Novel Antibodies Targeting IL-2
TS-066051 — Novel antibodies targeting IL-2 with the ability to inhibit IL-2 signaling through IL-2 Rαβg to a greater extent than through IL-2 Rβg.
IL-2 and its receptor IL-2R are known to play multiple roles in shaping the immune response, including both immune activation and tolerance. Expression of intermediate-affinity IL-2 receptors by different immune cell subsets determines cellular sensitivity to IL-2. However, the dynamic interplay bet…

Addressing the Treatment Gap in Advanced Liposarcoma
TS-062480 — Novel therapeutic compounds to treat advanced liposarcoma.
Patients diagnosed with advanced liposarcoma (LPS) face a significant treatment challenge, as current chemotherapy approaches exhibit low response rates of only 25%, leading to a dismal overall survival at 5 years, ranging between 20% to 34%.
The Need
Despite extensive efforts, there has been no s…

Unleashing the Power of Radiotherapy - Enhancing Tumor Oxygenation with Next-Gen Radiosensitizers
TS-062384 — , T2018-092, T2018-354, & T2020-216 This technology provides novel radiosensitizer compounds that are derivatives of papaverine designed to enhance tumor oxygenization without PDE-related side effects.
Papaverine is an FDA-approved phosphodiesterase 10A (PDE10A) inhibitor and its clinical use is due to these effects on blood pressure and vascular tone. However, it was found to also be a potent inhibitor of mitochondrial complex I. Papaverine’s mitochondrial complex I inhibition has been sho…
