VERAXA Biotech AG (NASDAQ: VRXA) Builds Antibody-Based Cancer Pipeline Around Dual-Targeting Precision

VERAXA Biotech is changing how antibody-based therapies recognize and attack cancer cells, developing antibody-based cancer therapies with an emphasis on bispecific antibody-drug conjugates (“ADCs”) and T-cell engagers (“TCEs”). Its proprietary BiTAC platform uses a dual-targeting, “AND-gated” architecture designed to activate therapeutic effects preferentially at tumor sites. The company has advanced its lead BiTAC-TCE toward IND/CTA-enabling activities following cell-line development work and regulatory feedback from Germany’s Paul-Ehrlich-Institute. VERAXA’s VXA-222 bispecific ADC has moved beyond the initial discovery phase following completion of the antibody-discovery step with OmniAb. The company reported more than 50 granted owned or exclusively licensed patents across 26 patent…

Former Adviser to Fauci Pleads Guilty to Covid-Related Conspiracy Charge

Dr. David Morens, formerly an adviser to Anthony Fauci during the Covid-19 pandemic, has pleaded guilty to a charge of conspiracy to conceal information about the pandemic. The charge focuses on attempts to conceal documents of the government by evading laws that allow members of the public to access records in the possession of the government. The particulars of the charge brought against Morens in a Maryland federal court indicate that he undertook to conceal information about a research grant to a Chinese entity that had been identified as a possible origin of the pandemic. Morens, aged 78, was indicted in April this year after prosecutors…

Quantum BioPharma Ltd. (NASDAQ: QNTM) Advances Myelin-Protecting MS Therapy as Treatment Paradigm Evolves

MS drug development is increasingly expanding beyond controlling inflammation toward approaches designed to protect the nervous system and address mechanisms underlying progressive disability. Remyelination and protection of existing myelin remain major unmet needs in MS, as no approved therapy has established the ability to restore previously damaged myelin. Quantum BioPharma’s Lucid-MS is a patented new chemical entity designed to inhibit demyelination and protect myelin without suppressing the immune system. The U.S. FDA has cleared Quantum BioPharma to proceed with its planned phase 2 clinical trial of Lucid-MS in people with multiple sclerosis. Multiple sclerosis (“MS”) treatment has traditionally focused on…

Researchers Identify a Protein That Could Be Targeted in Glioblastoma Therapy

Glioblastoma is very difficult to treat because it quickly adapts and evolves to become resistant to existing treatments indicated for brain cancers. Now, scientists have found a protein on this cancer’s cells that could be targeted in order to make the cancer more vulnerable to the treatments administered to combat this deadly malignancy. The discovery was made by researchers based at the Comprehensive Cancer Center at Ohio State University. The findings of this preclinical study appeared in the journal Cancer Letters. The team wanted to find a way to make existing treatments like chemotherapy and radiotherapy more effective against this…

Little-Known Immune Cells Bolster Anticancer Fight, Study Finds

Researchers from the University of Manchester in the UK have found that a small group of immune cells that aren’t given much attention by scientists is actually crucial in mobilizing the immune system to attack and sustain its fight against cancer. The study, whose findings appeared in the journal Immunity, explored what impact the activation or deactivation of these particular immune cells would have on the body’s response to cancer. For their study, the team designed mouse models in which it was possible to label or actually remove activated dendritic cells. Until this particular study was undertaken, it was hard for the research community to study the role of these cells during the…

Regentis Biomaterials Ltd. (NYSE American: RGNT) Moves GelrinC Along Parallel US Clinical and European Commercial Tracks

Regentis has passed 50% enrollment in the pivotal Phase III SAGE study of GelrinC, with recruitment completion targeted for the third quarter of 2026 and a PMA process expected to begin by the end of 2027. FDA approved a single-arm protocol using a historical microfracture control data package the company owns, and Regentis reports that the first 40 patients closely match that control group. In Europe, where GelrinC already holds CE Mark approval, surgeon training began in the third quarter of 2026 at Humanitas Research Hospital in Milan, supported by an expanded clinical site network and a newly approved manufacturing…

Global Drugmakers Earmark Billions to Ramp Up Their US Footprint

Dozens of global drugmakers are ramping up their investments in the United States in a bid to sidestep the planned tariffs on drug imports. In total, ongoing investments and planned expansions amount to approximately $500 billion. These planned investments are intended to not only reassure investors but also mitigate risks linked to global supply chains, such as the evolving tariff environment. Last September, Pfizer engaged in discussions with Trump, and the drugmaker undertook to invest about $70 billion in domestic R&D as well as manufacturing. In exchange, Trump granted the company an exemption of three years from any tariffs that are imposed on drug imports into…

Regentis Biomaterials Ltd. (NYSE American: RGNT) Builds a Manufacturing and Intellectual Property Powerhouse for the Global Cartilage Repair Market

A new Japanese patent allowance follows a recent such US patent grant, strengthens protection around the organic solvent-free manufacturing process and ready-to-use liquid formulation behind GelrinC, extending the company’s intellectual property footprint into one of the world’s largest cartilage-repair markets. The process delivers a 5-fold increase in yield along with simplified production and commercial scalability, the manufacturing economics needed to make an off-the-shelf cartilage product commercially viable at scale. The milestone lands as Regentis advances European commercialization and passes the halfway mark in enrollment for its pivotal U.S. trial. Aging populations are pushing joint disease higher on the orthopedic agenda,…
