Apogee Pharmaceuticals Inc. has disclosed monoglyceride lipase (MGLL; MAGL) inhibitors reported to be useful for the treatment of neurodegeneration, neuropathy, ischemia, and metabolic, eye, lung, inflammatory and renal disorders, among others.
Researchers from Corteria Pharmaceuticals SAS and Université Paris-Saclay recently presented the preclinical results on a long-acting corticotropin-releasing factor CRF2 receptor agonist, COR-1389.
DNA polymerase θ (POLθ), repressed in somatic cells and overexpressed in several types of cancer, is crucial for DNA double-strand break repair during mitosis.
The TRPV6 calcium channel is overexpressed in several types of cancer deriving from epithelia where calcium control is unbalanced, such as prostate, colon or breast cancer, among others.
Medigene AG has obtained FDA clearance of its IND application for lead program MDG-1015 for the treatment of advanced gastric cancer, ovarian cancer, myxoid/round cell liposarcoma and synovial sarcoma.
Abdera Therapeutics Inc.’s ABD-147 has been granted U.S. orphan drug designation for the treatment of neuroendocrine carcinoma. ABD-147 is a next-generation precision radiopharmaceutical biologic therapy designed to deliver actinium-225 (225Ac) to solid tumors expressing DLL3.
Novartis AG described the identification and activity of TAK-756, a novel, selective and potent TAK1 inhibitor, as a potential intra-articular therapy for the treatment of osteoarthritis. Previous studies demonstrated that TAK1 appears to be a potential target for controlling inflammation and catabolism through NF-κB and MAPK pathways.
Nextpoint Therapeutics Inc. has unveiled NPX-372, a novel T-cell engager for solid tumors.
