Researchers from Boehringer Ingelheim Pharma GmbH & Co KG have published preclinical data for their novel pan-KRAS inhibitors BI-2493 and BI-2865, both being developed for the treatment of cancer. Previous research has shown that these pan-KRAS inhibitors target KRAS in the inactive OFF state, while sparing HRAS and NRAS.
Scientists at Boehringer Ingelheim Pharma GmbH & Co. KG and Vanderbilt University have described GTPase KRAS and/or its mutant inhibitors reported to be useful for the treatment of cancer.
A Boehringer Ingelheim Pharma GmbH & Co. KG patent describes new phenylpiperidine derivatives acting as glutaminyl-peptide cyclotransferase (QPCT; QC) and glutaminyl-peptide cyclotransferase-like protein (QPCTL; IsoQC) inhibitors.
Surrozen Inc. has announced that Boehringer Ingelheim Pharma GmbH & Co. KG will further develop SZN-413 to advance the compound and prepare it for clinical testing. Boehringer decided to move forward with development based on the completion of the initial period of joint research under the companies’ strategic partnership for the research and development of SZN-413 for the treatment of retinal diseases.
Researchers from Boehringer Ingelheim Pharma GmbH & Co KG presented the discovery and preclinical characterization of new spleen tyrosine kinase (SYK) inhibitors, BI-894416 and BI-1342561, being developed for the treatment of asthma.
Boehringer Ingelheim Pharma GmbH & Co. KG has synthesized NADPH oxidase 4 (NOX4) inhibitors reported to be useful for the treatment of atherosclerosis, cancer, pulmonary hypertension, inflammatory bowel disease, influenza, retinopathy, sepsis and wet macular degeneration (exudative), among others.
Boehringer Ingelheim Pharma GmbH & Co KG has identified drug conjugates acting as neuromedin U receptor 2 (NMU2) agonists reported to be useful for the treatment of obesity.
Boehringer Ingelheim Pharma GmbH & Co KG has synthesized D-3-phosphoglycerate dehydrogenase (3-PGDH; PHGDH) inhibitors reported to be useful for the treatment of cancer, autoimmune disease, infections and inflammation.
The therapeutic response of approved KRAS inhibitors is not always durable and patients develop resistance frequently. To enhance this durability, the search for KRAS inhibitors in combination with drugs that target downstream or upstream components of RAS is crucial.
