Nectin-4 antibody-drug conjugate (ADC) and checkpoint inhibitor combinations have represented a great advancement in the treatment of bladder cancer, but relapse and treatment-related toxicities underscore the need for new therapeutic strategies.
Researchers from Anaveon AG and affiliated organizations presented the discovery and preclinical characterization of ANV-700, a novel proximity-activated cytokine (PAC) compound designed to selectively deliver IL-21 to PD-1-expressing cells for the treatment of cancer.
Beijing Danatlas Pharmaceutical Technology Co. Ltd. has disclosed Werner syndrome ATP-dependent helicase (WRN; RECQ3; RECQL2) inhibitors reported to be useful for the treatment of cancer.
The company analyzed genomic data provided by the Fred Hutch Cancer Center and compiled by the Genetics and Epidemiology of Colorectal Cancer Consortium (GECCO) to identify mutational signatures and single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) predictive of colorectal cancer.
AGEN-1721 was designed as an Fc-enhanced bifunctional antibody to selectively target FAP and neutralize TGF-β via an optimized TGF-βR2 TRAP moiety fused to an engineered Fc region, with the aim of maximizing effector functions.
Researchers from SL Bigen Inc. and collaborators presented the preclinical characterization of BM-205, a novel entity of engineered MSCs designed to exert antitumor functions.
By comparing the transcriptomic profile of tissue regeneration after induced damage in the small intestine and colon with their transcriptomic landscape in their steady state, researchers have identified a pathway that unlinks tissue regeneration from tumorigenesis.
