DNA Damage Response
EMD Serono is among key companies with a focus on pioneering research into the multiple pathways involved in DNA damage response (DDR). Inhibiting these pathways can help disrupt the tumor’s ability to repair damage and can restore sensitivity to treatments. Our active areas of research include:
Is the DNA damage response pathway a viable target for cancer therapy? This video discusses the key protein kinases implicated in DDR pathways and the potential implications of inhibition of these pathways in cancer.
