Shenzhen Zhongge Biotechnology Co. Ltd. has disclosed tyrosine-protein phosphatase non-receptor type 2 (PTPN2; TCPTP) inhibitors reported to be useful for the treatment of cancer.
Oncolytic viruses are therapeutic agents used for in situ immunization in cancer immunotherapy. Unfortunately, its efficacy is particularly limited in solid tumors expressing stimulator of interferon genes (STING) and retinoic acid-inducible gene I (RIG-I).
Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is one of the most aggressive and difficult-to-treat forms of breast cancer, lacking targeted therapies due to its molecular characteristics. Tumor-associated neutrophils (TANs), particularly the pro-tumor N2-type, contribute to TNBC progression and resistance to treatment.
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is an aggressive disease that accounts for 80%-90% of all primary liver cancers. Previous findings have shown fibroblast growth factor 19 (FGF-19) to be overexpressed in up to 30% of HCC cases, exerting its oncogenic effect through its receptors fibroblast growth factor receptor 3 (FGFR3) and FGFR4.
Ariceum Therapeutics GmbH’s radiopharmaceutical 225Ac-SSO110 ([225Ac]satoreotide tetraxetran) has been awarded orphan drug designation by the FDA for the treatment of small-cell lung cancer (SCLC). [225Ac]Satoreotide is a first-in-class Actinium-labeled somatostatin SST2 receptor antagonist.
Newco Akribion Therapeutics GmbH has raised €8 million (US$8.3 million) in a seed round to develop a new and potent class of RNA-targeted CRISPR nucleases, which, rather than cleaving specific nucleic acids, can destroy every type of nucleic acid in a cell.
F. Hoffmann-La Roche Ltd. and Hoffmann-La Roche Inc. have divulged stimulator of interferon genes protein (STING; TMEM173) antagonists reported to be useful for the treatment of cancer, autoimmune diseases, inflammatory, neurological, metabolic, cardiovascular and ocular disorders.
Etern Biopharma (Shanghai) Co. Ltd. has identified proteolysis targeting chimeras (PROTACs) comprising an E3 ubiquitin ligase binding moiety coupled to an androgen receptor targeting moiety through a linker acting as androgen receptor degradation inducers reported to be useful for the treatment of cancer.
Shanghai Allist Pharmaceuticals Co. Ltd. has synthesized protein arginine N-methyltransferase 5 (PRMT5) inhibitors reported to be useful for the treatment of cancer.
