Investigators at Nanjing Medical University and The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center recently published data from their research that aimed to identify novel immunotherapy targets in triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC).
Metastasis is the leading cause of mortality in patients with small-cell lung cancer (SCLC), with limited therapeutic options available. SCLC is characterized by a high proliferation rate, early metastasis and poor prognosis.
Researchers from Nuvalent Inc. reported preclinical data of NVL-655, a next-generation anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK) tyrosine kinase inhibitors with IC50 of 0.9 and 1.8 nM against ALK wild-type (WT) and ALK G1202R/L1196M, respectively.
Adcencdo ApS has obtained FDA clearance of its IND application for ADCE-D01 in patients with metastatic and/or unresectable soft tissue sarcoma (STS). A first-in-human phase I/II study in patients with metastatic and/or unresectable STS will recruit in the U.S. and Europe.
Cyclin-dependent kinases 12 and 13 (CDK12 and CDK13) are involved in the regulation of transcription elongation, DNA damage response and genomic stability balance. A few inhibitors of CDK12- and CDK13-mediated transcription have shown antiproliferative effects in the preclinical setting but have not progressed to clinical testing due to excessive toxicity.
Certis Oncology Solutions Inc. filed for protection of its artificial intelligence platform that utilizes big data, statistical algorithms, and machine learning to predict drug efficacy based on gene expression biomarkers.
Research into the regulation of gene expression experienced a significant breakthrough with the discovery of microRNA, small RNA molecules that do not code for proteins but control their translation. This finding has earned its authors Victor Ambros and Gary Ruvkun the 2024 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine.
Shanghai Synergy Pharmaceutical Sciences Co. Ltd. and Zhejiang Huahai Pharmaceutical Co. Ltd. have jointly disclosed new nucleoside prodrugs reported to be useful for the treatment of cancer.
A Boehringer Ingelheim Pharma GmbH & Co. KG patent describes new phenylpiperidine derivatives acting as glutaminyl-peptide cyclotransferase (QPCT; QC) and glutaminyl-peptide cyclotransferase-like protein (QPCTL; IsoQC) inhibitors.
Hyundai Pharmaceutical Co. Ltd. has patented probable global transcription activator SNF2L2 (SMARCA2; BAF190B; SNF2-α) inhibitors reported to be useful for the treatment of cancer.
