Vantictumab (OMP-18R5), a fully human IgG2 monoclonal antibody, antagonizes Wnt pathway signaling through binding to FZD1/2/5/7/8 receptors. It is currently under investigation for the treatment of various cancers, including metastatic HER2-negative breast cancer and metastatic pancreatic adenocarcinoma [1] [2].
MitoCur-1, a curcumin analogue, inhibits the mitochondrial antioxidative enzyme thioredoxin reductase 2 (TrxR2) and possesses electrophilic characteristics with mitochondrial-targeting capabilities. This compound specifically induces reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation, demonstrating antitumor efficacy [1].
Atacicept (TACI-Ig), a recombinant fusion protein, comprises the extracellular, ligand-binding segment of the TACI receptor fused with the Fc portion of human IgG. It functions by inhibiting B cell activation through binding to both B lymphocyte stimulator and a proliferation-inducing ligand, and is utilized in researching B-cell autoimmune diseases [1] [2].
