Bladder cancer is a challenging disease that poses significant risks to patients, often leading to a grim prognosis. Recent research has brought attention to chaperonin-containing tailless complex polypeptide 1 subunit 3 (CCT3), identified as an oncogene in multiple tumor types. However, its specific role in bladder cancer remains largely unexplored.
Benobio Co. Ltd. has discovered new benzothiophene derivatives acting as bromodomain-containing protein 2 (BD1 domain) (Brd2 BD1) inhibitors reported to be useful for the treatment of cancer.
Elgen Therapeutics Inc. has patented new 4-chromanone derivative proteolysis targeting chimera (PROTAC) compounds comprising a von Hippel-Lindau disease tumor suppressor (VHL)-binding moiety coupled with a WD repeat-containing protein 5 (WDR5; BIG3)-targeting moiety through a linker.
Work at Tango Therapeutics Inc. has led to the identification of new ubiquitin carboxyl-terminal hydrolase 1 (USP1) inhibitors reported to be useful for the treatment of cancer.
Eterna Therapeutics Inc. has announced plans to evaluate the ability of ERNA-101 to induce and modulate antitumor immunity in ovarian cancer and breast cancer models through a sponsored research agreement with The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center.
Kinnate Biopharma Inc. and affiliated organizations recently reported preclinical data for the novel brain-penetrant combination therapy using the MEK inhibitor KIN-7136 and the RAF inhibitor KIN-8391, as a novel therapeutic strategy for the treatment of melanoma brain metastasis.
In breast cancer, neoadjuvant chemotherapy reduces the tumor before surgery. However, the response to this treatment does not depend solely on the subtype of malignancies. Other factors could play a key role in its effectiveness, as shown in a study that described how the estrous cycle phases contribute to this variation. The researchers propose adjusting the approach to the most suitable moment for patients.
