Funded Activity Summary

Synthesis of novel biologically active isoflavones. Cancer and heart disease are two of the main diseases that affect our society indiscriminately and put enormous drains on our health-care resources. Therefore, discovery and development of drugs that can treat these diseases are of utmost importance. Given the established success of Novogen Ltd in the development of drugs through to human clinical trials, novel isoflavones proposed in this study may lead to the discovery of new drug leads or therapeutic agents. The project has the potential to deliver enormous commercial benefits to Australian industry and social benefits to our ageing population through provision of new, locally produced therapeutics.
