Bio-Thera Solutions Ltd. has synthesized new antibody-drug conjugates comprising trastuzumab targeting HER2 (erbB2) covalently linked to exatecan through a linker reported to be useful for the treatment of cancer, inflammation, autoimmune disorders and infections.
Lunan New Time Biotechnical Co. Ltd. has identified new camptothecin derivatives and their antibody-drug conjugates reported to be useful for the treatment of cancer.
Neok Bio Inc. has obtained IND clearance from the FDA for NEOK-001, enabling initiation of a phase I trial for solid tumors. Dosing is expected to begin in the coming months, and initial clinical data are anticipated next year.
Researchers at DEM Biopharma Inc. reported preclinical findings demonstrating the efficacy of DEM-301, a bifunctional antibody-drug conjugate (ADC) engineered to selectively recognize and eliminate tumor cells that express DEM-TXX.
Tahoe Therapeutics and Alloy Therapeutics Inc. are forming a jointly seeded new company focused on developing first-in-class antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) for patients with hard-to-treat cancers. The joint venture will advance two ADC programs directed at novel tumor targets discovered by Tahoe using its proprietary Mosaic platform and large-scale, perturbative single-cell datasets.
Antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) are promising biotherapeutics composed of an antibody plus a cytotoxic payload via a chemical linker, thus allowing the delivery of cytotoxic payload to target cancer cells. Among cancer glycoproteins studied in cancer research, mucin-1 (MUC1) is among the most extensively researched.
Remegen Ltd. has synthesized antibody-drug conjugates consisting of anti-CDCP1 antibodies covalently linked to cytotoxic drugs through linkers reported to be useful for the treatment of cancer.
Arbele Pte Ltd.’s ARB-1002 has been awarded orphan drug designation by the FDA for the treatment of pancreatic cancer. ARB-1002 is an antibody-drug conjugate comprising an anti-CDH17 monoclonal antibody chemically linked to a potent cytotoxic agent.
Elasmogen Ltd. has identified antibody-drug conjugates comprising antibodies covalently linked to a cytotoxic drug through a linker reported to be useful for the treatment of cancer, autoimmune and inflammatory disorders.
