Hangzhou Polymed Biopharmaceuticals Inc. has disclosed proteolysis targeting chimeric (PROTAC) compounds comprising cereblon (CRBN) ligands covalently bonded to an EGFR del19/Thr790Met/Cys797Ser triple mutant and/or EGFR Leu858Arg/Thr790Met/Cys797Ser triple mutant-targeting moiety through a linker reported to be useful for the treatment of cancer.
Remegen Ltd. has synthesized antibody-drug conjugates consisting of anti-CDCP1 antibodies covalently linked to cytotoxic drugs through linkers reported to be useful for the treatment of cancer.
Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) have emerged as potential markers of disease, since they associate with proteins that regulate gene expression, translation or stability, among others, and where hypoxia might play a role in this scenario. In recently published work, researchers analyzed clinical data from patients with lung adenocarcinoma to identify hypoxia-modulated lncRNAs in vivo and in vitro, and which could correlate with prognosis.
Advanced Biomed Inc. reported Dec. 30 the sale of its wholly owned Hong Kong subsidiary, Advanced Biomed (HK) Ltd., and related intellectual property to buyer Wei Ha Hui for $23,000.

Shenzhen Chipscreen Biosciences Ltd. has synthesized MAPK-interacting kinase 1 (MNK1) and/or MAPK-interacting kinase 2 (MNK2) inhibitors reported to be useful for the treatment of cancer.
GAS41, the chromatin-associated protein encoded by YEATS4, is frequently overexpressed in non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Beyond its association with epigenetic dysregulation, GAS41 plays an active role in modulating transcriptional programs that are essential for NSCLC pathogenesis, underscoring its suitability as a mechanistically well-supported therapeutic target.
Simcere Zaiming Pharmaceutical Co. Ltd. has obtained clinical trial approval from China’s National Medical Products Administration (NMPA) for SIM-0610 to be studied in patients with locally advanced or metastatic solid tumors.
Shanghai Xianxiang Medical Technology Co. Ltd. has synthesized proteolysis targeting chimera (PROTAC) compounds comprising a cereblon (CRBN)-binding moiety coupled to an EGFR (HER1; erbB1) mutant-targeting moiety through a linker reported to be useful for the treatment of cancer.
