Peptide
Comment: In >10% of solid tumours aberrant Wnt/β-catenin signaling is a recognised driver of resistance to immunotherapy and is associated with poor prognosis. Zolucatetide (FOG-001; Parabilis Medicines) is a cyclic peptide inhibitor of the interaction between β-catenin and the T cell (transcription) factor TCF4 [1]. This action disrupts Wnt signaling, and is proposed for anti-tumour potential. The peptide is highly modified to optimise target engagement and pharmacokinetics.
