Triastek Inc. and Biontech SE have entered into a research collaboration and platform technology license agreement for the development of RNA therapeutics for oral delivery based on Triastek’s Melt Extrusion Deposition (MED) 3D printing technology.
Large-scale human genetic studies have revealed that loss-of-function INHBE variants are associated with a lower abdominal to gluteofemoral fat ratio, improved metabolic profile, and reduced fasting glucose levels.
Molecure SA has confirmed the in vitro activity of a molecule binding to a new mRNA target within its mRNA discovery platform. This represents the discovery of another class of molecules binding to a second mRNA biological target, which has been confirmed in in vitro assays.
A preclinical trial in mice and ferrets of an experimental mRNA vaccine against the H5 highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) virus generated neutralizing antibodies and prevented severe illness and mortality of the animals.
Achilles Therapeutics plc has established a research collaboration with Arcturus Therapeutics Holdings Inc. to evaluate best-in-class, self-amplifying mRNA (sa-mRNA) personalized cancer vaccines targeting clonal neoantigens.
Researchers from Tokyo Medical University presented data from a study that assessed microRNA (miRNA) profiles in extracellular vesicles (EVs) isolated from vitreous humor and serum of patients with ocular sarcoidosis and vitreoretinal lymphoma (VRL).
Researchers from the University of Florida have developed a novel mRNA cancer vaccine that aims to reprogram the immune system to target and attack cancer cells effectively. The study led by Elias Sayour reported a new mRNA vaccine design where the mRNA payload was wrapped into a multilamellar vesicle within an onion-like hierarchical structure. The findings were published in the May 9, 2024 issue of Cell.
Wave Life Sciences Ltd. has reported that GSK plc has selected its first two programs to advance to development candidates following achievement of target validation as part of the companies’ ongoing collaboration.
Curevac NV and The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center have entered into a co-development and licensing agreement to develop novel mRNA-based cancer vaccines.
