ITOCHU Collaborative Research-Molecular Targeted Cancer Treatment for Next Generation was established on June 1, 2019.Our goal is to develop the highly effective and less toxic cancer treatment by using novel molecules and techniques.
Cancer mortality is still rising and cancer patients suffer from not only cancer symptoms but also adverse events related to treatments. Therefore, there is a huge demand for innovative cancer treatment.
We are focusing on cell cycle and its pathway (network) in mammalian cells in order to regulate the growth of cancer cells. Through our researches, we aim to develop and provide “next generation” molecular targeted cancer treatments.
