In a boon for licensee Bristol Myers Squibb Co., Systimmune Inc.’s next-generation cancer drug, izalontamab brengitecan (iza-bren), hit both progression-free survival and overall survival endpoints in a phase III trial of Chinese patients with advanced triple-negative breast cancer.
Calidi Biotherapeutics Inc. recently presented data regarding CLD-401 as an immunotherapeutic approach developed using the Redtail gene therapy platform. This platform uses a tumor-specific, replicating enveloped vaccinia virus that expresses a chimeric form of CD55 to allow complement and neutralizing antibody resistance, as well as systemic administration.
Researchers from the Innovation Program of Drug Research on Inflammatory and Immune Diseases at NMPA Key (China) and collaborators aimed to further investigate the impact of Src homology phosphatase 2 (SHP2) on breast cancer-induced bone destruction.

Researchers from Jiangsu Ocean University reported the synthesis and preclinical evaluation of novel derivatives of SKF-83566, a selective D1 receptor antagonist widely used in dopamine signaling research.
Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) cells depend on the transcriptional kinases CDK12 and CDK13 to maintain DNA damage response gene expression and manage replication stress. Due to their functional overlap, inhibition of a single kinase may permit compensatory activity.
Onchilles Pharma Inc. has obtained IND approval from the FDA for N-17350, enabling initiation of first-in-human studies in patients with advanced solid tumors. The study will enroll patients in the U.S. and Australia with advanced solid tumors.
An AI-based software developed by Screenpoint Medical BV could help detect breast cancers earlier and reduce the number of cancers that appear between routine screenings. In a trial of over 100,000 women, the use of the company’s Transpara Detection system resulted in a 12% reduction in the rate of interval cancers, compared to standard mammography screening. The results from the Mammography Screening with Artificial Intelligence study was published in the Lancet.
Kazia Therapeutics Ltd. has announced promising preclinical and translational data supporting the development of NDL-2, a protein degrader targeting a newly identified mechanism of immunotherapy resistance and metastatic progression.
