  • Research summary

    Lantern Pharma is developing the novel drug, LP-184 (HUMAF), for prostate cancer. Preliminary biomarker analyses using cell line data have identified molecular profiles that correlate with drug sensitivity. We plan to obtain fresh prostate tumor biopsies for the analysis of drug sensitivity and molecular markers to confirm and extend the cell line-based biomarker analysis.
