HSN-003839 is a ubiquitin carboxyl-terminal hydrolase 21 (USP21) inhibitor discovered by Beijing Pharscin Innobio Co. Ltd. and being developed as a novel anticancer agent.
Results of preclinical studies with a highly potent KRAS (G12D mutant) inhibitor for the treatment of cancer were recently reported by researchers from Betta Pharmaceuticals Co. Ltd. BPI-501836 displayed higher inhibitory activity at KRAS G12D, when compared to the reference compound (IC50=0.25 and 2.4 nM, respectively) in NanoBRET assays.
Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is an aggressive type of breast cancer with poor prognosis and limited therapeutic options, and it accounts for 15%-20% of female invasive breast cancers.
Researchers from Beijing Pharscin Innobio Co. Ltd. presented the discovery and preclinical characterization of a novel highly selective poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase 7 (PARP7) inhibitor, HSN-002066, being developed for the treatment of cancer.
The overexpression of transferrin receptor 1 (TfR1) has been reported in several cancer types but is also expressed in normal cell types such as erythroblasts. On the other hand, epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) is highly expressed in epithelial carcinomas.
A team from GC Cell Corp. reported preclinical data on GL-205, a novel allogeneic anti-CD5 CAR-NK being developed for the treatment of T-cell malignancies. GL-205 was developed using cord blood-derived NK cells that were genetically modified to express CD5-directed CAR and simultaneously produce IL-15 to support NK cell survival and proliferation.
