Research: Although treatment of patients diagnosed at early stages of Breast Cancer (BC) is crucial for favorable prognosis, there are currently no safe and potent drugs to stop BC progression. Small molecules that we developed in our laboratory showed the ability to reverse early stage BC cells back to their normal state. These molecules form the basis for developing novel drugs that could prevent progression of breast cancer.
