Researchers from Tokyo Medical University presented data from a study that assessed microRNA (miRNA) profiles in extracellular vesicles (EVs) isolated from vitreous humor and serum of patients with ocular sarcoidosis and vitreoretinal lymphoma (VRL).
Researchers at Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis have received a $5 million grant from the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society (LLS) to support research aimed at developing new immunotherapies for different types of blood-based cancers.
Ajax Therapeutics Inc. has received clearance for its IND application from the FDA to initiate a phase I study of AJ1‑11095, a first-in-class type II JAK2 inhibitor, for the treatment of patients with myelofibrosis.
Killer immunoglobulin-like receptor (KIR)-chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cell therapies have previously demonstrated superior performance and functional persistence in solid tumor models, and the mesothelin-specific KIR-CAR T cells, Synkir-110, are now being evaluated in phase I trials by Verismo Therapeutics Inc.
Researchers from the University of Florida have developed a novel mRNA cancer vaccine that aims to reprogram the immune system to target and attack cancer cells effectively. The study led by Elias Sayour reported a new mRNA vaccine design where the mRNA payload was wrapped into a multilamellar vesicle within an onion-like hierarchical structure. The findings were published in the May 9, 2024 issue of Cell.
Zhuhai Yufan Biotechnologies Co. Ltd. has divulged mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase kinase kinase 1 (MAP4K1; HPK1; MEKKK1) inhibitors reported to be useful for the treatment of cancer, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, AIDS, hemolytic anemia, psoriasis, scleroderma, systemic lupus erythematosus and ulcerative colitis, among others.
Allorion Therapeutics (Guangzhou) Co. Ltd. has identified phosphoramidate compounds targeting aldo-keto reductase family 1 member C3 (AKR1C3; 17β-HSD5) reported to be useful for the treatment of cancer.
Université de Montréal has disclosed serine/threonine-protein kinase A-Raf, (ARAF) and/or B-Raf (BRAF) and/or RAF proto-oncogene serine/threonine-protein kinase (c-Raf) inhibitors reported to be useful for the treatment of cancer.
Researchers from Indiana University presented data from a study that aimed to assess the therapeutic potential of interleukin-9 (IL-9) blockade in the context of lung cancer.
Researchers from Xiangya Hospital of Central South University published data from a study that explored potential treatment targets for cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma (cSCC) by investigating the regulatory mechanisms of follistatin-like 1 (FSTL1), which has been shown to be implicated in a variety of cancers.
