“Aligos is not only supportive of the progress this approval represents but happy to see this class validated as we begin the phase 2a trial of our own highly potent and selective THR-β agonist, ALG-055009.”

With global warming, fungi have become more adapted to higher temperatures like the human body, and with the use of fungicides in farming, fungi are more resistant to treatments.

“Eighty percent of our crop pathogens are fungi,” said Dr. John Rex, chief medical officer for biotech company F2G. “If we’re going to produce crops, especially in these changing environmental conditions, we’re going to need fungicides.”

In a report on the research, the company said that a single oral dose of MM120 met its key secondary endpoint, maintaining “clinically and statistically

AMP immunotherapy enhanced the infiltration and function of TCR-T cells in the tumour microenvironment and led to epitope spreading against diverse tumour targets. Long-term protection against tumour recurrence in AMP-treated mice was associated with antigen spreading to additional tumour-associated antigens not targeted by the treatment.

James Graham, CEO of Recce Pharmaceuticals, shares his thoughts with BioBoss host John Simboli about leadership in biopharma and how Recce is working to develop a new class of synthetic anti-infectives designed to address the threat of antibiotic-resistant superbugs.

Grifols is readying an approval run at U.S. and European regulators on the back of a phase 3 win for the Spanish plasma medicine producer’s concentrated form of a blood clotting factor.

The trial included 25 people with pancreatic or colorectal cancer who had previously undergone surgery, seven of whom also had received radiation therapy. They were given up to 10 doses of the vaccine known as ELI-002, and the results were promising: 84 percent of all participants had positive T cell responses—and all of those who

Lumos Pharma is developing LUM-201 (ibutamoren) for the treatment of moderate pediatric growth hormone deficiency. PGHD is a rare disorder in which the body doesn’t make enough growth hormone.

Cerevance has shown that “we can tamp down the inflammation response, or the inflammasome, but keep all the other surveillance and other aspects of microglia still functioning as they should.” The company is now conducting a Phase I study of CVN293, with topline data expected in the second quarter of 2024.

Some venture firms are pumping money into publicly traded biotechnology companies, as falling share prices prompt these investors to expand their search for bargains to the public markets.

A vaccine for the postsurgical treatment of KRAS-mutated pancreatic and colorectal cancers, ELI-002, is showing promising early study results — but any potential broad commercial availability of the drug is likely several years away, as one researcher tells CURE®.

As Elicio Therapeutics awaits a phase 2 readout of its lymph node-targeting therapeutic cancer vaccine in humans, the biotech has published fresh preclinical data showing the same tech boosted the efficacy of T cell receptor-modified T-cell (TCR-T) therapy in mice.

Lumos Pharma is dedicated to transforming the treatment landscape for rare pediatric diseases like PGHD. Lumos Pharma’s approach is not just about creating new drugs; it’s about rethinking the entire patient experience, prioritizing ease of use and minimizing the treatment burden on young patients and their families. Their work exemplifies a broader shift in the

Innovation in the HIV treatment landscape is playing a role in addressing medication adherence. In recent years, long-acting injectable antiretroviral monthly and bi-monthly treatment options have been approved – a welcome alternative for people living with HIV. We are now on the cusp of it coming full circle from the days when patients took multiple
