Treeline Biosciences Inc. has patented new tetrahydroisoquinoline heterobifunctional proteolysis targeting chimera (PROTAC) compounds comprising an E3 ubiquitin ligase-binding moiety coupled to a Bcl-2-like protein 1 (Bcl-xl; Bcl-X; BCL2L1)-targeting moiety potentially useful for the treatment of cancer.
Coultreon Biopharma BV has synthesized new macrocyclic cellular tumor antigen p53 (TP53) (Y220C mutant) stabilizers potentially useful for the treatment of cancer.
Kolon Life Science Inc. is developing KLS-3021, a next-generation oncolytic vaccinia virus designed to express the PH20, IL-12 and PD-1-Fc transgenes to mediate receptor-independent tumor cell killing and enhance antitumor immune responses.
Biomunex Pharmaceuticals SAS has entered into strategic collaborations with two AI-specialized companies – Gordion Bioscience Inc. and Tangramed Biotech SAS – as part of its strategy to integrate AI into its R&D activities and support the development of next-generation immunotherapies in oncology.
Yantai New Drug Creation Shandong Laboratory has prepared and tested new heterocyclic amide compounds acting as ubiquitin carboxyl-terminal hydrolase 1 (USP1) inhibitors potentially useful for the treatment of cancer.
Convalife Pharmaceuticals Co. Ltd. has synthesized new polysubstituted aminoquinoline compounds acting as ADP-ribosyl cyclase/cyclic ADP-ribose hydrolase 1 (CD38) inhibitors potentially useful for the treatment of immunological disorders and cancer.
Kunshan Xinyunda Biotechnology Co. Ltd. has patented new antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) consisting of humanized antibodies targeting disintegrin and metalloproteinase domain-containing protein 9 (ADAM9) covalently linked to a payload and potentially useful for the treatment of cancer and inflammatory disorders.
Previous work showed that RNase H2 activity helps triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) cells manage high levels of replication stress, offering new therapeutic insights. Researchers from The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center and Cleveland Clinic now show that cells escaping senescence depend on overexpression of RNase H2, which removes misincorporated ribonucleotides from genomic DNA. They confirmed that TNBCs rely on RNase H2 to tolerate high replication stress.
Australian researchers have identified a previously overlooked population of immune cells in the skin that physically restrain melanoma growth by engulfing live melanoma cells, and the discovery could reshape thinking around macrophage-targeted cancer therapies and innate immunity in oncology.
