Genervon reports new findings that drug candidate GM6 attenuates Alzheimer's disease in mice model

Following the closure of several research programs for Alzheimer's disease, in early 2018 the FDA issued a release entitled "Draft Guidance for Industry: Early Alzheimer's Disease: Developing Drugs for Treatment." Encouraged by the proposed changes in the new guidance, Genervon's research team reported new findings that its drug candidate GM6 attenuates Alzheimer's disease in an early AD transgenic APP mice model.

Researchers develop molecule that makes cancer cells sensitive to radiotherapy

Researchers from Karolinska Institutet and Kancera AB have developed a molecule that makes cancer cells sensitive to radiotherapy. In a study published in Nature Communications, the researchers describe a new way to block cancer cells' ability to repair their DNA and thus stop the survival of cancer cells.
