Beijing Normal University presented data on fibroblast activation protein (FAP)-targeting agents containing a nitroimidazole moiety, [68Ga]/[177Lu]AAZTA-NI-FAPI-04, being developed for the potential imaging and treatment of cancer.
Scientists from the University of Wisconsin-Madison have reported the discovery of novel carbonic anhydrase IX (CAIX) radioligands for molecular imaging in clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC).
Researchers from Eli Lilly & Co. presented the discovery and preclinical characterization of a novel protein tyrosine kinase 7 (PTK7)-targeting antibody-drug conjugate (ADC), LY-4175408, being developed for the treatment of cancer.
Iksuda Therapeutics Ltd. disclosed the design of a novel, effective and safe antibody-drug conjugate (ADC), IKS-012, for the potential treatment of folate receptor α (FRα)-positive cancers.
Researchers from Qingdao University described the discovery and preclinical characterization of a novel series of tubulin polymerization inhibitors that led to the identification of [I] as the most potent compound.
Tevogen Bio Inc. has begun preclinical efforts for TVGN-920, its first oncology product. The company is leveraging Microsoft’s artificial intelligence (AI) and cloud technologies to accelerate its target identification and preclinical processes in human papillomavirus (HPV).
Avacta Life Sciences (Avacta Group plc) presented preclinical data on AVA-6103, a second-generation Precision peptide-drug conjugate, being developed for the potential treatment of cancer. AVA-6103 was developed using the company’s proprietary Precision technology incorporating a dipeptide specifically cleaved by fibroblast activation protein α (FAPα) leading to tumor-specific delivery of exatecan directly into the tumor cells.
Extending its cash runway into 2026, Sana Biotechnology Inc. is prioritizing certain autoimmune assets and punting an oncology program and a central nervous system diseases program to a potential licensing partner or spinout company.
Researchers from Liaoning Jinqiu Hospital and affiliated organizations explored potential new genetic targets in heart failure and breast cancer through combining genetic inference and single-cell expression analysis. Genome-wide association study (GWAS) identified multiple genetic variants that were causally related in heart failure and breast cancer.
