This ADC product is comprised of an anti-DLL4 monoclonal antibody conjugated via a MC-Vc-PAB linker to SN38. The SN-38 is targeted to certain cancers by immunerecognition and delivered into cancer cells via receptor mediated endocytosis. Within the cell, SN-38 binds to DNA, causes DNA damage.

- Overview
- This gene is a homolog of the Drosophila delta gene. The delta gene family encodes Notch ligands that are characterized by a DSL domain, EGF repeats, and a transmembrane domain.
ADC Antibody
- Overview
- Humanized Anti-DLL4 IgG2-kappa antibody, Demcizumab
ADC Linker
- Name
- MC-Vc-PAB (maleimidocaproyl-valine-citrulline-p-aminobenzoyloxycarbonyl)
- Description
- Peptide linkers, belonging to Enzymatically cleavable linkers, combine greater systemic stability with rapid enzymatic release of the drug in the target cell. The scission of peptidic bonds relies on lysosomal proteolytic enzymes, which have very low activities in blood due to endogenous inhibitors and the unfavorably high pH value of blood.
ADC payload drug
- Name
- SN-38 (7-ethyl-10-hydroxycamptothecin)
- Description
- SN38 (7-ethyl-10-hydroxy camptothecin) is an active metabolite of the cancer prodrug, irinotecan, with the ability of inhibiting Topoisomerase I, which is belong to the camptothecin family. SN-38 is formed via hydrolysis of irinotecan by carboxylesterases and metabolized via glucuronidation by UGT1A1.
