PNC-27 is a synthetic 32‑amino‑acid peptide containing an HDM‑2‑binding domain linked to a membrane‑penetrating sequence, studied preclinically for its selective cytotoxicity toward cancer cells expressing abnormal p53/HDM‑2 complexes[1][2]. No human clinical trials exist, and the FDA explicitly warns that PNC-27 products are unapproved and lack established safety data[3]. This educational protocol presents a once‑daily subcutaneous approach using a practical dilution for clear insulin‑syringe measurements.
- Reconstitute: Add 3.0 mL bacteriostatic water → 10 mg/mL concentration.
- Typical daily range: 100–500 mcg once daily (gradual titration).
- Easy measuring: At 10 mg/mL, 1 unit = 0.01 mL = 100 mcg on a U‑100 insulin syringe.
- Storage: Lyophilized: freeze at −20 °C (−4 °F); after reconstitution, refrigerate at 2–8 °C (35.6–46.4 °F); avoid freeze–thaw cycles.
