Adlai Nortye Biopharma Co. Ltd. and Adlai Nortye Pte Ltd. have divulged cyclin-dependent kinase 2 (CDK2) and/or CDK4 and/or CDK6 inhibitors reported to be useful for the treatment of inflammatory disorders, immunological disorders and cancer.
Chengdu Chipscreen Pharmaceutical Ltd. has identified Werner syndrome ATP-dependent helicase (WRN; RECQ3; RECQL2) inhibitors reported to be useful for the treatment of cancer.
Abbisko Therapeutics Co. Ltd. has synthesized probable global transcription activator SNF2L2 (SMARCA2; BAF190B; SNF2-α) inhibitors reported to be useful for the treatment of cancer.
Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is a highly aggressive subtype affecting 15%-20% of breast cancer patients. TNBC patients harboring breast cancer susceptibility gene 1/2 (BRCA1/2) mutations have shown improved therapeutic response to poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) inhibitors (PARPi).
T cell-engaging bispecific antibodies (TCEs) are engineered molecules designed to bring cytotoxic T cells into proximity with tumor cells, triggering a targeted, antigen-dependent immune attack. However, TCE may activate T cells in healthy tissues, leading to off-tumor toxicity.
G1 to S phase transition 1 (GSPT1) is a protein involved in cell cycle progression, translation termination, and protein homeostasis, and its overexpression has been implicated in various cancers. Although GSPT1 is considered a promising therapeutic target, the lack of conventional ligand-binding pockets has historically rendered it undruggable.
IL-2 is clinically validated as an immunotherapeutic, but its use is limited by toxicity issues. AZD-6750 is an approach from Astrazeneca plc that applies cis-guiding to deliver a modified IL-2 mutein to CD8+ T cells.
Treatment in glioblastoma usually fails due to tumor heterogeneity and persistence of glioblastoma multiforme stem-like cells (GSCs) within the tumor margin. Researchers from Trogenix Ltd. engineered TGX-007, an AAV1-mediated therapeutic that delivers both cytotoxic and immunomodulatory genetic payloads to the tumor.
Nuage Therapeutics SL has secured €2.7 million (US$3.1 million) in funding from the Spanish State Research Agency (AEI) of the Ministry of Science, Innovation and Universities that will support a research project focused on developing a new drug against the most common subtype of small-cell lung cancer (SCLC-A), in collaboration with the Spanish National Cancer Research Centre (CNIO), the European Molecular Biology Laboratory (EMBL), and the Vall d’Hebron Institute of Oncology (VHIO).
Myrio Therapeutics Pty Ltd. has been able to accomplish something no other company has yet been able to crack: to develop binders where both the affinity and the specificity can be increased.
