    Abstract: The present invention relates to polypeptides which are covalently bound to molecular scaffolds such that two or more peptide loops are subtended between attachment points to the scaffold. In particular, the invention describes peptides which are high affinity binders of Nectin-4. The invention also includes drug conjugates comprising said peptides, conjugated to one or more effector and/or functional groups, to pharmaceutical compositions comprising said peptide ligands and drug conjugates and to the use of said peptide ligands and drug conjugates in preventing, suppressing or treating a disease or disorder mediated by Nectin-4.

    Abstract: The present invention relates to polypeptides which are covalently bound to molecular scaffolds such that two or more peptide loops are subtended between attachment points to the scaffold. In particular, the invention describes peptides which bind to P-selectin. The invention also relates to multimeric binding complexes of polypeptides which are covalently bound to molecular scaffolds such that two or more peptide loops are subtended between attachment points to the scaffold that are binders of P-selectin. The invention also includes drug conjugates comprising said peptides and complexes, conjugated to one or more effector and/or functional groups, to pharmaceutical compositions comprising said peptide ligands, complexes and drug conjugates and the use of said peptide ligands and drug conjugates in preventing, suppressing or treating a disease or disorder mediated by a cell adhesion molecule, such as P-selectin, including vaso-occlusive crisis and sickle cell disease-related conditions, cancer, or COVID-19.
