Sichuan Kelun-Biotech Biopharmaceutical Co. Ltd. won local approval of the first China-made trophoblast cell-surface antigen 2 (TROP2)-targeted antibody-drug conjugate (ADC), sacituzumab tirumotecan, as a third-line therapy for advanced breast cancer.

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 a highly metastatic and heterogeneous type of tumor, representing 15% of breast cancer cases. To tackle the drug-resistant phenotype of TNBC, effective targeted combinatorial approaches are urgently needed. Writing in EMBO Molecular Medicine journal, researchers from the Centre for Genomic Regulation and collaborators demonstrate that the simultaneous inhibition of lysyl oxidase-like 2 (LOXL2) and bromodomain-containing protein 4 (BRD4) synergistically limits TNBC proliferation in vitro and in vivo.
