Ariel Scientific Innovations Ltd. has synthesized microtubule destabilizers (tubulin polymerization inhibitors) reported to be useful for the treatment of cancer.
Multiple myeloma (MM) is still an uncurable disease. Chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cells directed to tumor necrosis factor receptor superfamily member 17, also known as BCMA, have transformed the field, with high response rate and durable remissions, but the access to this therapy is limited by multiple factors.
The FDA has cleared Oncoc4 Inc.’s IND application for ONC-841, a potential first-in-class Siglec-10-blocking antibody for the treatment of solid tumors.
Researchers from Kirilys Therapeutics Inc. presented findings from the preclinical evaluation of KRLS-017, a novel reversible cyclin-dependent kinase 7 (CDK7) inhibitor being developed for the treatment of advanced solid tumors.
Lung cancer is still among the deadliest cancers worldwide, with squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) of the lung accounting for about 30% of the cases. When the cancer metastasizes to the lymph nodes, the patient has a worse overall survival.
Researchers from Lund University published data from a study that investigated the role of cartilage oligomeric matrix protein (COMP), an extracellular matrix glycoprotein associated with the aggressiveness of several types of solid tumors, in ovarian cancer.
IFM Due Inc. has described proteolysis targeting chimera (PROTAC) compounds comprising cereblon (CRBN) ligands covalently linked to a stimulator of interferon genes protein (STING; TMEM173)-targeting moiety through a linker.
Researchers from Royal College of Surgeons in Ireland (RCSI) have created a new orthotopic preclinical model of glioblastoma (GBM), designed to recapitulate patient response to standard-of-care and targeted treatments.
