摘要:
Screening of a library of particles in vivo and/or in vitro using Polyplex Iterative Combinatorial Optimization (PICO) allows for the design of particles for targeting a specific organ, tissue (e.g., cancer), or cell. Particles may, for example, include different targeting agents (e.g., aptamers or plurality of aptamers) on their surfaces, and the aptamer or aptamers may be evolved to provide better targeting of the particles. Libraries of particles are enriched in characteristics of particles that have been found to migrate to a tissue of interest, be taken up by cells, etc. The process may be repeated to engineer particles of a desired specificity or biological function.
摘要:
The present invention provides a universal, yet adaptable, anti-tag chimeric antigen receptor (AT-CAR) system which provides T cells with the ability and specificity to recognize and kill target cells, such as tumor cells, that have been marked by tagged antibodies. As an example, αFITC-CAR-expressing T cells have been developed that specifically recognize various human cancer cells when those cells are bound by cancer-reactive FITC-labeled antibodies. The activation of αFITC-CAR-expressing T cells is shown to induce efficient target lysis, T cell proliferation, and cytokine/chemokine production. The system can be used to treating subjects having cancer.
摘要:
The description relates to imide-based compounds, including bifunctional compounds comprising the same, which find utility as modulators of targeted ubiquitination, especially inhibitors of a variety of polypeptides and other proteins which are degraded and/or otherwise inhibited by bifunctional compounds according to the present invention. In particular, the description provides compounds, which contain on one end a ligand which binds to the cereblon E3 ubiquitin ligase and on the other end a moiety which binds a target protein such that the target protein is placed in proximity to the ubiquitin ligase to effect degradation (and inhibition) of that protein. Compounds can be synthesized that exhibit a broad range of pharmacological activities consistent with the degradation/inhibition of targeted polypeptides of nearly any type.
摘要:
The present description includes compounds that act as degraders of a target protein, wherein degradation is independent of the class of the target protein or its localization. In certain embodiments, the description includes a compound comprising a protein degradation moiety covalently bound to a linker, wherein the ClogP of the compound is equal to or higher than 1.5. The target protein contemplated within the description comprises an androgen receptor. Compounds of the present description may be used to treat disease states wherein protein degradation is a viable therapeutic approach, such as cancer or any sort of oxidative stress disease state.
摘要:
The present invention relates to a prodrug which comprises at least one pharmaceutically and/or diagnostically active compound bound by a cleavable linker, a receptor and/or antigen targeting moiety and a protein-binding moiety which is capable of binding to a carrier molecule.
摘要:
Described herein are compositions and methods for use in targeted drug delivery using cell receptor binding drug delivery conjugates containing hydrophilic spacer linkers for use in imaging, diagnosing, and/or treating diseases and disease states caused by pathogenic cell populations.
摘要:
The present invention provides a drug delivery system for targeted delivery of therapeutic agent-containing particles to tissues, cells, and intracellular compartments. The invention provides targeted particles comprising a particle, one or more targeting moieties, and one or more therapeutic agents to be delivered and pharmaceutical compositions comprising inventive targeted particles. The present invention provides methods of designing, manufacturing, and using inventive targeted particles and pharmaceutical compositions thereof.
摘要:
The invention relates to a Prodrug activation method, for therapeutics, wherein use is made of abiotic reactive chemical groups that exhibit bio-orthogonal reactivity towards each other. The invention also relates to a Prodrug kit comprising at least one Prodrug and at least one Activator, wherein the Prodrug comprises a Drug and a first Bio-orthogonal Reactive Group (the Trigger), and wherein the Activator comprises a second Bio-orthogonal Reactive Group. The invention also relates to targeted therapeutics used in the above-mentioned method and kit. The invention particularly pertains to antibody-drug conjugates and to bi- and trispecific antibody derivatives.
