3 results about "Selective estrogen receptor modulator" patented technology

Acute exposure to estrogenic chemicals is shown herein to induce DNA damage mediated by formation of ERα-dependent R-loops. Disclosed herein are methods for evaluating the safety and activity of a xenoestrogen. Also disclosed are methods for identifying subject particularly susceptible to the genotoxic effects of endogenous estrogens or environmental xenoestrogens. This method can be used to select suitable hormone therapies, such as a selective estrogen receptor modulator (SERM), aromatase inhibitor, or selective estrogen receptor degrader (SERD).

This invention relates to the treatment of breast cancer in a subject, and the subject can be either a male or female subject. Including methods of: treating metastatic breast cancer; refractory breast cancer; AR-positive breast cancer; AR-positive refractory breast cancer; AR-positive metastatic breast cancer; AR-positive and ER-positive breast cancer; triple negative breast cancer; advanced breast cancer; breast cancer that has failed selective estrogen receptor modulator (SERM) (tamoxifen, toremifene, raloxifene), gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) agonist (goserelin), aromatase inhibitor (AI) (letrozole, anastrozole, exemestane), cyclin-dependent kinase 4 / 6 (CDK 4 / 6) inhibitor (palbociclib (Ibrance), ribociclib (Kisqali), lerociclib, abemaciclib (Vorzenio), trilaciclib, lerociclib), mTOR inhibitor (everolimus), trastuzumab (Herceptin, ado-trastuzumab emtansine), pertuzumab (Perjeta), alpelisib (Piqray) (an inhibitor of phosphatidylinositol-3-kinase subunit alpha (PI3Kα)), lapatinib, neratinib (Nerlynx), olaparib (Lynparza) (an inhibitor of the enzyme poly ADP ribose polymerase (PARP)), bevacizumab (Avastin), and / or fulvestrant treatments; metastasis in a subject suffering from breast cancer; HER2-positive; treating a subject suffering from ER mutant expressing breast cancer and / or treating breast cancer in a subject, by first determining the 18F-16β-fluoro-5α-dihydrotestosterone (18F-DHT) tumor uptake and identifying said subject as having AR-positive breast cancer based on 18F-DHT tumor uptake, comprising administering to the subject a therapeutically effective amount of a selective androgen receptor modulator (SARM) compound and a cyclin-dependent kinase 4 / 6 (CDK 4 / 6) inhibitor.

Disclosed is a method for treating of cancer, specifically pancreatic cancer by administering a selective estrogen receptor modulator (SERM), e.g., levormeloxifene, alone or in combination with one or more additional cancer therapies.
