Description

Oglufanide, an angiogenesis inhibitor, an immunomodulator, that originally was developed and registered in Russia under the brand name timogen. Oglufanide inhibits vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), which may inhibit angiogenesis. This agent has also been reported to stimulate the immune response to hepatitis C virus and intracellular bacterial infections. Oglufanide was studied in the USA for the treatment of cancer, and in September 2001, it was granted Orphan Drug designation for the treatment of ovarian cancer. In addition, in Australia this drug was involved in phase II clinical trial for the treatment of hepatitis C. Oglufanide is also participated in phase III trials for patients with Kaposi's sarcoma, however, this study was discontinued.
