Background

Mycobacterial Cell Wall-DNA Complex (MCC) is formulated from Mycobacterium phlei, a non-pathogenic strain of mycobacteria. MCC has been shown to have immune stimulatory and apoptosis (programmed cell death) activity against cancer cells. The product is a sterile biological composition in a sub-micron suspension. It is produced at the Bioniche manufacturing facility in Pointe-Claire, Quebec.

Mechanism of action

MCC has a therapeutic potential in high grade transitional cell carcinomas of the bladder, including refractory CIS. The combination of MCC with hyaluronic acid (HA) enhances both the apoptosis-inducing activity of MCC against prostate cancer cell lines, and the immune stimulatory activity of MCC (stimulation of anticancer cytokine synthesis by human immune effector cells).
