Researchers from Hebei Normal University and affiliated organizations presented the discovery and preclinical characterization of a novel B lymphoma Mo-MLV insertion region 1 (Bmi-1) expression inhibitor, APD-94, designed as an agent that could potentially overcome drug resistance in patients with colorectal cancer.
With the first company in the world announcing more than $1 billion in annual revenue from pulsed field ablation on Feb. 5, Clarivate plc and BioWorld MedTech’s latest report provides well-timed insight into the stunning growth and bright future of this new medical technology for the treatment of atrial fibrillation.
The University of Minnesota has patented flavones having senolytic activity that are described as useful for the treatment of aging and Hutchinson-Gilford progeria syndrome.
Heterocyclic insulin-like growth factor 1 receptor (IGF-1R; CD221) inhibitors potentially useful for the treatment of thyroid-associated ophthalmopathy (Graves’ ophthalmopathy) have been disclosed in a Horizon Therapeutics Ltd. patent.
Work at Exelixis Inc. has led to the development of antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) comprising antibodies targeting interleukin-13 receptor subunit α2 (IL-13RA2, IL-13R-α2) covalently linked to a payload. They are described as potentially useful for the treatment of non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC).
Brii Biosciences Inc. has identified substituted 2-(3,5-dichloro-4-(4-hydroxy-benzyl)phenoxy)acetamide derivatives that are prodrugs of thyroid hormone receptor β (TH-β) agonists and reported to be useful for the treatment of multiple sclerosis.
Multiple sulfatase deficiency is an autosomal recessive lysosomal storage disorder caused by homozygous or compound heterozygous loss-of-function mutations in the SUMF1 gene, which encodes formylglycine generating enzyme (FGE), which catalyzes the post-translational modification of all known 17 sulfatases.
Heart disease remains the leading cause of death worldwide, and developing new therapeutic approaches constitutes an urgent healthcare priority. Almost one-third of patients surviving myocardial infarction (MI) develop heart failure (HF), in part due to damage caused by the accumulation of dysfunctional mitochondria.
Researchers from Wuyi University presented the discovery and preclinical characterization of kinesin spindle protein (KSP) degraders developed using proteolysis-targeting chimera (PROTAC) technology.
