How GTI-2501 works
GTI-2501 is an antisense oligonucleotide complementary to the R1 component of ribonucleotide reductase, which component is essential for DNA replication and tumor cell proliferation. GTI-2501 is designed to exert its activity by specific downregulation of the R1 component of ribonucleotide reductase. In preclinical studies, GTI-2501 showed significant antitumor activity against prostate cancer and a variety of other tumor types including colon, pancreas, NSCLC, breast, ovary, melanoma, brain (glioblastoma-astrocytoma), renal, cervical, lymphoma and leukemia.
