Insights into cellular therapies for cancer treatment

Drug Target Review

Stem cell transplants have saved patients’ lives time and time again, which led us to launch our own Stem Cell Transplant and Cellular Therapy Program. Stem cell transplants primarily help the immune response through the “graft-versus-leukaemia effect,” and we have to manage the “graft versus host effect.”

Harnessing the CD24/Siglec-10 pathway: immunotherapy innovation

Drug Target Review

It is not known whether CD24 on cancer cells has a unique epitope that can be specifically targeted for cancer therapy. Combination therapy is the best approach in immunotherapy. Our extensive data showed that CD24 expressed on normal cells and cancer cells can be differentiated with our novel anti-CD24 antibody, ONC-781.

Utilising engineered peptides for immunotherapy

Drug Target Review

The combination of P1 with antiPD1 more efficiently activated innate and adaptive immune responses than either P1 or antiPD1 alone by re-energising T cell effector functions, thus providing the remarkable reduction of tumour growth in solid tumours and extended survival period.

Navigating the Challenges in Clinical Research for Hepatitis C Therapies

Vial

In the decades since its identification in 1989, advances in clinical research for new Hepatitis C therapies and the introduction of direct-acting antiviral agents (DAAs) have led to viral eradication in more than 98% of patients, resulting in HCV crossing from manageable to being the first curable , chronic viral infection.

CRISPR Tackles Diverse Single-Gene Conditions

PLOS: DNA Science

The end-of-year FDA approval of the first CRISPR-based therapy , for sickle cell disease, came a mere dozen years after Jennifer Doudna and Emmanuelle Charpentier introduced the technology. The microbes deploy them to dismantle the genetic material of infecting viruses, a little like an immune response.
