Antibody-drug conjugates: targeted drug delivery for cancer

Current Opinion in Chemical Biology
Stephen C AlleyPeter D Senter

Abstract

The antibody-drug conjugate field has made significant progress recently owing to careful optimization of several parameters, including mAb specificity, drug potency, linker technology, and the stoichiometry and placement of conjugated drugs. The underlying reason for this has been obtained in pre-clinical biodistribution and pharmacokinetics studies showing that targeted delivery leads to high intratumoral free drug concentrations, while non-target tissues are largely spared from chemotherapeutic exposure. Recent developments in the field have led to an increase in the number of ADCs being tested clinically, with 3 in late stage clinical trials: brentuximab vedotin (also referred to as SGN-35) for Hodgkin lymphoma; Trastuzumab-DM1 for breast cancer; and Inotuzumab ozogamicin for non-Hodgkin lymphoma. This review highlights the recent pre-clinical and clinical advances that have been made.

Blood And Marrow Transplantation

The use of hematopoietic stem cell transplantation or blood and marrow transplantation (bmt) is on the increase worldwide. BMT is used to replace damaged or destroyed bone marrow with healthy bone marrow stem cells. Here is the latest research on bone and marrow transplantation.

Adhesion Molecules in Health and Disease

Cell adhesion molecules are a subset of cell adhesion proteins located on the cell surface involved in binding with other cells or with the extracellular matrix in the process called cell adhesion. In essence, cell adhesion molecules help cells stick to each other and to their surroundings. Cell adhesion is a crucial component in maintaining tissue structure and function. Discover the latest research on adhesion molecule and their role in health and disease here.

B-Cell Lymphoma

B-cell lymphomas include lymphomas that affect B cells. This subtype of cancer accounts for over 80% of non-Hodgkin lymphomas in the US. Here is the latest research.
