Researchers from Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center and affiliated organizations revealed findings from the preclinical evaluation of 1H5, a novel monoclonal antibody (mAb) candidate that inhibits the NOTCH signaling pathway and is being developed for the treatment of high-grade gliomas (HGGs).
There is increasing interest in developing precision immunotherapies that target tumors but with minimal impact on healthy tissues. IL-12 is a potent immunostimulatory cytokine that has shown effective antitumoral activity in the preclinical setting, but its systemic delivery may be accompanied by off-target effects.
Researchers from presented preclinical data for AVX-70371, a novel therapeutic vaccine being developed for the treatment of chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection.
Scientists from Recludix Pharma Inc. presented the preclinical characterization of REX-7117, an orally available, reversible, SH2 domain-targeting STAT3 inhibitor, being developed for the treatment of inflammatory diseases.
Kyverna Therapeutics Inc. has presented details on the development and preclinical characterization of KYV-102, an autologous fully human anti-CD19 CAR T-cell therapy developed for diseases driven by B cells, such as systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), among others.
Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) is the most lethal primary adult brain cancer. Genomic instability, angiogenesis or chronic tumor hypoxia underlie high recurrence rates despite maximal surgery and concomitant radiotherapy and chemotherapy.
Recently presented preclinical data show that EA Pharma Co. Ltd.'s EA-3571 is a highly potent dual inhibitor of enteropeptidase and trypsin with luminal action, resulting in potential anti-insulin resistance and fat-burning properties.
Our immune cells are not just “defenders” against deadly viruses and pathogens but also a great balancer for tissue homeostasis. For neurological disorders, understanding the neuro-immune axis could be key to treating previously untreatable conditions such as autism spectrum disorder, according to Jun R. Huh, professor of immunology at Harvard Medical School.
Nectin-4 antibody-drug conjugate (ADC) and checkpoint inhibitor combinations have represented a great advancement in the treatment of bladder cancer, but relapse and treatment-related toxicities underscore the need for new therapeutic strategies.
Researchers from Anaveon AG and affiliated organizations presented the discovery and preclinical characterization of ANV-700, a novel proximity-activated cytokine (PAC) compound designed to selectively deliver IL-21 to PD-1-expressing cells for the treatment of cancer.
