As antimicrobial resistance continues to advance, novel therapeutics are needed that stop infection and do not contribute to resistance. Australian biotech Recce Pharmaceuticals is paving the way for a new class of synthetic anti-infectives and providing hope for those with resistant infections. Recce’s lead candidate, RECCE® 327 (R327), is a…
A new immunotherapy approach combining co-engineered T cells and antibodies enhances phagocytosis of tumour cells.
In this Q&A, Pascaline Lécorché, Head of Chemical Biology at Vect-Horus, outlines the potential of RNA interference therapeutics and the challenges of their use in vivo. There are several strategies to overcome these, and why peptide-based vectors targeting the LDL receptor are a promising approach.
In this Q&A, we had the privilege of speaking to COUR Pharmaceuticals’ CEO John Puisis. He offers insights into how their innovative immune-modifying nanoparticle platform differs from traditional approaches for treating immune-mediated diseases.
Dr H. Rachel Lagiakos is a Senior Principal Scientist in the Therapeutics Group at Schrödinger which she joined in 2018. She completed her PhD in Synthetic Organic Chemistry at Monash University and began her medicinal chemistry career at Cancer Therapeutics (CTx) in Melbourne, Australia in 2012. At CTx, Rachel’s contributions…
Researchers discovered that HER2-positive breast cancer drugs must target both HER2 and EGFR receptors to eradicate disease.
In this episode, we explore our understanding of DNA and its implications for health outcomes. Additionally, we discuss the transition from DNA sequencing to actionable insights in medicine, contrasting genetics-driven drug discovery with traditional methods. Finally, we examine the evolving landscape of genetic technology and its potential impact on the…
Topological defects in mesenchymal stromal cell self-assembly could suggest their potential for cartilage regeneration.
Researchers found that relaxing glial spacing by targeting Plexin-B1 has great therapeutic potential for Alzheimer’s disease.
In this Q&A, Celularity’s CEO and founder Dr Robert Hariri details the preclinical research that indicates that placenta-derived unmodified NK cells and genetically modified NK cells can target and selectively eliminate cells expressing stress ligands.
In this Q&A, senior leaders at Caris Life Sciences discuss how the company is advancing precision medicine by integrating ADCs into patient-specific cancer treatment plans, focusing on novel target discovery through comprehensive molecular profiling and clinico-genomic data.
This is the first study to demonstrate that a specific set of HERVs expressed in the human brain contribute to disorders like schizophrenia.
Following Zymeworks’ presentation at AACR 2024, in this Q&A, Dr Nina Weisser explains how the next generation trispecific T cell engager platform with integrated CD28 costimulation is engineered to tackle solid tumours.
The world’s first generation of human BBB organoids from hPSCs accurately replicated features of cerebral cavernous malformation.
Following direct exposure of human CNS tissues to CWD prions, a significant resistance to the propagation of infection was found.
