The effective targeting of RAS-mutant acute myeloid leukemia (AML) still remains a challenge; RAS mutations are tied to relapse to targeted therapy, such as resistance to FLT3 inhibitors due to the RAS/MAPK pathway, for example.
Researchers from the University of California San Francisco (UCSF) have successfully replicated the design of regulatory T cells, achieving local targeted immune suppression and protection from CAR T-cell cytotoxicity. Many of the treatments used so far in the context of inflammatory and autoimmune disorders lead to systemic immunosuppression. In this sense, limiting immunosuppression locally to targeted tissues may help overcome systemic toxicity.
Wigen Biomedicine Technology (Shanghai) Co. Ltd. has divulged compounds acting as histone deacetylase 1 (HDAC1) and/or 2 (HDAC2) inhibitors reported to be useful for the treatment of cancer.
Researchers from Excellamol Inc. presented the design and preclinical characterization of XM161-SN38, a novel IL-13Rα2-targeting polypeptide-drug conjugate being evaluated for the treatment of gliomas.
Researchers from AUTOTAC Bio Inc. and affiliated organizations presented preclinical data for ATC-324, a novel autophagy-targeting chimera (AUTOTAC) designed to induce androgen receptor (AR) degradation.
Researchers from the Children's Hospital of Philadelphia presented data from a study that aimed to identify novel biologically relevant cell surface immunotherapeutic targets for neuroblastoma.
