Sillajen Inc. has recently presented data regarding their threonine tyrosine kinase (TTK) and Polo-like kinase 1 (PLK1) dual inhibitor BAL-0891 as a therapeutic approach for acute myeloid leukemia (AML) treatment. The compound was tested both in vitro and in vivo in the preclinical setting.
About 30%-40% of triple-negative breast cancers (TNBC) show HER2-low status and may benefit from the HER2-directed antibody-drug conjugate trastuzumab deruxtecan (T-DXd). Ataxia-telangiectasia mutated (ATM) kinase plays a crucial role in double-strand break (DSB) repair response, thus inhibitors of ATM, such as AZD-1390, may enhance the effect of DSB inducers, resulting in DNA damage accumulation.
On the same day that FDA Commissioner Martin Makary spoke in a fireside chat during the 2025 Biotechnology Innovation Organization’s International Convention, the agency unveiled a pilot commissioner’s national priority voucher program that will enable companies to receive a shortened FDA review time of one to two months.
Chinese researchers are preparing the details for the publication of another scientific milestone, the creation of a chimera with a human heart and a kidney developed from human stem cells in pig embryos.
University of Lausanne has reported promising preclinical data on SAN-523, a first-in-class positive allosteric modulator of cystathionine gamma-lyase (CSE), developed as a potential therapeutic for microcrystalline arthropathies, including gout and calcium pyrophosphate deposition (CPPD) disease.
Estrogen receptor-positive (ER+) breast cancer remains a major challenge even with well-defined treatment options. The identification of reliable markers for early detection of the disease is crucial for improving patient outcomes.
Among the presentations included in the Top Abstracts category at the recently inaugurated Annual Congress of the European Association for Cancer Research (EACR) in Lisbon, it is worth highlighting two that respectively addressed the role of cytokines and lipid-sensing receptors as key modulators of the tumor microenvironment, a central theme in current cancer research.
For years, the biopharma industry has spent increasing amounts of money on R&D without improving success rates, leaving many executives searching for new, more predictable drug development paths.
Chinese researchers are preparing the details for the publication of another scientific milestone, the creation of a chimera with a human heart and a kidney developed from human stem cells in pig embryos. These studies aim to address the shortage of immunocompatible organ donors while shedding light on some of the most fundamental questions in developmental biology.
