ADAM9 (a disintegrin and metalloproteinase 9) is overexpressed in several gastrointestinal cancers, with expression levels correlating with suppressive tumor microenvironment, metastasis and poor prognosis. DB-1317, under development at Duality Biologics (Suzhou) Co. Ltd., is an ADAM9-targeting antibody-drug conjugate including a topoisomerase inhibitor payload P1003 at a drug-antibody ratio of 8.
Duality Biologics (Suzhou) Co, Ltd. has synthesized proteolysis targeting chimera (PROTAC) compounds comprising an E3 ubiquitin ligase binding moiety covalently linked to a eukaryotic peptide chain release factor GTP-binding subunit ERF3A (GSPT1)-targeting moiety through a linker reported to be useful for the treatment of cancer.
Antibody-drug conjugate developer Duality Biotherapeutics Inc. is gearing up for a second IPO attempt this year, having filed on Feb. 27 a new prospectus on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange. Two other biotechs – Genuine Biotech Ltd. and Cloudbreak Pharma Inc. – also are having another go at a listing in Hong Kong in 2025.

Researchers from Duality Biologics (Suzhou) Co. Ltd. presented the discovery and preclinical characterization of DB-1314, a novel delta-like ligand 3 (DLL3)-targeting antibody-drug conjugate (ADC) for the treatment of cancer.
Even though HER3 is validated as a promising therapeutic target for cancer therapy, no HER3-targeting antibodies or antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) have been approved for clinical use. Investigators at Duality Biologics (Suzhou) Co. Ltd. have developed DB-1310, a new HER3-targeting ADC being studied for the treatment of solid tumors, and published findings from preclinical characterization.
Duality Biologics (Suzhou) Co. Ltd. has synthesized antibody-drug conjugates comprising anti-GPC3 antibodies covalently linked to exatecan derivatives through a linker. They are reported to be useful for the treatment of cancer.
Beigene Co. Ltd. and Duality Biologics (Suzhou) Co. Ltd. have signed an agreement for Beigene to acquire an exclusive option for a global clinical and commercial license to a preclinical antibody-drug conjugate (ADC) therapy for select solid tumors.
