About 15% of all cancers have co-deletion of both the MTAP and CDKN2A genes, which results in sensitization to MAT2A inhibitors, thus opening a therapeutic window in these cancer types. MAT2A inhibitors have demonstrated efficacy in MTAD-deficient cancers. Shouyao Holdings (Beijing) Co. Ltd. has developed and released data for their MAT2A inhibitor SY-9453 for the treatment of MTAP-deficient cancers.
Tissue factor (TF), a transmembrane protein overexpressed in tumors such as cervical, head and neck, NSCLC, and pancreatic cancers, initiates the extrinsic coagulation pathway under normal subendothelial expression. TF-targeted vedotin antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) are in clinical evaluation for solid tumors, but toxicities, including peripheral neuropathy, ocular effects and epistaxis, limit their use.
Tumors with high levels of microsatellite instability (MSI-H), such as some subsets of colorectal, endometrial and gastric cancers, are associated with a hypermutated phenotype and a specific dependency on the WRN gene. Pharmacologic inhibition of WRN has been shown to selectively impair the viability of MSI-H cancer cells, effectively blocking tumor growth while sparing microsatellite-stable (MSS) cells.

Peptide-drug conjugates (PDCs) are emerging as a promising alternative to antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs), offering enhanced tumor penetration and reduced immunogenicity. Carbonic anhydrase IX (CAIX) and epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) are both well-validated targets in oncology due to their role in cancer cell survival, invasion and migration.
Mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue lymphoma translocation protein 1 (MALT1) is an important factor from a complex downstream of Bruton tyrosine kinase (BTK) in the B-cell receptor (BCR) signaling pathway.
Minerva Biotechnologies Corp. recently released details on their work to develop a treatment for HER2-positive patients who have acquired resistance to Herceptin (trastuzumab) or Enhertu (trastuzumab-deruxtecan).
