Tyme Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ: TYME), an emerging biotechnology company, announced a new research collaboration with NYU Langone Health to advance the development of innovative treatments for patients with metastatic cancers, including pancreatic cancer. The collaboration will leverage NYU Langone’s state-of-the-art technologies to help inform the development of clinical therapies, focusing on identifying potential future biomarkers or combination approaches to treat cancer. “We are excited to collaborate on this new effort to help uncover key findings about how specific biomarkers may help slow the development of certain cancer types,” said Diane Simeone, MD, Director of the Pancreatic Cancer Center at NYU Langone Health’s Perlmutter Cancer Center and Lead Principle Investigator for the Pancreatic Cancer Network’s Precision PromiseSM trials. “We believe our translational research can help affect future development of SM-88 and broaden our understanding of this novel approach by targeting cancer metabolism.” The broad collaboration will examine the effects of SM-88 and each of the components of MPS (methoxsalen, phenytoin, and sirolimus) on primary pancreatic cancer cell lines, patient-derived pancreatic cancer organoids as well as specialized mouse xenograft models.
