The administration of a cross-reactive monoclonal antibody (MAb) protected hamsters and African green monkeys (AGM) several days after Nipah virus (NiV) infection.
The FDA has cleared Oncoc4 Inc.’s IND application for ONC-841, a potential first-in-class Siglec-10-blocking antibody for the treatment of solid tumors.
The leukocyte immunoglobulin-like receptor B2 (LILRB2), also known as ILT4, is an immunoreceptor tyrosine-based inhibitory motif (ITIM)-containing receptor that is widely expressed on immunosuppressive myeloid cells in the tumor microenvironment.
Spikimm SAS has signed an exclusive collaboration and license option agreement with SATT Conectus Alsace SAS for monoclonal antibodies targeting the BK virus. Reactivation of the BK virus (BKV) in patients receiving kidney transplant, bone marrow or stem cell grafts has potential serious consequences.
Shanghai Henlius Biotech Inc.’s IND application for HLX-6018, a novel anti-glycoprotein-A repetitions predominant (GARP)/transforming growth factor-β1 (TGF-β1) monoclonal antibody (mAb), has received approval by China’s National Medical Products Administration (NMPA) for the treatment of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF).
It has been previously demonstrated that TREM2 is extensively shed during chronic neuroinflammation, which hiders its function, while TREM2 activation enhances effector functions of microglia.
Tumors in the stomach and pancreas are known to express claudin 18.2 (CLDN18.2) and the absence of expression in normal tissues makes it an attractive therapeutic target.
T-cell-engaging antibodies (TCEs) are synthetic molecules that redirect T cells to bind to the antigens on the surface of cancer cells to promote tumor elimination. In the case of multiple myeloma (MM), the approvals of anti-CD38 monoclonal antibodies (MAbs), chimeric antigen receptor T-cell therapies (CAR T) targeting B-cell maturation antigen (BCMA) or, more recently, bispecific TCEs represent great advances, but some patients still relapse after treatment.
Monopar Therapeutics Inc. has received human research ethics committee (HREC) clearance in Australia to commence a first-in-human phase I dosimetry trial of its novel radiopharmaceutical MNPR-101-Zr in patients with advanced cancers.
