Pivekimab sunirine (IMGN 632) is a CD123-targeting ADC for Hematological Malignancies
CD123, the alpha chain of the interleukin 3 receptor (IL-3Rα), is a molecule found on cells that helps transmit the signal for interleukin 3, a soluble cytokine important to the immune system. Besides, Interleukin 3 (IL-3) is a soluble and pleiotropic cytokine. Additionally, IL-3 regulates the function and production...
MPT0B014, a Tubulin Polymerization Inhibitor Induces Cancer Cell Apoptosis
Microtubules are polymers of microtubule proteins that form part of the cytoskeleton and provide structure and shape for eukaryotic cells. Specifically, Microtubules play an important role in many cellular processes. They participate in maintaining cellular structure and form the cytoskeleton together with microfilaments and intermediate filaments. Besides, Microtubes are...
MC0704 is a STAT3 Inhibitor for Triple-negative Breast Cancer Research
Breast cancer (BC) is one of the main causes of cancer-associated death in women. And, BC is high recurrence and/or metastatic potential. BC is typically categorized into respective subtypes based on the presence of representative receptors (the human epidermal growth factor receptor, estrogen receptor, and progesterone receptor). Hence, these...
Palbociclib is an Orally Active CDK4 and CDK6 Inhibitor for Cancer Research
Cyclin-dependent kinases (CDKs) are serine/threonine kinases whose activity depends on a regulatory subunit-a cyclin. CDKs are relatively small proteins, with molecular weights ranging from 34 to 40 kDa. What’s more, CDKs play important roles in the control of cell division and modulate transcription in response to several extra- and...
Izalontamab (SI-B001) is a Bispecific Anti-EGFR/HER3 mAb for Cancer Research
EGFR (epidermal growth factor receptor) is a member of the ErbB receptor family1. Besides, EGFR is a common therapeutic strategy in epithelioma such as lung adenocarcinoma, colon cancer, head and neck cancer, and esophageal cancer, where the over-expression of EGFR caused by gene mutation plays an essential role in...
Dazostinag is a STING Agonist and Can be used for Antibody-Drug Conjugates (ADCs) Synthesis
STING, stimulator of interferon gene, is an important protein in innate immunity. It can induce the production of type I interferon. STING performs an antiviral activity and innate immune response to inhibit intracellular pathogens. ADCs, antibody-drug conjugates, are popular targeted therapies tools for cancer. An ADC consists of a...
Sotorasib (AMG-510) is an Orally Bioavailable KRAS G12C Covalent Inhibitor
The KRAS oncoprotein is a GTPase and an essential mediator of intracellular signaling pathways. KRAS oncoprotein regulates tumor cell growth and survival. However, KRAS also is the most frequently mutated oncogene in cancer and encodes a key signaling protein in tumors. In addition, KRASG12C mutant is present in approximately...
