Scientists at Hansoh Bio LLC, Hansoh Pharmaceutical Group Co. Ltd. and Shanghai Hansoh Biomedical Co. Ltd. have disclosed antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) comprising HER3 (erbB3)-targeting antibodies linked to a cytotoxic drug through a linker.
Bispecific T-cell-engaging antibodies have emerged as therapeutic options for the treatment of cancer, but limitations such as short half-life remain to be addressed. Researchers from Biontech SE reported the preclinical pharmacology and efficacy of BNT-142, a bispecific antibody targeting claudin-6 (CLDN6) and the T-cell marker CD3.
Merck Sharp & Dohme LLC has described antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) comprising antibodies targeting tumor-associated calcium signal transducer 2 (TACSTD2; TROP2) linked to exatecan through a linker reported to be useful for the treatment of cancer.
Scientists at the Institute of Cancer Research have generated a proteolysis targeting chimera (PROTAC) that successfully destroyed RIPK1 in cancer cells.
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 Iomx Therapeutics AG presented the discovery and preclinical evaluation of IOMX-0675, a novel LILRB1 and LILRB2 cross-specific antibody being developed for the treatment of solid tumors.
Genmab A/S, in collaboration with Biontech SE, has presented data on a novel OX40 agonist antibody –Hexabody-OX40 (GEN-1055/BNT-315), developed using Genmab’s proprietary Hexabody platform, which promotes the formation of antibody hexamers upon target binding to cell surfaces.
Ygion Biomedical GmbH has completed a series A financing round of €15 million (US$ 16.3 million) to support the development of individualized neoantigen-based cancer vaccines.
