Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

This invention discloses applications of desogestrel in the preparation of anti-colon cancer/breast cancer ER-negative Ah receptor-positive products. This invention provides applications for desogestrel in the preparation of products to treat colon cancer and/or breast cancer. From carrying out cancer drug repositioning for the FDA- and CFDA-approved drug desogestrel, experiments for this invention show, based on screening of non-anti-cancer drugs for various cancer cell lines (tissue types) and mutation sites, that desogestrel has a new use as an anti-colon cancer medication, thus achieving a new purpose for an old drug.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A method for treating Dukes type C colorectal adenocarcinoma in a subject comprising administering an effective amount of desogestrel to the subject. 2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the subject's colon cancer has spread to the lymph nodes. 3. A method of inhibiting the proliferation of Dukes type C colorectal adenocarcinoma cells comprising contacting the cells with an effective amount of desogestrel. 4. A method for treating a colon cancer patient with Dukes type C colorectal adenocarcinoma, the method comprising: (a) screening the patient having colon cancer for involvement of lymph nodes; and (b) treating the patient screened in step (a) having lymph node involvement by administering an effective amount of desogestrel to the patient.
