AstraZeneca’s “Class 1 Anti-heart Failure Chemical Drug” has applied for clinical trials in China

On September 14, according to the official website of CDE, AstraZeneca’s clinical trial application for the Class 1.1 chemical drug AZD5462 tablets was accepted. According to public information, the drug is a relaxin RXFP1 receptor agonist. Relaxin, as an agonist of the relaxin 1 receptor (RXFP1), produces unique and diverse biological effects, including pulmonary and systemic vasodilation, tissue remodeling/fibrosis reversal, and reduced inflammation, and therefore also has potential in cardiopulmonary diseases. significant curative effect. In addition, this substance is also known as the “pregnancy hormone” and is regulated during pregnancy to help the expectant mother’s cardiovascular system meet the increased demands of the developing fetus and remodel tissue and musculoskeletal structure. . AZD5462 is a relaxin RXFP1 receptor agonist developed by AstraZeneca. Preclinical studies on monkey models of heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) showed that cardiac systolic function was improved after 8 weeks of treatment. There was no ...

Breaking the domestic gap! New Pulse Medical opens a new era in the TAVR market

Domestic companies have created a new situation in the TAVR market and created a new market engine. On August 14, 2024, the State Food and Drug Administration officially approved the domestic Prizvalve transcatheter aortic valve system developed by New Pulse Medical. As the first self-developed balloon-expandable valve launched in China, the Prizvalve valve system is expected to be the first to break the import monopoly, effectively improve the quality of life, and quickly capture market share. Aortic valve disease mainly includes aortic valve stenosis and aortic valve regurgitation. With the deepening of aging, the prevalence of cardiovascular diseases (including aortic valve stenosis) continues to rise, and the number of patients with aortic valve disease in the world and China has increased year by year. This change has not only had a serious impact on the quality of life of patients, but also posed severe challenges to the medical system. Traditional ...

the dawn of treatment for multiple myeloma!

Original Medical Overview Medical Overview September 19, 2024 08:54 Shanghai Multiple myeloma (MM) is a blood cancer that, despite advances in treatment methods in recent years, remains an incurable disease. The traditional treatment options for MM include the combination of proteasome inhibitors (PIs), immunomodulators (IMiDs), and monoclonal antibodies (Mo Abs). Although these methods improve patient survival and progression free survival (PFS), with the emergence of treatment resistant clones, patients will eventually develop resistance to these treatments. Therefore, researchers are exploring new treatment strategies such as CAR-T cell therapy and bispecific antibodies, which activate immune T cells to kill tumor cells. Based on the review of bispecific antibodies and multiple myeloma published in the Blood Cancer Journal this month, let’s talk about the design, mechanism of action, current clinical trials, and future development directions of bispecific antibodies. 01 Bispecific antibodies and therapeutic targets Bispecific antibodies (BsAbs) are antibody constructs with two ...

Nat Microbiol | Liu Wei/Li Hao reveal new mechanism of bile acid protection against SFTSV (fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome) infection

BioArt September 19, 2024 08:45 Shanghai Bile acids are metabolites produced by the synergistic effect between the host and its gut microbiota. They can regulate various biological functions and affect the host’s susceptibility to viral infections, especially enteroviruses and hepatitis viruses, by activating specific receptors and cellular signaling pathways in intestinal and liver tissues. A small fraction (<10%) of total bile acids can enter the systemic circulation and may play a critical role in antiviral immunity during systemic infections. However, the function and mechanism of bile acids in regulating the host’s immune response to viral systemic infections are still poorly understood, and the association between bile acid metabolism and disease outcomes of viral systemic infections is also unclear. Viral hemorrhagic fever is usually caused by highly pathogenic RNA viruses, which can lead to severe systemic infections, multiple organ failure, and even death. Severe fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome (SFTS) is a ...

There is no Summit in China

Innovative drugs are a gamble, a big gamble. Once the research and development fails, the stock price collapses and financing is unavailable. On the contrary, if the gamble is won, it is not impossible for the stock price to soar. Especially in the US stock market, it has always been so violent. For the losers, there are only two options: disband on the spot or fight back. The so-called fight back means finding a way to start the next round of innovation gambling. This requires both money and the courage to gamble. Summit is an old “gambler” who plans to gamble again. After its establishment in 2003, Summit focused on the anti-infection field, and its core product was benchmarked against vancomycin, the “last line of defense for antibiotics.” It landed on Nasdaq in 2015, but because the core product ridinilazole did not perform well in the final clinical data, the ...

ESMO 2024｜Major changes in liver cancer treatment

To this day, liver cancer is still the top killer on my country’s cancer “killer list”. According to the latest data on cancer in China in 2022 released by the National Cancer Center (NCC) in February 2024, liver cancer ranked second with 316,500 deaths. The core reason is that despite the continuous progress in first-line treatment, the existence of drug resistance has made the current second-line treatment of liver cancer face great challenges. First of all, for patients whose disease progresses after TKIs treatment, the clinical needs are far from being met. Whether it is changing TKIs or using immunotherapy, the degree of clinical benefit needs to be improved. Specifically, the key trials of multikinase inhibitors regorafenib and cabozantinib in patients whose disease progressed after sorafenib treatment showed that the objective response rate (ORR) was only 11% and 4%, respectively, and the proportion of patients who achieved remission was extremely ...

Cheng Yifan’s team reveals the activation and transmission mechanism of TGF – β signaling between cells

The following article is from the biological world, authored by the author Transforming growth factor beta (TGF – β) is a multifunctional cytokine that plays a critical role in processes such as development, immunity, cancer, and fibrosis. TGF – β has three different gene expression products (TGF – β 1, TGF – β 2, and TGF – β 3), all of which are expressed in an inactive (latent) form, namely L-TGF – β, and “activation” is crucial for its function. Most therapeutic strategies targeting TGF – β do not target specific latent and/or activation mechanisms, but rather inhibit the overall TGF – β signaling pathway and exhibit significant toxicity. A deeper understanding of latency and activation may contribute to the development of better TGF – β targeted therapeutic strategies. Traditionally, it is believed that mature TGF – β must physically dissociate from L-TGF – β 1 before signal transduction can ...
