Nanjing Synnocare Pharmaceutical Technology Co. Ltd. and Shanghai Synnocare Biopharmaceuticals Co. Ltd. have patented ATP-dependent RNA helicase A (DHX9) inhibitors with potential for use in the treatment of cancer, autoimmune and viral infections.
CSN5, a key COP9 signalosome subunit, regulates protein stability in the cell cycle, apoptosis and DNA repair. Its overexpression in cancer promotes tumor growth, metastasis and therapy resistance, making it a potential therapeutic target.
C-Further, an international consortium supporting new therapeutics for pediatric cancers, has unveiled the first early-stage therapeutic programs in its pipeline. The company said it is advancing CF-012 and CF-033 through its collaborative model.
Similarities among three pediatric brain tumors that arise in different structures of the CNS – pineoblastoma, retinoblastoma and Group 3 medulloblastoma – have been linked to their shared origin during pineal gland development. Scientists at St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital have identified the molecular signatures that drive these tumors from pinealocyte progenitor cells that conserve a common differentiation program, providing a shared therapeutic target for these three cancer types.
Shanghai Deep Potential Technology Co. Ltd. has discovered serine/threonine-protein kinase PLK1 (STPK13) inhibitors reported to be useful for the treatment of cancer.
Shanghai Chempartner Co. Ltd. has identified antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) comprising HER2 (erbB2) or tumor-associated calcium signal transducer 2 (TACSTD2; TROP2) covalently linked to eribulin through a linker reported to be useful for the treatment of cancer.
Researchers from Hangzhou Innogate Pharma Co. Ltd. and Innorace Biopharma Co. Ltd. have disclosed tyrosine-protein phosphatase non-receptor type 1 (PTPN1; PTP-1B) and/or tyrosine-protein phosphatase non-receptor type 2 (PTPN2; TCPTP) inhibitors. They are reported to be useful for the treatment of cancer, metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD; NAFLD), obesity and diabetes.
Zelluna ASA has established a collaboration with Etcembly Ltd. that will focus on the engineering of high-affinity, tumor-specific T-cell receptors targeting KKLC1.
Dysregulation of the mechanistic target of rapamycin (mTOR) signaling pathway is frequently observed across a wide range of cancers and contributes to uncontrolled cell proliferation, enhanced cellular metabolism, and tumor progression.
A recent study published in Cancer Research by scientists at The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center (USA) and collaborators aimed to identify and characterize a target that elicits an anticancer response through both disrupting cancer cell redox homeostasis and increasing the immunogenicity of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC).
