Researchers at the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA), have developed a new type of allogeneic immune cell therapy that demonstrated potent antitumor activity against triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) in preclinical studies.
Adoptive cell therapy represents a major step forward in treating hematological cancers. Among its different approaches, chimeric antigen receptor natural killer (CAR-NK) cells are drawing growing interest.
Merck KGaA has prepared and tested new antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) comprising monoclonal antibodies targeting sodium-dependent phosphate transport protein 2B (SLC34A2; NaPi-2b) linked to exatecan through a β-glucuronidase cleavable linker. They are described as potentially useful for the treatment of ovarian and non-small-cell lung cancer.
In a recent publication in iScience, researchers from Peking University First Hospital investigated the therapeutic potential of SLC7A11 CAR T therapy for solid tumors, particularly colorectal and pancreatic cancers.
Kivu Bioscience Inc. has released new preclinical efficacy and safety data on KIVU-107, a novel PTK7-targeting antibody-drug conjugate with a DAR4 exatecan payload. KIVU-107 is designed to be highly stable in circulation with negligible free payload release, maximizing on-tumor activity while minimizing off-target toxicity.
Suzhou Genhouse Bio Co. Ltd. has described histone deacetylase 6 (HDAC6) inhibitors reported to be useful for the treatment of cancer, asthma, Alzheimer’s disease, diabetes, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, multiple sclerosis, pulmonary fibrosis and psoriasis, among others.
Activating Toll-like receptors (TLRs) with agonists can promote pro-inflammatory responses mediated by the adaptor protein MyD88 and the downstream effector NF-κB, and these responses can inhibit tumor growth.
