Anti-carcinogenic Effect of Cathepsin K Inhibitor, Odanacatib with a Low Dose of Cisplatin Against Human Breast Carcinoma MCF-7 and MDA-MB231 Cells
Conclusion: This study highlights the potential effects of the combination of ODN with a reduced dose of cisplatin on improving the growth inhibition and apoptosis-inducing effect on breast cancer cells via combined inhibition of NF-κB-induced IL-6 and STAT3 activation. The study result suggests that the further development of this novel inhibitor in combination with a low dose of standard cisplatin-based chemotherapy may contribute to an alternative treatment option for certain cancers.
