600+ patient-derived cancer models expand the search for drug targets
Hundreds of new patient-derived cancer models could strengthen target validation, identify cancer vulnerabilities and provide more representative systems for preclinical drug discovery.
ArticleWhy researchers are revisiting bisantrene decades after it was abandoned
An oncology drug abandoned decades ago is getting a second look, with new research uncovering a mechanism that could offer an alternative route to targeting MYC, one of cancer’s toughest targets.
ArticleTargeting childhood myopia progression with 7-methylxanthine
Childhood myopia researcher Dr Klaus Trier explores how 7-methylxanthine targets scleral remodelling and axial elongation, and its potential to slow disease progression and reduce the risk of high myopia.
ArticleWhy intracellular targets remain a major drug discovery challenge – and how they’re becoming druggable
Many biologically important intracellular targets remain difficult to drug. Dr Rab Prinjha examines how screening within living cells could help tackle them.

NewsIL-17 identified as potential immunotherapy biomarker in ovarian cancer
A new study has identified IL-17 as a potential biomarker for immunotherapy response in a small subset of clear cell ovarian cancer cases, offering a possible route to personalised treatment for a disease historically resistant to immune-based therapies.
NewsExhausted T cells escape tumours to drive lasting cancer immunity
A preclinical study has identified a subset of exhausted, LAG3-expressing T cells capable of migrating out of tumours to establish long-term immune memory, with potential implications for LAG3-targeting cancer immunotherapies.
NewsNUS researchers identify molecular switch driving TNBC treatment resistance
Researchers at the National University of Singapore have identified DP103 as a potential molecular master switch sustaining tumour growth, cancer stem cells and treatment resistance in triple-negative breast cancer, with findings suggesting it could serve as a predictive biomarker for the investigational oral therapy RX-5902.
NewsFirst multi-responsive foldamer-based gel offers new approach to controlled drug delivery
Researchers at the University of Birmingham have engineered a switchable gel built from synthetic foldamer molecules that responds to light, heat and acid — a platform with potential implications for controlled drug delivery and targeted therapeutic release.

Antibody recycling, FcRn and the next generation of biologics
One receptor can protect antibodies from degradation, extend their half-life and become a drug target itself. Explore the science behind FcRn and how researchers measure its function.
Webinar
Oligonucleotide therapeutics safety considerations across drug development
As oligonucleotide therapeutics continue to advance, their safety assessment presents challenges that differ from traditional drug modalities. Discover how nonclinical safety studies, evolving regulatory expectations and real-world case examples can help you navigate these challenges with greater confidence.
Opinion and interviews
The global push to reduce animal testing in drug development
Non-animal methods are already used throughout early drug discovery, yet animal testing continues to dominate regulatory safety assessment. Recent initiatives suggest change is coming, but significant scientific and practical challenges remain.
