More WIRE STORIES about this company

 PROFILE
Genta plays rough with cancer. The firm develops oligonucleotide cancer drugs that regulate the production of disease-related proteins at the genetic level. Its lead drug candidate is Genasense, an antisense compound that disrupts the production of proteins by the bcl-2 gene, thought to be responsible for such cancers as lymphoma, leukemia, and melanoma. The FDA has given Genasense orphan drug status as a treatment for melanoma. Genta also develops treatments to prevent bone resorption; one product, Ganite, has received FDA approval. Its Genta Jago Technologies joint venture with SkyePharma develops generic controlled-release drugs. Dr. Lindsay Rosenwald of Paramount Capital Asset Management owns 80% of Genta.
