Nammi Therapeutics Inc. has announced a $1 million investment commitment by the Myeloma Investment Fund (MIF) in a $30 million series B financing round prior to the planned start of a first-in-human phase I study of the company’s QXL-138AM in patients with locally advanced unresectable and/or metastatic solid tumors and multiple myeloma.
Researchers from the University of Brescia have presented the discovery and preclinical characterization of novel fibroblast growth factor (FGF) trap small molecules, being developed for the treatment of multiple myeloma (MM).
Previous studies have suggested the importance of cholesterol metabolism in multiple myeloma (MM) cells. Since ferroptosis is closely related to lipid metabolism, researchers from Houston Methodist Research Institute aimed to investigate the crosstalk between metabolic reprogramming and ferroptosis in MM cells.
Nanjing, China-based Iaso Biotherapeutics Co. Ltd. has bought out global rights to human anti-B cell maturation antigen CAR T Fucaso (equecabtagene autoleucel) from partner Innovent Biologics Inc.

Oncopeptides AB has selected its first candidate drug based on the company’s unique platform for small polypeptide-based innate killer engagers (SPiKE). The SPiKE platform uses multispecific constructs, able to bind to multiple targets simultaneously.
CAR T-cell therapy that targets BCMA is an effective option for treating relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma, but there is a lack of persistence due to the inability to develop a memory phenotype.
CSPC Pharmaceutical Group Ltd. has obtained clearance from China’s National Medical Products Administration (NMPA) to conduct clinical trials in China with the first mRNA-lipid nanoparticles (LNP)-based CAR T-cell injection, SYS-6020.
Angiogenesis plays a crucial role in multiple myeloma and its prognosis, with the success of antiangiogenic therapies being limited. Exosomes mediate cell-to-cell cross talk during the progression of cancer by transporting their molecular cargo, which include long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs); their role in multiple myeloma was investigated.
Multiple myeloma (MM) is still an uncurable disease. Chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cells directed to tumor necrosis factor receptor superfamily member 17, also known as BCMA, have transformed the field, with high response rate and durable remissions, but the access to this therapy is limited by multiple factors.
