Researchers from Johns Hopkins University, National Institutes of Health and University of Iowa have synthesized superstolide derivatives reported to be useful for the treatment of cancer and viral infections.
Triple-negative breast cancer, which accounts for 15-20% of all cases of breast cancer, is particularly difficult to treat. It is driven in part by epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR), yet EGFR inhibitors that are effective against other cancers somehow fail to be effective against triple-negative breast cancer.
Researchers from Eilean Therapeutics LLC and collaborators presented the discovery and characterization of a new, selective CDK2 inhibitor showing potent in vitro and in vivo activity at the 2025 AACR-NCI-EORTC International Conference on Molecular Targets and Cancer Therapeutics.
At the AACR-NCI-EORTC International Conference on Molecular Targets and Cancer Therapeutics, researchers from Onco3r Therapeutics BV presented a novel series of selective SMARCA2 small-molecule inhibitors with a best-in-class potency and selectivity profile.
Though immune checkpoint inhibitors have improved the outcomes of patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), the response rates remain limited. At the annual meeting of the American Association for the Study of Liver Diseases, researchers highlighted N-lysine methyltransferase SMYD2 as an oncogenic protein overexpressed in several tumor types.
With phase I/II data in hand, Taiho Pharmaceutical Co. Ltd. and Cullinan Therapeutics Inc. began filing a rolling NDA to the U.S. FDA for accelerated approval of zipalertinib to treat patients with locally advanced or metastatic non-small-cell lung cancer with epidermal growth factor receptor exon 20 insertion mutations who previously received platinum-based chemotherapy.
It’s the biological resource that keeps on giving, and now UK Biobank has released the final tranche of data on the levels of 249 metabolites in the blood of its half a million participants.
Crossfire Oncology BV has divulged proteolysis targeting chimera (PROTAC) compounds comprising an E3 ubiquitin ligase binding moiety covalently linked to a serine/threonine-protein kinase PLK1 (STPK13) targeting moiety through a linker reported to be useful for the treatment of cancer, autoimmune diseases, transplant rejection, neurological disorders and inflammatory disorders.
