Exact Sciences Corporation has presented first-time clinical results for its Oncodetect molecular residual disease (MRD) test in early triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC), showcasing a strong correlation between circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) detection and recurrence risk following neoadjuvant therapy and surgery. The results, drawn from a 147-patient cohort in the NSABP B-59 substudy, were unveiled at […]
Kazia Therapeutics Limited has presented new clinical and translational data at the 2025 San Antonio Breast Cancer Symposium demonstrating that paxalisib, its investigational brain-penetrant PI3K/mTOR inhibitor, may suppress circulating tumor cell clusters and reverse immune exhaustion in two of the most treatment-resistant breast cancer subtypes—HER2-positive metastatic breast cancer and triple-negative breast cancer. The early evidence, […]
Anixa Biosciences Inc. has reported final Phase 1 results for its investigational breast cancer vaccine targeting the α-lactalbumin protein, showing that the primary endpoints were met and 74 percent of participants demonstrated protocol-defined immune responses. The data were presented at the 2025 San Antonio Breast Cancer Symposium and build the case for a Phase 2 […]
Marengo Therapeutics has presented early-stage results from its STARt-002 clinical trial evaluating invikafusp alfa (Invika), a novel T cell immunotherapy candidate, in combination with sacituzumab govitecan (TRODELVY), an antibody-drug conjugate developed by Gilead Sciences. The data, shared during a late-breaking presentation at the 2025 San Antonio Breast Cancer Symposium, highlight the safety, pharmacodynamic activity, and […]
Few ideas have captivated both the scientific imagination and biotech investment flows quite like the cancer vaccine. For decades, the industry narrative was full of hope—and disappointment. The graveyard of failed trials stretches from Dendreon’s Provenge to once-hyped peptide and dendritic cell platforms. For every announcement of an “immune breakthrough,” there seemed to be a […]
Actinium Pharmaceuticals, Inc. has presented new preclinical data for its alpha-particle radiotherapy candidate ATNM-400 at the 2025 San Antonio Breast Cancer Symposium (SABCS), highlighting potent anti-tumor activity across hormone receptor–positive, triple-negative, and therapy-resistant breast cancer models. The findings suggest that ATNM-400 could become a differentiated treatment option for patients with tumors that have progressed after […]
