At a recent joint press conference with Professor Tuncer at the Ministry of Health, Dr. Carbone commented on the rationale for including ONCONASE in this program. "Our hypothesis is that ONCONASE, with its proven affinity for rapidly-dividing cancerous cells, inhibition of protein synthesis and induction of apoptosis, will block the formation of tumors and therefore arrest or eradicate the disease in its early stages without the need for surgery," stated Dr. Carbone. "As such, swift identification of at-risk families exposed to asbestos and erionite, which are clearly linked to the onset of mesothelioma, early diagnosis of the disease and treatment with ONCONASE will be among the key cornerstones of this exciting program."
