IPSCIO Record ID: 372510
U.S. Provisional Patent Appl. No. 61/379,327
PCT/US2011/(number not yet assigned) 'Formation and maintenance of mesenchymal and stem-cell states in the breast by paracrine ad autocrine signals'
PCT/US2006/25589 ' Progenitor Cells and Uses Thereof'
Cancer stem cells, or CSCs are also sometimes referred to as tumor-initiating cancer cells, are responsible for the initiation, metastasis and recurrence of many cancers and may be a key reason for the ultimate failure of many current therapies to achieve a durable clinical response.
A persistent problem in the discovery of drugs targeting CSCs is the difficulty of isolating large numbers of CSCs. Without such large numbers, the discovery of drugs targeting CSCs using high-throughput screening is extremely difficult. Moreover, when CSCs are isolated, they typically do not remain stable in culture. Instead, over a short period of time, CSCs convert into other types of cancer cells. To address this problem, our scientific co-founders developed proprietary technology based on the EMT process to create a stable population of CSCs that are suitable for use in high-throughput screening of small molecule compounds.

Product means any preparation in final form, either for sale by prescription, over-the-counter or any other method or for administration to human patients in Clinical Trials, for any and all uses in the Field, which preparation contains a Collaboration Compound, or in the case of a Product for Diagnostic Use, utilizes the relevant Discovery Target and/or Collaboration Compound for Diagnostic Use.
Human Response Platform is a novel method of building preclinical models of human cancer, which are intended to more accurately represent cancer biology in patients.
Human Response Prediction platform is based on AVEO's proprietary, genetically-defined mouse models of human cancer. Each of these models is engineered to contain signature genetic mutations that are present in human disease. Beyond these cancer-initiating engineered mutations, the resultant tumors acquire common and distinct spontaneous mutations during tumor progression, providing additional natural genetic variation more akin to the range of genetic heterogeneity encountered across different primary human tumors. The tumor-to-tumor genetic variation in the system provides the opportunity to identify genetic correlations between responding and non- responding tumor populations, and to apply such genetic profiles in clinical development.
Field means the use of Non-MAP Collaboration Targets, MAP Collaboration Targets, Discovery Targets, Collaboration Compounds and/or Products for any and all Therapeutic Uses and/or Diagnostic Uses.
