Hainan Simcere Pharmaceutical Co. Ltd. has disclosed antibody-drug conjugates comprising a glycoengineered antibody covalently linked to a cytotoxic drug through a linker reported to be useful for the treatment of cancer.
Researchers from Xi’an Jiaotong University and Southern University of Science and Technology have conducted a comprehensive preclinical study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of a second-generation CAR T therapy targeting trophoblast cell-surface antigen 2 (TROP2) for the treatment of triple-negative breast cancer.
Akari Therapeutics plc announced that it is continuing key research on its antibody-drug conjugate (ADC) payload PH1 to further demonstrate its ability to target cancers fueled by oncogenic drivers. PH1 is a spliceosome modulator designed to disrupt RNA splicing within cells. It binds spliceosome proteins SF3B1 and PH5α and targets normal splicing of pre-mRNA.

Researchers from Heidelberg Pharma AG have presented a new antibody-drug conjugate (ADC) that shows promise for treating pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC). The ADC, called hRS7 ATAC, targets trophoblast cell surface antigen 2 (TROP2), which is overexpressed in most pancreatic tumors and is associated with aggressive disease and poor prognosis.
Avidicure BV has launched with a $50 million seed financing round and a focus on developing dual agonistic, multifunctional and avidity engineered antibodies, or AVC-Boosters, to deliver targeted and potent cancer monotherapy.
Phase I/II trial results of sacituzumab tirumotecan (sac-TMT; Sichuan Kelun-Biotech Biopharmaceutical Co. Ltd.) published in Nature Medicine came a month after China’s National Medical Products Administration gave clearance to Kelun-Biotech’s supplemental NDA of sac-TMT to treat advanced non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC).
Urachal carcinoma is a rare cancer which lacks a standard drug therapy, and for which knowledge regarding its immunohistochemical features remains unclear. The aim of a recently reported investigation was finding potential markers and targets for urachal carcinoma based on antibody-drug conjugate targets, as well as its association with prognosis.
Sichuan Kelun-Biotech Biopharmaceutical Co. Ltd. won local approval of the first China-made trophoblast cell-surface antigen 2 (TROP2)-targeted antibody-drug conjugate (ADC), sacituzumab tirumotecan, as a third-line therapy for advanced breast cancer.
