Bivictrix Therapeutics plc’s BVX-001, a first-in-class Bi-Cygni bispecific antibody-drug conjugate (ADC) for the treatment of acute myeloid leukemia (AML), has demonstrated a favorable toxicity profile in an industry standard toxicology model.
Shanghai Fudan-Zhangjiang Bio-Pharmaceutical Co. Ltd. has received IND clearance in China by the National Medical Products Administration (NMPA) to conduct a phase I trial of its antibody-drug conjugate (ADC) FZ-AD005 for advanced solid tumors.
Researchers from Sun Yat-sen University Cancer Center (SYSUCC) presented data from a study that aimed to assess the role of trophoblast cell-surface antigen-2 (TROP-2) in penile squamous cell carcinoma (PSCC).
Merck KGaA has announced it is advancing M-3554, a potential first-in-class anti-GD2 antibody-drug conjugate (ADC), toward the clinic. M-3554 links an exatecan payload with an anti-GD2 antibody.
Almac Discovery Ltd. has nominated a new preclinical candidate molecule, ALM-401, a first-in-class bispecific antibody-drug conjugate (ADC) targeting EGFR/ROR1. It is being developed for the treatment of refractory lung cancer characterized by dual expression of ROR1 and EGFR.
A group of scientists from Basel University Hospital have designed an antibody-drug conjugate (ADC) that eliminated blood cancer cells without attacking healthy hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs), which they modified by base editing and transplanted to renew an altered blood system. They achieved this by focusing on the panhematopoietic marker CD45.
Pheon Therapeutics Ltd. has completed a $120 million series B financing to fund the development of its pipeline of differentiated antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) for cancer through clinical proof of concept.
Even though HER3 is validated as a promising therapeutic target for cancer therapy, no HER3-targeting antibodies or antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) have been approved for clinical use. Investigators at Duality Biologics (Suzhou) Co. Ltd. have developed DB-1310, a new HER3-targeting ADC being studied for the treatment of solid tumors, and published findings from preclinical characterization.
Researchers from Sichuan Baili Pharmaceutical Co. Ltd. and Systimmune Inc. presented preclinical data for the novel CD33-targeting antibody-drug conjugate (ADC) being evaluated for the treatment of hematologic malignancies.
