Cadherin 17 (CDH17) is a membrane-bound cell adhesion molecule involved in tumor cell proliferation and is selectively overexpressed in several gastrointestinal malignancies, including colorectal cancer, gastric cancer and pancreatic cancer.
Researchers from Jiangsu Hengrui Pharmaceuticals Co. Ltd. reported the discovery of SHR-3591, an orally bioavailable AR proteolysis targeting chimera (PROTAC) designed to treat prostate tumors.
PARP inhibitors have been approved for the treatment of several cancers, including ovarian, breast, pancreatic and prostate cancers with BRCA mutations or other homologous recombination repair deficiencies (HRD). However, their therapeutic potential is limited by challenges such as hematologic toxicity and lack of target selectivity.
Programmed cell death protein 1 (PD-1) and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) are often co-expressed in the tumor microenvironment. The combination of anti-PD-1 and anti-VEGF agents has been evaluated in patients with advanced non-small-cell lung cancer, with promising results from agents like ivonescimab, a PD-1/VEGF bispecific antibody.
Astrazeneca plc recently reported new preclinical data regarding their KRAS G12D inhibitor AZD-0022, currently in phase I/II clinical studies. The company presented the pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic profiling of the compound with the aim to push forward with its clinical development.
