Radiopharm Theranostics Ltd. has reported preclinical data from studies with the Lu177-B7H3-monoclonal antibody (mAb) RV-01 demonstrating favorable biodistribution and showing that RV-01 maintained high tumor uptake.
Atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) remains a leading cause of mortality worldwide despite advances in managing classic risk factors and therapies lowering LDL-cholesterol. Inhibiting angiopoietin-like protein 4 (ANGPTL4), a key regulator of triglyceride metabolism, is emerging as a potential strategy to treat atherogenic dyslipidemia and lower ASCVD risk.
The U.S. Army Medical Research Institute of Infectious Diseases (USAMRIID) and medical research charity Lifearc have announced a collaboration to develop an affordable and accessible monoclonal antibody (mAb) therapeutic for Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever virus (CCHFV).
In a roadmap to change animal testing requirements for INDs, the U.S. FDA said its new approach will improve drug safety, hasten the evaluation process, and lower costs for companies and patients. It’s another step in a process of changing rules put in place decades ago.
Writing in Cell Reports, researchers from the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) and collaborators have presented a multifaceted analysis and structure-function study of a panel of human monoclonal antibodies (hmAbs) targeting AMA1 elicited by natural Plasmodium falciparum infection in a malaria-endemic region in Mali.
In a study published in Nature Neuroscience, researchers from Tiziana Life Sciences Ltd. and collaborators investigated the potential of nasal delivery of the CD3 foralumab to reduce neuroinflammation and enhance microglial phagocytosis in a traumatic brain injury (TBI) model.
APG-777 is an anti-IL-13 humanized monoclonal antibody (mAb) designed to block Th2 inflammatory signaling mediated by the IL-13Rα1/IL-4Rα complex, while APG-990 is a fully human anti-OX40L mAb that that blocks type 1/2/3 inflammatory signaling. Apogee Therapeutics Inc. is studying the combination effects of APG-777 and APG-990 as potential therapy for atopic dermatitis (AD).
Atopic dermatitis (AD) is a chronic, inflammatory skin condition driven by complex immune mechanisms involving T cells. In the context of AD, OX40, a costimulatory receptor present on activated T cells, supports the function of inflammatory T cells, exacerbating skin dysfunction. Researchers from Astria Therapeutics Inc. presented the preclinical characterization of STAR-0310, a humanized monoclonal IgG1 antibody targeting OX40.
Researchers from Vicero Inc. have developed a Vincobody platform, which allows for design of novel proprietary VHH antibody fragments that possess the efficacy of dual checkpoint blockade while mitigating the toxicity limitations of current monoclonal antibody therapies.
