- MBQ-167 is a first-in-class small molecule and dual targeted inhibitor of over-expression of two proteins (Rac and Cdc42) that enable cancer metastasis and increased resistance to other anti-
cancer agents.

- 90% of cancer-related deaths are related to cancer metastasis and MBQ-167 is being evaluated in
this first human clinical trial to determine the best dose to evaluate this investigational drug in
future studies to determine its safety and efficacy for reducing this terrible outcome.

My ten week stay in the town of Mayagüez has been quite the adventure. With all the people, places, and things to do there is never a dull moment. After visiting many of the beaches on Puerto Rico I have a new appreaction for Sun Screen and I realize that the sun is always shining here in Puerto Rico. The people on the island are also really nice and they are always happy and fun to be around. So between the actual climate as well as the people, it's always sunny in Puerto Rico.
