Soligenix Inc. (NASDAQ: SNGX) Secures Key European Milestone for Dusquetide Development

“The EMA's positive opinion signifies an important step for Soligenix as we continue to advance the program,” says company CEO. The designation provides incentives that may include protocol assistance, reduced regulatory fees and up to 10 years of market exclusivity following approval. Dusquetide is classified as an innate defense regulator, a type of compound designed to modulate the body’s innate immune system rather than suppress it outright. For patients living with rare inflammatory diseases, regulatory milestones can mark the difference between stalled research and meaningful therapeutic progress. A positive opinion from the European Medicines Agency (EMA) not only validates a…

OSU Researchers Develop Nanomaterial That Eliminates Cancer Cells

Oregon State University researchers have engineered a new nanomaterial from iron that kills cancer cells inside tumors and leaves normal cells unaffected. This new nanomaterial works by triggering two chemical reactions inside tumors and the cancer cells die off as a result of these reactions. In a study that appeared in the journal Advanced Functional Materials, the scientists explain that the novel nanomaterial initiates two different chemical reactions that cause oxidative stress to kill cancer cells from the inside. Their work advances the field of chemodynamic therapy, also known as CDT. This field seeks to leverage the unique microenvironment inside tumors by altering the conditions that cancer cells thrive in in order to kill them off by denying the…

LIXTE Biotechnology Holdings Inc. (NASDAQ: LIXT) Advances Lead Compound in Tumor Immunogenicity Research

The promise of immunotherapy lies in its ability to harness the body’s own immune defenses to recognize and destroy malignant cells LB-100, the lead compound developed by LIXTE Biotechnology, is part of this emerging wave of tumor-sensitizing agents The company is advancing LB-100 through clinical development in collaboration with academic and research institutions Immunotherapy has transformed cancer treatment over the past decade, yet one of oncology’s most persistent challenges remains: Many tumors simply do not respond. Even breakthrough approaches such as PD-1 and PD-L1 inhibitors and CAR-T cell therapies can fail in tumors that remain immunologically “cold” or invisible to…

Researchers Say ICE Operations are Harming Public Health

The media has been awash with stories of intense sweeps by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) conducted in different cities, such as Minneapolis. While a lot of focus has been on the sometimes high-handed methods used during these operations, a team of researchers is drawing attention to the adverse public health effects of these ICE sweeps. University of Iowa’s Asst. Prof. Nicole Novak and Associate Professor William Lopez of the University of Michigan write that these operations have far-reaching effects on public health that take a while to fully come to light, and that it will take years to roll back those adverse effects. One of the effects they point out is that…

Soligenix Inc. (NASDAQ: SNGX) Leverages Platform Science for Broader Therapeutic Reach

Platform-based drug development has gained traction across the biotechnology industry because of its efficiency and risk management advantages. Soligenix’s development of synthetic hypericin illustrates this “one drug, multiple diseases” model in action. HyBryte is being developed to treat both cutaneous T-cell lymphoma (“CTCL”), a rare form of non-Hodgkin lymphoma that primarily affects the skin, and psoriasis. Modern biopharmaceutical innovation often revolves around a powerful idea: One scientific mechanism can unlock treatments for multiple diseases. Rather than building entirely new molecules for every indication, companies are developing platform technologies that allow a single therapeutic approach to be adapted across conditions. Soligenix…

New Treatment Dramatically Improves Survival for Patients with Deadly Brain Tumors

Researchers at Keck Medicine, University of Southern California (USC) have discovered that combining immunotherapy with laser heat therapy could significantly extend the survival of individuals diagnosed with deadly brain cancers. Astrocytoma, which includes cancers like glioblastoma, grows aggressively and usually recurs after patients have undergone surgery to remove the tumors. This makes the cancer difficult to treat, and patients rarely survive for more than 5 months once diagnosed with high-grade astrocytoma. Immunotherapies, treatments that leverage the body’s immune system to fight cancer, work remarkably well in addressing cancers found in other body parts. However, these treatments exhibit dismal results when used against brain cancers. This is because the blood-brain…
