SK Life Science Labs Unveils Promising Cancer Research at AACR Annual Meeting
- On April 28, 2025, at the AACR meeting in King of Prussia, Pa., SK Life Science Labs—operating under SK Biopharmaceuticals—unveiled research on novel p300-selective degraders with potential applications in treating prostate cancer and other malignancies involving CBP protein alterations.
- This research builds on SK Group's focus on biopharmaceutical innovation and uses heterobifunctional degraders to target the p300 protein, which is essential for cancer cell survival.
- The degraders demonstrated high potency, once-daily oral administration, rapid p300 degradation, and significant tumor growth inhibition in tumor-bearing mice, particularly in difficult-to-treat prostate and CBP-mutated cancers.
- Ryan Kruger, Ph.D., who leads scientific research at SK Life Science Labs, highlighted that targeting p300 with selective degraders can quickly inhibit tumor progression in difficult cancers while minimizing side effects through precise action, providing optimism for the creation of safer cancer treatments.
- This breakthrough demonstrates SK Life Science Labs' innovative protein degradation strategy, offering promising new treatment options that could improve safety and effectiveness for hard-to-treat cancer types with limited therapies available.
