Genescience Pharmaceuticals Co. Ltd. has identified phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase α (PI3Kα) inhibitors, particularly PI3Kα (H1047R mutant), reported to be useful for the treatment of cancer and PIK3CA-related overgrowth spectrum.
Scientists at Atmosr SAS and Medetia SAS have synthesized adenine derivatives acting as heat shock protein 90 (HSP90) inhibitors reported to be useful for the treatment of cancer, neurodegenerative diseases, infections, myelofibrosis, acute pancreatitis, psoriasis and ROHHAD (rapid-onset obesity, hypothalamic dysfunction, hypoventilation, autonomic dysregulation).
Chengdu Zeling Biomedical Technology Co. Ltd. has disclosed NLRP3 inflammasome inhibitors reported to be useful for the treatment of cancer, inflammatory, autoimmune, cardiovascular, renal, gastrointestinal, respiratory and neurological disorders.
Claudin-6 (CLDN6) is a tight junction protein that has been found to be up-regulated in around 20 different types of cancer, among them ovarian, endometrial and germ cell tumors. Conventional T-cell engagers (TCEs), although effective, may be improved with costimulation to overcome T-cell exhaustion due to CDE3 stimulation alone.
Avacta Group plc has expanded its pipeline of Precision-enabled drug conjugates with the addition of two novel preclinical oncology assets, AVA-6103 and AVA-7100. The company’s peptide-drug conjugates (PDCs) comprise a payload linked to the Precision peptide, which is cleaved only within the tumor by the action of fibroblast activation protein (FAP).
Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) recurs in most patients despite the aggressive therapies they receive. Novel advances allow the development of targeted therapies to treat tumors of the brain. Researchers from the Johns Hopkins School of Medicine have applied bioinformatics plus forward thinking on microRNA biology to advance targeted therapies for GBM.
Genetic Intelligence Inc. has described compounds acting as IL-2 expression or activity modulators reported to be useful for the treatment of cancer, infections, autoimmune diseases and inflammatory disorders.
Ventus Therapeutics US Inc. has divulged NLRP3 inflammasome inhibitors reported to be useful for the treatment of cancer, metabolic diseases, autoimmune diseases, and liver, renal, respiratory, cardiovascular and inflammatory disorders, among others.
