m tolerated dose (MTD). Further objectives include assessment of safety and tolerability, pharmacocinetics, and antitumor activity of AP 12009. An update of this ongoing study will be presented at the meeting.

AP 12009 and TGF-beta 2

AP 12009 is an antisense drug - a phosphorothioate oligodeoxynucleotide - designed to selectively downregulate the production of transforming growth factor-beta 2 (TGF-beta 2) at the translational level. TGF-beta 2 plays a pivotal role as a multimodally acting cytokine by regulating key mechanisms of tumor progression. Immunosuppression, invasion and migration, proliferation and angiogenesis are simultaneously promoted in a variety of malignant tumors.This multiple impact on cancer cells is inhibited by AP 12009.
