Sonnet Biotherapeutics Holdings Inc. has completed two IND-enabling toxicology studies in nonhuman primates (NHPs) using its lead bifunctional therapeutic candidate, SON-1210.
Researchers from Zhongnan Hospital of Wuhan University reported data from a study that aimed to evaluate the therapeutic efficiency of organic arsenic compounds for the treatment of osteosarcoma.
Recurv Pharma Inc. is set to receive investment of up to $24 million from TVM Capital Life Science GmbH to support development up to phase IIa proof of concept of RP-001 to treat solid tumors.
New understanding of how prostate cancer adapts to the stress of androgen receptor targeted drugs and becomes castrate-resistant, points to a lesser-studied family of lipid kinases as playing a pivotal role in this process. The findings indicate that specific inhibition of one isoform of these phosphatidylinositol-5-phosphate-4-kinases (PI5P4K) could provide a route to prevent cancer cells altering their metabolism and becoming resistant to androgen deprivation.
Sirnaomics Ltd. is gearing up to start either an expanded phase IIb or a phase III clinical trial for its lead siRNA candidate, STP-705, for the treatment of two non-melanoma skin cancers: squamous cell carcinoma in situ and basal cell carcinoma. STP-705 comprises two siRNA oligonucleotides that inhibit transforming growth factor beta 1 and cyclooxygenase-2 gene expressions and is delivered via injection using what the company describes as a polypeptide nanoparticle-enhanced delivery mechanism.
New York-based Paige.AI Inc., was successful in its de novo application to the U.S. FDA for the company’s digital pathology software for identification of cancerous prostate tissue, but the agency needed nearly a year and a half after the September 2021 grant of de novo petition to post the regulation for this novel algorithm.
Precisedx Inc.’s digital artificial intelligence (AI) platform better predicts the recurrence of early-stage breast cancer within six years than traditional testing, a study published in Breast Cancer Research found. Understanding which patients with early-stage disease face significant risk of their cancer returning is important for guiding selection of treatment. The system reduces the variability inherent in histological characterization and grading of breast cancer (BC) today, thereby improving prognostic accuracy.
Cells that break away from a tumor and colonize other regions of the body express genes that are different from those of the cancer from which they originate. Now, a Baylor College of Medicine study has found that metastases can be classified into four cancer subtypes regardless of the primary cancer. This finding describes which genes are active in each one, making it possible to establish the most appropriate treatments for each patient according to the subtype of metastasis they have developed.
Ymmunobio AG has secured ownership of neuronal pentraxin receptor (NPTXR) antibodies after the company signed a transfer ownership agreement with Nagoya University for a license to NPTXR antibodies.
Coeptis Therapeutics Holdings Inc. has entered into a sponsored research agreement with the University of Pittsburgh to advance preclinical development of SNAP-CAR T cells targeting HER2, and to explore opportunities to expand the applicability of SNAP-CAR in oncology.
