Søren Bregenholt, Chief Executive Officer at Alligator Bioscience, elucidates how creating bispecific antibodies that target both tumour-specific antigens and CD40, a receptor on the immune system’s dendritic cells, is a new approach that aims to trick tumours into telling the immune system how best to attack.
The emergence of new antibody-based therapeutics, such as antibody-drug conjugates, alongside a continued drive towards alternatives to animal testing approaches, highlights the need for precise and sensitive tools enabling the identification and characterisation of the best drug candidates for clinical progression. Capable of keeping up with the evolving drug development…
Small molecules are essential for developing effective medicines, but their structural complexity and material behaviour present difficulties. In this article, Chris Brown, Senior Chemist, Onyx Scientific Ltd, discusses how the right technologies and approaches can enhance drug development and mitigate risk from initial phase to commercial launch.

Radioimmunotherapy (RIT) is a promising cancer treatment gaining recognition in precision oncology. It utilises radiolabelled antibodies to deliver targeted radiation to tumours, with success in hematologic cancers. However, its use in solid tumours has been limited by off-target radiation and toxicity, with few clinical trials advancing beyond phase II. Alexander…
Sygnature Discovery has created a platform named SCANME, which can scale up human disease modelling to develop novel therapeutics.
By studying organoids derived from adult stem cells, researchers made a discovery that could improve the development of personalised therapeutics.
Biolojic Design is redefining antibody therapies by creating “programmable” antibodies that intelligently target well-validated autoimmune and oncology pathways. In this Q&A, CEO and founder Yanay Ofran, PhD, describes Biolojic’s groundbreaking approach, which leverages AI and machine learning to design antibodies capable of adjusting their behaviour based on their biological environment.…
Tune into this episode which explores how engineered tRNAs could treat thousands of rare diseases and cancers that share the same mutation.
In this in-depth Q&A, Mutlu Dogruel, Vice President of AI at Cresset shares his insights surrounding chatbots, retrieval augmented generation and AI hallucinations, to open up new possibilities for innovation in pharmaceutical research.
