Researchers from Duality Biologics (Suzhou) Co. Ltd. presented preclinical data for a novel Trop-2-targeting antibody-drug conjugate (ADC), DB-1305, being developed for the treatment of solid tumors.
Researchers from the University of Zaragoza and Promontory Therapeutics Inc. have discovered that PT-112, which has a multimodal mechanism of action, could have different clinical applications in cancer treatment due to its effects on mitochondria in castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC). PT-112 is an immunogenic small molecule currently in phase II development in metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC). The researchers designed PT-112 to target advanced solid tumors, such as thymus, small-cell, non-small-cell lung or CRPC.
