Data from a study recently published by the Royal Marsden Cancer Centre showed promising data for the combination of Avutometinib + Defactinib in the treatment of ovarian cancer, resulting in significant tumour shrinkage in 28% of patients and disease control in 93% of patients.

A three-drug combination regimen significantly prolongs survival in patients with HPV-positive cancers, new data from a clinical trial shows. For patients who had not been treated with immune checkpoint inhibitors, it resulted in significant tumour shrinkage in 88% of patients, and even in patients who failed immune checkpoint inhibitor treatment, 63% had significant tumour shrinkage.

Elahere, the first antibody-coupled drug (ADC) for refractory ovarian cancer, has received accelerated approval from the FDA, resulting in substantial tumour shrinkage in 31.7% of patients and complete tumour disappearance in 4.8%.

The impact of AlphaFold on protein structure prediction has been transformative.

The collaboration aims to improve the efficiency of the drug discovery pipeline by leveraging industry-leading capabilities to identify genetic variants that cause human disease.

The US FDA has approved Elacestrant, the first oral selective estrogen receptor degrader (SERD), for the treatment of patients with advanced or metastatic breast cancer who are estrogen receptor positive, HER2 negative and have an ESR1 mutation. Results of the trial showed that patients treated with Elacestrant had a 45% reduction in the risk of disease progression or death.

The global ADC drug market will be approximately $5.2 billion by 2021

The US FDA has approved pablizumab (Keytruda) as an adjuvant treatment for early-stage non-small cell lung cancer. In the trial, pablizumab (Keytruda) significantly prolonged cancer-free survival in patients compared to placebo.

Many elderly people have high blood pressure themselves, but refuse to stick to their antihypertensive medication, thinking that taking it for a long time will have many side effects.

A new clinical trial update shows that oxitinib (known as Teresa, or 9291) nearly doubled disease-free survival and halved post-operative recurrence rates in lung cancer patients carrying an early stage EGFR mutation!
