Deep molecular advances are enabling precision medicine for the field of hematology, Wyndham Wilson said during a plenary session at the 2026 Korean Society of Hematology International Conference March 26.

Just over a month after emerging from stealth and disclosing a $150 million series A, Korsana Biosciences Inc. is making the leap to the public market via a merger with Cyclerion Therapeutics Inc.  The agreement, which is backed by a $370 million private placement from Korsana’s investors, solidly positions the newly merged company as it heads toward the clinic with KRSA-028, a next-generation shuttled antibody targeting amyloid beta for the treatment of Alzheimer’s disease, and builds out a pipeline of neurodegenerative disease candidates.

Infinimmune Inc. has recently presented results at the annual American Academy of Dermatology conference regarding their anti-IL-22 antibody IFX-101 for the treatment of atopic dermatitis.

Multispecifics took center stage at this year’s ESMO TAT, emerging as one of the hottest trends in oncology research. Unlike traditional small-molecule drugs or monoclonal antibodies that typically target a single protein, multispecific compounds are engineered to harness multiple mechanisms of action within a single molecule. They orchestrate biology rather than just blocking it.

Newco Idel Therapeutics GmbH has closed a €9 million (US$10.4 million) seed round to advance the development of a technology for delivery of cytotoxic drugs directly into the cytosol of tumor cells.

After previous setbacks with the program, investors largely brushed aside ocular-focused Kodiak Sciences Inc.’s anticipated phase III Glow2 data of tarcocimab tedromer in diabetic retinopathy (DR), so the positive top-line superiority results revealed March 26 caught many by surprise as it sets the company up for an accelerated multi-indication BLA submission.

To overcome the limitations regarding conventional immunotherapy for treating tauopathies, researchers from Sanofi SA aimed to improve brain exposure and targeting pathological tau species by optimizing antibody design.

Discoveric Bio Alpha Ltd. and collaborators have presented data regarding the rationale and design of NIDB-3101, a third-generation, human IgG1 anti-tau biparatopic antibody for the treatment of Alzheimer’s disease (AD).
