- The National Cancer Institute (NCI) awarded a $602,881 Project Grant under CFDA 93.395, the Cancer Treatment Research program, to Duke University. The grant supports research to develop novel immunotherapies using engineered IgG antibodies that can penetrate tumor cells and neutralize oncogenic mutations, such as KRAS. The research aims to translate these tumor cell-penetrating antibodies into the clinic, overcoming challenges associated with the low yield and half-life of previous recombinant...
- The National Cancer Institute (CFDA 93.395 - Cancer Treatment Research) awarded a $276,544 Project Grant to Ioncologi Inc. on September 1, 2025. The grant supports the development of IOI7, an autologous, ex vivo-expanded, immunomodulatory hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) therapy, for the treatment of immune checkpoint inhibitor-resistant glioblastoma. The key objectives are to: (1) optimize HSC expansion using a closed, scalable, and commercially viable production platform; (2) validate HSC...
- This $781,436 federal Project Grant award from the National Cancer Institute under the Cancer Treatment Research program (CFDA 93.395) supports research by Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory to optimize anti-NMDAR (N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor) antibodies for the treatment of triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC). The key objectives are to: 1) establish an orthotopic mouse model of NMDAR-positive TNBC, 2) screen for anti-NMDAR antibodies that can effectively target NMDAR-positive TNBC cells while...
- This Project Grant award from the National Cancer Institute (CFDA 93.395 - Cancer Treatment Research) provides $3,182,665 to The Washington University to investigate how natural killer (NK) cells can subvert the effectiveness of immune checkpoint therapy for cancer treatment. The key objectives are to: 1) elucidate the mechanisms by which NK cells constrain the efficacy of immune checkpoint therapy, 2) evaluate the contribution of the NKG2D receptor in this process, and 3) translate the findings...
- This Project Grant award from the National Cancer Institute (CFDA 93.395 - Cancer Treatment Research) provides $736,168 to the Sloan-Kettering Institute for Cancer Research to develop first-in-class antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) and payloads specifically designed for combination with external beam radiotherapy. The key products and services to be delivered include: Developing HER2-directed ADCs containing DNA damage response inhibitors as payloads, which have demonstrated efficacy in vitro and...
- This Project Grant award from the National Cancer Institute (CFDA 93.395 - Cancer Treatment Research) provides $2,253,869 to Celdara Medical, LLC to develop CM-HZ01, a novel non-alpha-IL2 therapeutic for the treatment of metastatic melanoma. The funding supports advancing CM-HZ01 to the Investigational New Drug (IND) application stage, with the goal of providing a best-in-class immunotherapy for patients with limited effective treatment options for this deadly form of skin cancer. The project...
- The U.S. National Cancer Institute (NCI) has awarded a $398,997 Project Grant under the Cancer Treatment Research federal grant program (CFDA 93.395) to Immunogenik, Inc. to enhance cancer therapeutics with a novel 3-in-1 chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cell approach. The research aims to target tumor-associated myeloid cells, which can suppress anti-tumor immune responses, by inhibiting the immunosuppressive LAIR1 signaling pathway. Key deliverables include demonstrating the efficacy of LAIR1...
- This federal Project Grant award from the National Cancer Institute (CFDA 93.395 - Cancer Treatment Research) provides $457,683 to the Beckman Research Institute of the City of Hope to develop and evaluate novel "Bio-Beacons" - tumor-targeting bacterial vectors engineered to secrete chemokines and cytokines. The goal is to increase the density of tumor-reactive immune cells, such as CD8 T cells, CD4 T cells, dendritic cells, and natural killer cells, within solid tumors. This is...
- This $284,201.82 Project Grant from the National Cancer Institute, a division of the Department of Health and Human Services, will fund research into malignant cell engagement in immune circuits of human colorectal cancer. The Broad Institute, Inc. will utilize single cell RNA sequencing data from over 700,000 malignant, immune, and stromal cells from colorectal cancer patients to test the hypothesis that malignant cells expressing interferon-stimulated genes acutely promote anti-tumor immunity,...
- This Project Grant award of $306,739.00, provided by the National Cancer Institute under the Cancer Treatment Research program (CFDA 93.395), aims to improve treatment outcomes for patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), the most prevalent form of liver cancer. The research focuses on identifying the most effective inhibitors of the enzyme ectonucleotide pyrophosphatase-phosphodiesterase 1 (ENPP1) in HCC models. ENPP1 plays a key role in suppressing the immune response against HCC...
