MSD had a banner year at the ESMO Asia Congress earlier this month, presenting 14 abstracts on eight different types of cancers, including gastric, esophageal, colorectal, biliary tract, kidney, urothelial, breast and gynecological cancers. Ten of these studies were focused on Asian-related data. Roche AG, meanwhile, presented Asia-specific results from the phase III Alina study in patients with ALK-positive early stage non-small-cell lung cancer.
Allorion Therapeutics Inc. could receive $40 million in up-front and near-term payments from Astrazeneca plc in the companies’ exclusive option and global license deal. The two plan to develop and commercialize an L858R mutated allosteric inhibitor for treating EGFR inhibitor-mutant non-small-cell lung cancer.

From previous reports, there is evidence that cancer cells overexpress inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptor-interacting protein-like 1 (ITPRIPL1) to evade the immune system and promote tumor growth. Tissue samples from patients with non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) were collected and used for studying the expression (intensity and extent) patterns of ITPRIPL1 and its diagnostic and prognostic value in this cancer type.
An F. Hoffmann-La Roche Ltd. and Hoffmann-La Roche Inc. patent describes indole derivatives acting as EGFR L858R mutant, T790M/L858R double mutant, T790M/L858R/C797S triple mutant and/or L858R/C797S double mutant allosteric inhibitors reported to be useful for the treatment of non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC).
Most patients with non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) develop acquired drug resistance to EGFR inhibitors. Osimertinib, a third-generation inhibitor, often sees its therapeutic effect reduced due to the C797S mutation of EGFR exon 20, which blocks the binding of Cys797 to osimertinib.
Researchers at Dana-Farber Cancer Institute are advancing a fourth-generation allosteric EGFR inhibitor, EAI-432, to treat non-small-cell lung cancer driven by mutations in the EGFR gene, particularly the L858R mutation.
KSQ Therapeutics Inc., in collaboration with The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center and the Cell Therapy Manufacturing Center (CTMC), have announced FDA clearance of an IND application for a phase I/II study of KSQ-001EX, KSQ’s lead engineered tumor-infiltrating lymphocyte (eTIL) program.
The U.S. and China biotech Apollomics Inc. on Nov. 16 gained the NMPA’s conditional approval for its cellular mesenchymal-epithelial transcription inhibitor for lung cancer called vebreltinib (APL-1010) through its Beijing-based partner, Avistone Biotechnology Co. Ltd.
