Desmoid fibromatosis (desmoid tumor, DT) is a soft tissue neoplasm prone to recurrence despite complete surgical resection. Numerous small retrospective reports suggest that non-cytotoxic chemotherapy using tamoxifen and sulindac may be effective for DT. We evaluated the safety and efficacy
Pharmacological targeting of breast cancer stem cells (CSCs) is highly promising for the treatment of breast cancer, as the small population of CSCs appears responsible for tumor initiation and progression and also for resistance to conventional treatment. Here we report

Sulindac is a prodrug which, following absorption, rapidly attains a metabolic equilibrium with its active pharmacophore, the sulfide metabolite. At the level of the whole body, the reversible interconversion sulindac in equilibrium sulfide, and the differing distributional and excretory properties
Sulindac is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) of the indene acetic acid class. The absorption of sulindac is rapid when given orally. Sulindac is reversibly metabolised to sulindac sulphide which has anti-inflammatory and analgesic properties and is irreversibly metabolised to

The γ-secretase complex is an appealing drug target when the therapeutic strategy is to alter amyloid-β peptide (Aβ) aggregation in Alzheimer disease. γ-Secretase is directly involved in Aβ formation and determines the pathogenic potential of Aβ by generating the aggregation-prone
