore, the patent claims that the method can be enhanced by administering an inhibitor of cGMP-specific phosphodiesterase (cGMP-PDE) along with the peptide composition. The inhibitor of cGMP-PDE can be administered concurrently or sequentially with the peptide and may include compounds such as sulindac sulfone, zaprinast, motapizone, vardenafil, or sildenafil. Specifically, the inhibitor of cGMP-PDE may comprise sulindac sulfone or zaprinast to achieve the desired therapeutic effect in treating cancer in the subject.
