Cyted Health Ltd. raised $44 million in a series B financing round to expand the reach of Endosign, its capsule sponge technology, in the U.S. Endosign is a minimally invasive device used to collect cell samples from the esophagus for the early detection of esophageal diseases, offering the potential to transform early cancer detection and improve health outcomes.
Telix Pharmaceuticals Ltd. received an FDA complete response letter (CRL) a day after the Aug. 27 PDUFA date for its BLA for radiopharmaceutical renal cancer imaging agent, Zircaix (TLX250-CDx, 89Zr-DFO-girentuximab).
Researchers from the University of California, Davis (UC-Davis) continue to assemble intellectual property in support of their development of methods and techniques which improve the accuracy of wearable sensor technologies.

Billiontoone Inc.’s Northstar Select comprehensive genomic profiling liquid biopsy assay identified more treatable variants than other tumor profiling platforms in a study published in The Journal of Liquid Biopsy. Notably, the test found clinically actionable alterations substantially below the limit of detection for other tests.
Technische Universität München has described conjugates comprising a silicone-based fluoride acceptor (SiFA)-based peptide targeting moiety covalently linked to radiolabeled chelating agents through a divalent linker.
Shanghai Fosun Pharmaceutical Industry Development Co. Ltd. has identified drug-conjugates comprising a radionuclide-labeled molecular probe linked to ligand targeting fibroblast activation protein α (FAP) through a linker reported to be useful for the treatment and diagnosis of cancer.
Hepatocellular carcinomas (HCCs) are challenging to diagnose due to the tumor heterogeneity and unnoticeable early symptoms. Researchers from Anhui Medical University have developed a novel gallium 68 (68Ga)-labeled radiotracer, named [68Ga]DOTA-AngII, designed to improve the precision of HCC imaging.
Bio-Techne Corp. plans to sell its Exosome Diagnostics Inc. business to Mdxhealth SA for $15 million plus royalty payments, a steep cut from the $250 million the company paid to acquire Exodx in 2018. Mdxhealth estimates the unit will generate $20 million in revenue in 2026.
Deep learning tools for protein design can also be used to create molecules that bind to them. Certain peptides, such as intrinsically disordered proteins (IDPs), are challenging to target due to their variable nature. However, scientists from the lab of Nobel laureate David Baker have developed a method to generate binders for IDPs by searching the world’s largest protein database with their AI-powered tool RFdiffusion.
