Researchers from University of Athens and National Centre For Scientific Research “Demokritos” have reported preclinical data from a study that aimed to assess the novel cryptochrome-2 (CRY2) stabilizer TH-301 in models of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC). It was seen that treatment with TH-301 led to significant dose-, time- and cell type-dependent decreases in viability.
Oxford Drug Design Ltd. has announced additional in vivo validation for its novel approach against cancer. The innovative approach, using generative AI capabilities, is based on the novel target leucyl-tRNA synthetase.
Axcynsis Therapeutics Pte Ltd. has gained IND clearance from the FDA for AT03-65 for the treatment of patients with CLDN6-positive solid tumors. Axcynsis is planning to initiate a phase I trial in the U.S. during the current quarter in patients with advanced CLDN6-positive solid tumors.
