Researchers from Assembly Biosciences Inc. presented the discovery and preclinical characterization of novel small-molecule hepatitis B (HBV) and D virus (HDV) entry inhibitors.
HER2 is a receptor tyrosine kinase and well-established oncogenic driver with mutations present in various types of tumors such as bladder urothelial carcinoma, uterine corpus endometrial carcinoma, stomach adenocarcinoma and breast cancer.
Targeting TEAD with small-molecule inhibitors is an emerging therapeutic strategy for YAP/TAZ-dependent human cancers with Hippo pathway alterations. Bridgene Biosciences Inc. identified three hits with the Isobaric Mass Tagged Affinity Characterization (IMTAC) screening platform that covalently bound to TEAD1 with the binding site being cysteine 359, which led to the BGI-9004 compound.
Researchers from the University of Saskatchewan have developed a novel theranostic candidate, [67Cu]EB-TATE, as an alternative to [177Lu]DOTATATE, for the imaging of gastroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (GEP-NET). EB-TATE, which is a derivative of octreotate with evans blue (EB), was radiolabeled with electron linear accelerator-produced 67CuCl2.
Researchers from Qualigen Therapeutics Inc. and University of Louisville presented the discovery and preclinical evaluation of a novel pan-RAS inhibitor...
