Protein drugs have the potential to induce immunogenicity, whose consequences may affect the efficacy or even be life-threatening. New models of biotherapy, such as antibody-conjugated (ADC) drugs, fusion proteins, and polyethylene glycolization,Read More…
Fast-Tracking ADC Drugs Manufacturing and Production Technology
When we get an ideal candidate for ADC, the next step is to consider how to scale it up. This step is important because it is directly related to the post-market marketRead More…
Overview: Mechanism of Action of ADC
Specific Binding ADC drugs specifically bind to antigenic epitopes of cancer cells through their “guiding” antibodies, and enter into cancer cells through antigen-mediated endocytosis, then release the “warheads” – highly active cytotoxicRead More…
Comprehensively Review Targets for ADC
At present, ADC drugs are mainly used in the field of tumors, so antigenic targets are required to be highly expressed in tumor cells but with low or no expression in normalRead More…
Clinical Results of immunogenicity of Multiple ADC Molecules
Protein drugs have high risks of inducing immunogenicity, which may affect the efficacy or even be life-threatening. Most biotherapies, such as antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs), fusion proteins, and polyethylene glycolization, carry unnatural humanRead More…
Booming 2020 for ADC—Achieved $40 billion Trade
ADC drugs are undoubtedly the focus of many pharmaceutical companies competing for layout in 2020, reaching $40 billion deal in less than a year. AstraZeneca built a partnership with the Daiichi SankyoRead More…
Analysis of the ADCs Drugs Approved by FDA
Antibody-drug conjugate (ADC) has achieved great progress in the past decade. So far, ten ADC drugs have been approved by the FDA, of which five were approved in 2019 and 2020, andRead More…
Design ADC with Creative Biolabs – Episode II
In the last blog, we learned that the main feature of ADC candidate target antigen is that it needs to be highly expressed on the surface of tumor cells and not expressedRead More…
Design ADC with Creative Biolabs-Episode I
As we all known, antibody-drug conjugate (ADC) is a drug obtained by chemical conjuagtion of antibody, linker and cytotoxin. Compared with simple monoclonal antibodies, ADC has better targeting and more efficient killingRead More…
Blockbuster Deal for ADC: Merck Sharp & Dohme and Seattle Genetics Reach a $4.5 Billion Partnership
On September 13, 2020, Gilead announced that it would acquire Immunomedics, whose core product is Trop-2 ADC drug Trodelvy, for more than $20 billion. On September 14, 2020, Merck Sharp & DohmeRead More…
