The KRAS G12D mutation is the most common oncogenic KRAS variant, identified in approximately 34% of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma cases, 12% of colorectal cancers and 4% of lung adenocarcinomas.
KAT6A and its paralogue KAT6B are histone acetyltransferases whose overexpression is linked to poor prognosis in ER+/HER2- breast cancer and other types of tumors.
The KRAS G12D mutation is the most common oncogenic KRAS variant, identified in approximately 34% of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma cases, 12% of colorectal cancers and 4% of lung adenocarcinomas.
Cadherin 17 (CDH17) is a membrane-bound cell adhesion molecule involved in tumor cell proliferation and is selectively overexpressed in several gastrointestinal malignancies, including colorectal cancer, gastric cancer and pancreatic cancer.
Researchers from Jiangsu Hengrui Pharmaceuticals Co. Ltd. reported the discovery of SHR-3591, an orally bioavailable AR proteolysis targeting chimera (PROTAC) designed to treat prostate tumors.
PARP inhibitors have been approved for the treatment of several cancers, including ovarian, breast, pancreatic and prostate cancers with BRCA mutations or other homologous recombination repair deficiencies (HRD). However, their therapeutic potential is limited by challenges such as hematologic toxicity and lack of target selectivity.
Programmed cell death protein 1 (PD-1) and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) are often co-expressed in the tumor microenvironment. The combination of anti-PD-1 and anti-VEGF agents has been evaluated in patients with advanced non-small-cell lung cancer, with promising results from agents like ivonescimab, a PD-1/VEGF bispecific antibody.
The transcriptional repressor B-cell lymphoma 6 (BCL6) plays a central role in the development and progression of various B-cell malignancies, particularly diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL), where it is associated with poor prognosis and resistance to standard immunochemotherapy.
SMARCA4 and SMARCA2 are essential subunits of the SWI/SNF complex, functioning as ATP-dependent chromatin remodelers that regulate gene expression and maintain cellular homeostasis. Recent research has shown that selectively targeting SMARCA2 is an effective cancer treatment strategy, with several compounds already in early clinical testing.
Aberrant signaling by fibroblast growth factor receptors (FGFRs) drives tumor cell survival and proliferation in several cancers, making them promising therapeutic targets.
