Looking beyond traditional oncogenic pathways to break cancer resistance

Drug Target Review

Most targeted cancer therapies used today operate by inhibiting targets along well-known oncogenic signalling cascades. The reactivation of oncogenic signalling upstream or downstream of the driving oncogene is a well-studied source of resistance to targeted cancer therapies.

The new approach in cancer therapy with innovative mechanism-of-action for ferroptosis induction

The Pharma Data

The new approach in cancer therapy with innovative mechanism-of-action for ferroptosis induction A team of researchers led by Dr. Marcus Conrad from Helmholtz Munich discovered a novel anti-cancer drug, called icFSP1, which sensitizes cancer cells to ferroptosis. Source link: [link]

The future of lymphoma treatment

Drug Target Review

We use hydrophilic linkers, which prevent ADC aggregation and generate highly stable ADCs, in combination with a unique attachment site on the antibody to create ADCs that retain pharmacokinetic properties similar to the original unconjugated antibody. This helps to maximize the targeted payload delivery to tumor cells.

Biochemical assays and deep cyclic inhibition in cancer treatment

Drug Target Review

These assays provide insights into the molecular mechanisms of disease biology and drug response, enabling the characterisation of gene expression profiles and deviations in diseased cells. Importantly, transcriptomics information shows that certain aspects of a disease change the gene expression profile.
