28.3.2024 13:31:27 CET | Business Wire | Press release
Crown Bioscience, a global contract research organization (CRO) and a JSR Life Sciences company, will showcase significant contributions in preclinical and translational oncology research at the American Association for Cancer Research (AACR) 2024 meeting. Highlighting its latest research, the company will present ten posters covering a broad spectrum of data from the company's R&D program.
The data presented will cover a range of innovative techniques in oncology and immuno-oncology drug discovery and development. Posters featured at AACR include:
- The in-depth Characterization of Acute Myeloid Leukemia Patient-Derived Xenograft (PDX) Models with Hotspot Gene Mutations for Therapeutic Evaluation.
- The development of an Integrated Pipeline for Immuno-Oncology Drug Testing, using patient-derived tumor organoids with a reconstituted tumor microenvironment and fresh ex vivo patient tissue cultures, aiming to enhance therapeutic evaluation and drug development efficiency with translational patient-derived systems.
- The utilization of Large Panel Organoid Drug Testing Combined with Biomarker Analysis, set to deliver insights into mechanisms of action and boost efficiency within the drug development pipeline.
- Research on KRAS Inhibitors and PARP Inhibitor-Induced Resistant PDX Ovarian Cancer Models further expands on the knowledge base of drug resistance patterns in cancer while also assessing innovative therapeutic approaches for targeting mutated tumors, including combination therapy.
- SynAI, an adaptive AI-driven platform for in silico drug synergism screening, optimizes the exploration of compound interactions in early-stage cancer drug development.
- Magnetic Resonance Imaging and Bioluminescence Imaging for Evaluating Tumor Burden in Orthotopic Glioblastoma, merging digital technology with cancer research to forecast a new era of therapeutic strategy development.
Abstracts for all ten poster presentations can be found on a dedicated page, Crown Bioscience AACR posters 2024. Following the show, all will be available for download.
Attendees are encouraged to visit Booth #1717 to learn more about these studies and talk to Crown Bioscience’s scientists to gain deeper insights into the platforms and services on offer to advance oncology research.

Dompé Doses First Patient in Phase 3 Study of Cenegermin-bkbj in NAION14.7.2026 14:00:00 CEST | Press release
Non-arteritic anterior ischemic optic neuropathy (NAION) is a loss of blood flow to the optic nerve which causes spontaneous and rapid vision loss, for which there are currently no FDA-approved treatments. Given the substantial unmet need for effective treatments in NAION, in October 2025, Dompé was awarded a Commissioner’s National Priority Review Voucher (CNPV) by the US FDA to accelerate a potential Biologics License Application for intranasal nerve growth factor (NGF) in NAION. Dompé, a biopharmaceutical company with operations in Italy and the US, announced the first patient has been enrolled in a Phase 3 study of cenegermin-bkbj for the treatment of non-arteritic anterior ischemic neuropathy (NAION). Involving more than 130 centers globally, the Phase 3 trial, “Galassia-NAION-301” is a multicenter, double-blind study comparing cenegermin-bkbj against placebo in improving vision loss caused by NAION. “Our NGF R&D program continues to accelerate with our third clinical study of 202
