Invios GmbH and Dana-Farber Cancer Institute have entered into a preclinical research collaboration to evaluate Invios' immune-activating small molecule, INV-501, as a potential treatment for glioblastoma.
Abbisko Therapeutics Co. Ltd. has received clearance from China's National Medical Products Administration (NMPA) to conduct clinical trials in China of ABSK-051, a novel small-molecule CD73 inhibitor, for advanced solid tumors.
Aquinnah Pharmaceuticals Inc. has announced preclinical research findings for a novel small-molecule therapeutic designed to slow or stop the progression of Alzheimer's disease and related disorders.
Vyne Therapeutics Inc. has released promising new preclinical data on its oral small-molecule BD2-selective BET inhibitor, VYN-202, in preclinical models of psoriasis and rheumatoid arthritis. In a well-established model, a psoriasis phenotype was induced in BALB-C mice, and treatment was administered intraperitoneally with either VYN-202, the allosteric TYK2 inhibitor Sotykto (deucravacitinib, Bristol Myers Squibb Co.) or placebo.
Erasca Inc. has received FDA clearance of its IND application for ERAS-3490, an orally available small-molecule KRAS G12C inhibitor designed to have high central nervous system (CNS) penetration for the treatment of KRAS G12C-mutated solid tumors, including non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC).
Researchers from the University of Zaragoza and Promontory Therapeutics Inc. have discovered that PT-112, which has a multimodal mechanism of action, could have different clinical applications in cancer treatment due to its effects on mitochondria in castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC). PT-112 is an immunogenic small molecule currently in phase II development in metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC). The researchers designed PT-112 to target advanced solid tumors, such as thymus, small-cell, non-small-cell lung or CRPC.
Recent efforts have unveiled UCB-0022 (UCB Pharma Inc.) as an oral, brain-penetrant small molecule acting as a selective D1 positive allosteric modulator.
