Cullinan Oncology Inc. and Taiho Pharmaceutical Co. Ltd. completed their agreement to collaborate on the U.S. development of CLN-081/TAS6417, a next generation, irreversible EGFR inhibitor for the treatment of a genetically defined subset of patients with non-small cell lung cancer (The Cancer Letter, May 13, 2022).
An investigational therapy significantly shrank lung cancer tumors that are notoriously resistant to treatment by encouraging an attack from natural killer cells in an animal model, a study led by UT Southwestern Medical Center researchers shows. The findings, published in the Journal for ImmunoTherapy of Cancer, could lead to new types of immunotherapy that rely on this novel strategy.
