Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) accounts for about 15% of invasive breast cancers, and due to the lack of well-established targets, TNBC has the worst prognosis among all breast cancer types.
Researchers from The Cleveland Clinic Foundation presented a novel targeted therapeutic peptide for the treatment of triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC).
Accent Therapeutics Inc. has completed a $75 million series C financing to support progression of its lead programs through early clinical development.
Presage Biosciences Inc. has announced that the FDA has issued a study may proceed notification for testing a pre-GMP drug candidate with the company’s Comparative In Vivo Oncology (CIVO) platform. Owned by Pure Biologics, the drug candidate, PBA-0405, is a ROR1-targeting compound that has been engineered to induce tumor cell killing by cytotoxic immune cells.
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.

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).
Researchers from Medical University of South Carolina aimed to evaluate the potential of secreted frizzled-related protein 2 (SFRP2) as a promising novel target for breast cancer using a newly developed humanized monoclonal antibody to SFRP2 (hSFRP2 MAb) in models of this disease.
Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is the most aggressive breast tumor subtype and despite treatment advances, still has shorter median overall survival rates and higher recurrence and metastatic rates than other subtypes, due to resistance to chemotherapy.
