BBO-10203 is currently being evaluated in the Phase 1 BREAKER-101 trial (NCT06625775) in patients with HER2+ and HR+/HER2- breast cancer, KRAS mutant colorectal cancer, and KRAS mutant non-small cell lung cancer.

This publication describes how BBO-10203 disrupts the RAS–PI3Kα interaction without impairing insulin signaling, resulting in broad antitumor activity across multiple cancer models. It also shows enhanced efficacy in combination with other targeted agents.

Happy to share our new paper! 🎉 We show that #cGAS–#STING inflammation drives premature #aging in response to telomere shortening in #zebrafish. 🧬 Telomere-driven aging occurs in 2 stages: 1️⃣ Senescence, inflammaging, cancer 2️⃣ Genome instability, death tinyurl.com/34rhn67z

Our structural-guided insights contributed to the design of BBO-8520, a first-in-class dual inhibitor targeting both GTP-bound (ON) and GDP-bound (OFF) KRAS G12C. Excited to see this work now published in @CD_AACR! @FredNatLab @BridgeBioPharma

“We highlight the differences between human and mouse telomere biology that may contribute to discrepancies between human diseases and mouse models. Finally, we discuss recent efforts to generate new ‘humanized’ mouse models to better model human telomere biology.” 👇

In our #RNA focus issue, we invited viewpoints from three groups on the controversy over PRC2-RNA interactions and asked how they might reconcile the findings on the topic. dlvr.it/TF7h5W dlvr.it/TF7h5h dlvr.it/TF7h6G

I've submitted my first ever tenure-track job application. Officially, I'm on tenure-track job market. My major interest is membrane protein structure & function. As a first-gen immigrant scientist, even being able to apply is a long way from a working-class family home in India.
