DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Receptor tyrosine kinases are primary targets for small molecule and monoclonal antibody chemotherapies given their key role in intracellular signaling pathways, regulation of cell growth and cell survival. Immunohistochemical (IHC) analysis of receptor levels is an essential component for cancer classification and attempts to predict the treatment regimens, however, IHC has significant limitations in its predictive value due to the fact that the basic science of receptor signaling has moved well beyond using simple protein levels as an indicator. We now appreciate the importance of kinase activation states that are controlled by multiple factors that have been individually confirmed to be highly relevant for their oncogenic potential. Yet our ability to translate this knowledge into analytical readouts tha are robust and clinically useful is lagging far behind our understanding of signaling events. Our goal is to generate protein kinase specific molecular probes, which will enable detection, quantification and detailed analyses of cancer-relevant signaling pathways alongside dynamic, real time analysis of systemic cellular perturbations. To achieve this goal, we will utilize chemical synthesis to generate candidate probes, characterize their performance as reporters by optical spectroscopy, evaluate their pharmacological properties against relevant cancer signaling pathways and validate their performance against current "gold standard" analytical methods. Successful execution of this research plan will provide a set of probes that provide an optical "fingerprint" with far more informational content and predictive power while being robust in its application for clinical staging, individualized evaluation of drug response, drug development and cancer pathway dissection.

描述（由申请方提供）：受体酪氨酸激酶是小分子和单克隆抗体化疗的主要靶点，因为它们在细胞内信号传导途径、细胞生长和细胞存活调节中发挥关键作用。受体水平的免疫组织化学（IHC）分析是癌症分类的重要组成部分，并试图预测治疗方案，然而，由于受体信号传导的基础科学已经远远超出使用简单的蛋白质水平作为指标的事实，IHC在其预测价值方面具有显着的局限性。我们现在认识到激酶激活状态的重要性，这些激活状态受多种因素控制，这些因素已被单独证实与其致癌潜力高度相关。然而，我们将这些知识转化为强大且临床有用的分析读数的能力远远落后于我们对信号事件的理解。 我们的目标是产生蛋白激酶特异性分子探针，这将使检测，定量和详细分析癌症相关的信号传导途径，同时动态，真实的时间分析系统性细胞扰动。为了实现这一目标，我们将利用化学合成来产生候选探针，通过光学光谱来表征它们作为报告分子的性能，评估它们对相关癌症信号通路的药理学特性，并验证它们对当前“金标准”分析方法的性能。该研究计划的成功执行将提供一组探针，其提供具有更多信息内容和预测能力的光学“指纹”，同时在其临床分期、药物反应的个体化评价、药物开发和癌症通路解剖的应用中具有鲁棒性。
