Researchers from Third Military Medical University of the Chinese PLA have published data from a study that aimed to investigate the biological functions and molecular mechanisms of tandem C2 domains, nuclear (TC2N) in the development and progression of breast cancer.
Synnovation Therapeutics Inc. has identified phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase α (PI3Kα) inhibitors reported to be useful for the treatment of cancer, PIK3CA-related overgrowth spectrum (PROS), congenital lipomatous overgrowth, vascular malformations, epidermal naevi and skeletal abnormalities.
Researchers from Mbrace Therapeutics Inc. presented the discovery and preclinical evaluation of MBRC-101, a novel antibody-drug conjugate (ADC) targeting the membrane-associated tyrosine kinase receptor EphA5, being developed for the treatment of cancer.
Retinoic acid receptor-γ (RARγ) agonism is a key factor in CD8 T-cell-mediated immunity to infectious pathogens. The lack of studies on the effects of RARγ agonists on in vivo tumor growth of triple-negative (TNBC) or HER2+ breast cancers make it necessary to investigate whether RARγ could play a critical role in T-cell-mediated immunity in these breast cancers, using novel RARγ nuclear agonists.
Researchers from Sichuan University and Chengdu Normal University have reported the discovery of novel G9a/GLP covalent inhibitors for the treatment of triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC).
PI3Kα H1047R accounts for one-third of all PI3Kα mutations and is associated with treatment resistance to targeted therapies in breast cancer treatment. In addition, treatment with selective PI3Kα inhibitors often results in significant adverse events such as hyperglycemia due to on-target toxicity.
Researchers from Bridgebio Pharma Inc. recently presented BBO-10203, a first-in-class, orally bioavailable, covalent small-molecule candidate designed to inhibit RAS-driven PI3Kα activity without affecting glucose metabolism.
Haisco Pharmaceutical Group Co. Ltd. has synthesized poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase 1 (PARP-1; ARTD1) inhibitors reported to be useful for the treatment of cancer.
Researchers from Blueprint Medicines Corp. presented data from a study that aimed to assess the effects of combining cyclin-dependent kinase 2 (CDK2) inhibitor BLU-222 with CDK4/6 inhibitors, such as palbociclib or ribociclib, to overcome CDK4/6 inhibitor resistance in HR-positive/HER2-negative breast cancer.
