Scientists Develop Next-Gen Antibodies That Boost the Body’s Cancer Killing Cells

Scientists at Southampton University have created new antibodies that supercharge the immune system’s ability to identify and kill cancer cells. This approach involved clustering immune receptors in the body so that stronger signals can be sent out to the specialized cells responsible for zeroing in and killing cancer cells. Published in the Nature Communications journal, the study documents how this new approach introduces four-pronged antibody cells instead of the two-pronged ones that naturally exist in our bodies. By converting these antibodies into four-pronged ones, the new cells are better able to bind to more receptors in the body so that a more powerful signal is sent to T cells to…

Soligenix Inc. (NASDAQ: SNGX) Announces Positive Phase 2 Data for Rare Inflammatory Disease

Behçet’s disease is characterized by unpredictable flare-ups and periods of remission, making long-term management particularly challenging. Current treatment strategies for the disease focus on controlling inflammation and suppressing immune activity using corticosteroids, immunosuppressants and biologic agents. Soligenix has released positive top-line results from its phase 2 clinical trial evaluating SGX945 for the treatment of aphthous ulcers associated with Behçet’s. Behçet’s disease is a rare, chronic inflammatory condition that can cause recurrent, painful ulcers, eye inflammation and systemic complications that significantly affect quality of life. Because available treatments are limited and often inconsistent, clinical trial updates in this disease area carry…

Experts are Astounded by the Vaccine Policy Change in the US

The recent vaccine policy changes that the U.S. government announced have astounded experts because the changes reduce recommended vaccines by one third and put the U.S. behinds its peer countries. This change shifts the U.S. from the position of leader on vaccination to a country that lags other developed nations on matters of disease prevention. This policy change marks the latest escalation of the HHS secretary, John F. Kennedy Jr., who has for long been a skeptic of vaccines and is now in a position where he can make policy decisions that affect the entire country. Daniel Jernigan, the National Center for Emerging Zoonotic Infectious Diseases’ former director,…

Michigan State University Research Says Suppressing Postoperative Pain Could Delay Healing

The normal practice after someone has undergone a surgical procedure has been to administer anti-inflammatory medications. However, new research conducted at Michigan State University (MSU) suggests that this could be counterproductive and may be the reason why some patients develop chronic pain that lasts for years after their surgery. The study found that allowing inflammation to happen naturally expedited the recovery process after injury or surgery and that pain ceased a lot faster if inflammation wasn’t blocked. Associate Professor Geoffroy Laumet, the senior author of the study, explains that the research team was surprised when they found that blocking inflammation…

Soligenix Inc. (NASDAQ: SNGX) Advances Solutions for Hard-to-Diagnose CTCL

CTCL is recognized by clinicians as one of the most difficult cancers to diagnose accurately in its early stages. Delayed diagnosis has meaningful clinical consequences. Within this challenging diagnostic and treatment landscape, Soligenix is advancing a novel therapeutic approach for CTCL through its development of HyBryte(TM). Cutaneous T-cell lymphoma, or CTCL, is a rare form of non-Hodgkin lymphoma that primarily affects the skin, often presenting with symptoms that closely resemble common dermatologic conditions such as eczema or psoriasis, leading to frequent misdiagnosis and delayed treatment. These diagnostic delays can allow the disease to progress silently for years, increasing patient suffering…

Penn State to Participate in Researching Potential Treatment for Pediatric Brain Cancer

A new collaboration between Penn State College of Medicine and Targepeutics seeks to advance research into a promising combination therapy that offers hope to families with children diagnosed with DIPG (diffuse intrinsic pontine glioma). This glioma is devastating and currently has limited therapy options. Patients diagnosed with this cancer survive for less than a year on average. A new combo therapy involving an immunotoxin dubbed GB13 and radiotherapy has shown promise in preclinical trials where approaches like chemotherapy or targeted therapy have had dismal results. The collaboration seeks to advance this treatment to clinical studies and eventual approval by the FDA. The planned clinical trial seeks to recruit pediatric participants, a reflection of how…

New ‘Nanozigzag’ Biomaterial Shows Potential in Revolutionizing Cancer Immunotherapy

Immunotherapy has emerged as a more gentle way to treat cancer over the past few years. However, it is very expensive and results are usually inconsistent among patients, especially those suffering from solid tumors. Researchers in Hong Kong have come up with a biomaterial containing silica that can help to address the current shortcomings of immunotherapy and dramatically improve efficacy rates. Prof. Yung Kin-lam, who led the team of researchers, explains that the nanomaterial they developed is biocompatible, non-toxic, natural and comes in the shape of a nanomatrix. This biomaterial accelerates the maturation of dendritic cells (DCs) outside the body of the patient and these are infused into the patient to wake up the body’s ability…
