Carisma Therapeutics Inc. has received FDA clearance of its IND application for CT-0525, an ex vivo gene-modified autologous chimeric antigen receptor (CAR)-monocyte cellular therapy intended to treat solid tumors that overexpress human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2).
Pemphigus vulgaris is an autoimmune skin disease mediated by autoantibodies to desmoglein-3 (DSG3). Since the adult murine model of this disease is quite limited, researchers aimed to develop a novel active adult pemphigus vulgaris murine model.
Researchers from Karolinska Institutet and collaborators have reported on the characterization of novel human anti-CD44v6 antibodies aimed to be used as anticancer agents in the radiotherapy of CD44v6-expressing cancers.
Vidac Pharma Holding plc has announced results from an in vitro study of VDA-1275 in combination with chemotherapeutic agents to treat solid tumors. VDA-1275 is a potent small molecule that reverses cancer cell hyper glycolytic metabolism (Warburg effect).
A mouse line with severe haploinsufficiency of about 92% reduction in coiled-coil and C2 domain-containing protein 1A (CC2D1A) expression was generated by breeding of Cc2d1a-knockout allele with C2d1a -/V5-HA mice to generate a compound heterozygous murine model of autism spectrum disorder (ASD).
Previous research has demonstrated the promise of using carbon monoxide (CO) as an anticancer therapeutic agent, with reactive oxygen species (ROS)-activated CO prodrugs representing a new targeted cancer treatment strategy. In the current study, researchers from Georgia State University presented the discovery and preclinical evaluation of novel ROS-activated metal-free CO prodrugs.
Novartis AG has divulged pyrazolopyrimidine derivatives acting as methylcytosine dioxygenase TET2 inhibitors and thus reported to be useful for the treatment of cancer.
