B&A Oncomedical SAS has synthesized solute carrier family 12 member 2 (SLC12A2; NKCC1) inhibitors reported to be useful for the treatment of cancer, schizophrenia, autistic spectrum disorders, fragile X syndrome, Rett syndrome, Down syndrome, Parkinson’s disease and temporal lobe epilepsy, among others.
Genesis Therapeutics Inc. has disclosed phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase α (PI3Kα) (H1047R mutant) inhibitors reported to be useful for the treatment of cancer.
Suzhou Sanegene Bio Inc.’s clinical trial application for SGB-3908 injection, an siRNA drug for the treatment of hypertension, has been accepted in China by the National Medical Products Administration (NMPA)’s Center for Drug Evaluation (CDE).
α-Fetoprotein (AFP) is a tumor-associated antigen and an ideal target for T-cell receptor T-cell (TCR-T) therapy. While the safety of AFP-targeting TCR-T products has been previously demonstrated in early clinical trials, the efficacy of these cell therapies is still modest, warranting further research.
Previous findings had shown that injecting pepatin-1 prevented the death of retinal ganglion cells (RGCs) in rats with ocular hypertension. Additionally, transcriptomic analysis in RGCs revealed cAMP response element-binding protein (CREB) signaling to be activated by peptain-1 conjugated with a cell-penetrating peptide, named P1-CPP.
Saniona AB has initiated preclinical development of SAN-2355, a potential best-in-class and new-generation Kv7.2/Kv7.3 activator for the treatment of focal onset seizures.
