Jonathan,

I wouldn't expect that AndroCar would be useful in targeting the protein kinase that is implicated in breast cancer. While it inhibits kinases associated with prostrate cancer, the two forms of kinase are undoubtedly different. If AndroCar has a true specificity for prostrate cancer kinases then it shouldn't inhibit ANY other kinases. However,if the molecular details of how AndroCar inhibits kinases in prostrate cancer were know, then perhaps this interaction could be used as a model to design compounds which inhibit kinases associated with other forms of cancer. That would take more money than PRLN currently has though. As for it's lack of side effects, I'm sure that will prove to be a huge plus in it's favor.
