Researchers from Biocytogen Pharmaceuticals (Beijing) Co. Ltd. and Doma Biopharmaceutical (Suzhou) Co. Ltd. reported the discovery and preclinical data of DM-005, a novel fully human EGFR × MET bispecific antibody-drug conjugate (ADC) being developed for the treatment of cancer.
Debiopharm Research & Manufacturing SA has disclosed new antibody-drug conjugates consisting of monoclonal antibodies targeting CD37 covalently linked to a cytotoxic agent through a linker.
Researchers from Ambrx Inc. and Novocodex Biopharmaceuticals Co. Ltd. presented preclinical data for ARX-305, a next-generation anti-CD70 antibody-drug conjugate (ADC), being developed for the treatment of CD70-expressing cancers.
Angiex Inc. has received FDA clearance of its IND application for AGX-101, a novel TM4SF1-directed antibody-drug conjugate (ADC) being developed for the treatment of solid cancers.
Researchers from Shanghai Henlius Biotech Inc. presented the discovery and preclinical characterization of HLX-42, a next-generation EGFR-targeting antibody-drug conjugate (ADC) being developed for the treatment of cancer.
Epithelial cell adhesion molecule (EpCAM) is involved in cancer cell invasion while it acts as a negative regulator of adhesion. EpCAM is overexpressed in several cancer types, such as colorectal, ovarian or gastric cancer, and its expression is associated with a worse prognosis.
NaPi2b is a sodium-dependent phosphate transporter that is mainly responsible for phosphate homeostasis in humans. Overexpression of NaPi2b has been associated with several types of cancers such as lung, ovarian, thyroid or breast carcinomas and thus is considered a therapeutic target to exploit in these conditions.
Antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) are effective anti-cancer agents in a wide variety of solid and hematologic cancers. CD30 (TNFRSF8), a member of the TNF receptor superfamily is the target of antibody drug conjugate Adcetris (brentuximab vedotin/BV, Seagen Inc.) approved for use in multiple CD30-expressing lymphomas.
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.
