Researchers from Shenzhen University and affiliated organizations detailed the preclinical characterization of a synergistic intravesical instillation of fenbendazole (FBZ) and CRISPR-Cas13a-based nanoplatform as a new strategy for the treatment of bladder cancer.

SN Bioscience Co. Ltd., headquartered in Seongnam-si, Gyeonggi-do’s second Pangyo Valley, gained U.S. FDA fast track designation for SNB-101 (SN-38), its new polymer nanoparticle cancer drug candidate for small-cell lung cancer.

Researchers from Jecho Laboratories Inc. and Shanghai Jiao Tong University reported the discovery of a novel anti-PD-L1/CXCR4 bispecific nanobody, BsNb PX-4, being developed for the treatment of cancer.

Shanghai-based nanobody specialist Novamab Biopharmaceuticals Co. Ltd. is developing a new neutralizing nanobody, Nb11-59, as a potential inhaled therapy for COVID-19 – a convenient treatment if developed successfully. Similar research is being conducted worldwide.

Two decades after the federal government jumpstarted U.S. R&D investment in its understanding and control of nanoscale matter, funding for the efforts across the government reached about $1.4 billion in fiscal 2020, part of a total cumulative investment of about $29 billion. Though FDA-budgeted nanotech research has accounted for just a fraction of that, at a modest $133 million since 2009, substantial advances have still been made, according to a presentation on the state of nanotech progress and innovation issued this summer.
