The follicular lymphoma niche is changing and becoming more complex
This month's Biotech Strategy Blog mail bag.
As we learn more about mechanisms of resistance in ALK+ and T790M mutated lung cancer, combination strategies are likely to evolve - but which ones?
Targeting MYC and bromodomains is an emerging area of research as we learn more about super enhancer transcription factor clusters around oncogenes that drive cancer.
What happens when we combine a checkpoint with an immune stimulant in advanced melanoma?
Beyond monotherapy with checkpoint inhibition, what combinations or sequences might be useful to explore next?
New developments in T790M and ALK lung cancer plus a look at antibodies targeting ADAM17 in head & neck cancer.
Beyond lung cancer and melanoma, what other tumour types represent the low hanging fruit for checkpoint monotherapy?
As the anti-PD-1 blockers show superiority in front-line metastatic melanoma, is this the end for Yervoy?
The annual meeting of the American Association for Cancer Research ended today. Find out what were our top 10 highlights.
Checkpoint Inhibitor data is a hot topic at AACR 2015. Data showed they may work in TNBC and also two checkpoints are better than one.
Cancer Immunotherapy is one of the hot topics at the 2015 AACR annual meeting in Philadelphia.
University College London (UCL) is leading the way in European clinical trials of CAR T Cell therapies that target CD19.
Emerging data on different combinations with checkpoint inhibitors suggests that this may increase response rates and outcomes for cancer patients. Find out more...
Novartis have announced a deal with Aduro Biotech for access to their STING-targeted CDN platform technology.
The mutational landscape determines sensitivity to PD-1 blockade in non–small cell lung cancer
What is the potential of a new cell therapy with cytotoxic T lymphocytes against Epstein Barr Virus (EBV-CTL)?
Predictive biomarkers of response will be key to reimbursement of immunotherapies in Europe. One is potentially emerging for ipilimumab (Yervoy), which may be useful in speeding up access.
What are the emerging new trends in cancer immunotherapy? Beyond monotherapy lies many combination opportunities yet to be explored. At AACR in April, we will see a raft of novel approaches being discussed.
