MARY STOLFA CANCER FOUNDATION named in Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory's newly released 2012 Annual Report Executive Summary for contributions towards cancer research
The Stolfa Foundation's funding will support Dr. Nicholas Tonks' research at CSHL, which focuses on kinases and phosphatases - proteins that play an important role in many cellular processes. Mutations that alter the normal function of kinases and phosphatases lead to a number of human diseases, including cancer. Research results have shown that a phosphatase called PTP1B is involved in the development of breast cancer. Recently Dr. Tonks discovered that a drug that inhibits PTP1B and prevents metastasis in mouse models of HER2-positive breast cancer. He is currently working with clinicians to test this drug in an upcoming clinical trial in women HER2-positive metastatic breast cancer. The Stolfa Foundation's funding will help bring this potential new drug to the clinic.
