AstraZeneca’s “CD19/CD3 dual antibody” receives clinical approval in China

According to the CDE official website, AstraZeneca’s Class 1 therapeutic biological product AZD0486 has obtained implicit approval for clinical trials and is intended to be used to treat relapsed or refractory B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia. AZD0486 (TNB-486) is a new, fully human CD19xCD3 IgG4 bispecific antibody, originally developed by TeneoTwo. In 2022, AstraZeneca acquired TeneoTwo for US$1.265 billion and also obtained its clinical-stage drug TNB-486. According to public information, AZD0486 can bind to CD19 on the surface of B lymphocytes and CD3 receptors on the surface of T lymphocytes, thereby initiating the immune response of T lymphocytes. A Phase I clinical study (NCT04594642) published in the journal “OncLive” in August 2023 showed that AZD0486 has a durable tumor inhibitory effect on relapsed/refractory follicular lymphoma, regardless of the expression level of CD20, and it is also independent of the type and dosage of existing drugs. Currently, AZD0486 has entered the Phase ...

World’s First Low-Cost, High-Throughput, Near-Patient Molecular Diagnostic Test System Dramatically Reduces Wait Times

It is important for doctors to rapidly and accurately identify prevalent respiratory pathogens like COVID-19, influenza A and B, RSV-A, and RSV-B for administering prompt, tailored treatment to infected individuals. In a significant advancement, a near-patient test system using automation technology detects pathogens with unrivaled speed and cuts the typical waiting time of 24 to 48 hours to just one to two hours without the need for expensive biosafe laboratories. Fast MDx Limited (Middlesex, UK) and Festo (London, UK) have jointly designed and developed the world’s first, low-cost, high-throughput, near-patient molecular diagnostic test system that will provide clinicians with earlier, more informed results, allowing each patient to receive a faster, personalized clinical pathway. The Fast MDx system comprises everything necessary for testing, including sample tubes, swabs, and even electronic result transmission to the originating hospital, clinic, or doctor’s office. The system incorporates Fast MDx’s latest, ultra-fast, NGx2 4-Channel qPCR thermal ...

Simple Measurement Predicts Risk of Rapid Progression of Chronic Kidney Disease

Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is increasingly becoming a major health issue worldwide. For those diagnosed with CKD, the rate of disease progression can vary, with some individuals experiencing a rapid deterioration in kidney function. Healthcare providers need to spot patients who are newly diagnosed with CKD and are at a heightened risk of rapid disease progression. Early identification can allow for timely interventions that could slow down, or in some cases, prevent the progression of the disease. Now, researchers have made a breakthrough by discovering a simple method to identify individuals at high risk for rapid CKD progression, an advancement that could greatly enhance prevention and treatment strategies. In a comprehensive study, a team of researchers from Aarhus University (Aarhus, Denmark) examined the precise risk of rapid CKD progression utilizing data from Danish health registers. This study provides valuable insights for medical professionals on identifying patients who are more likely ...

Inclusion of noncommunicable disease care in response to humanitarian emergencies will help save more lives

Noncommunicable diseases (NCDs), such as cardiovascular disease, cancer, chronic respiratory disease and diabetes, are responsible for 75% of deaths worldwide. People affected by humanitarian emergencies are at increased risk of NCDs. It is estimated that strokes and heart attacks are up to 3 times more likely following a disaster. However, care and treatment for NCDs are often not included as a standard part of humanitarian emergency preparedness and response, which focus on the most immediate needs. To support integration of essential services for NCDs into emergency preparedness and humanitarian response, the World Health Organization (WHO), the Kingdom of Denmark, the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan, the Republic of Kenya, and UNHCR, the UN Refugee Agency, are jointly convening a global high-level technical meeting on NCDs in humanitarian settings on 27-29 February in Copenhagen, Denmark.
