AI Technical Summary
There is a need for antibody drug conjugates with β-glucuronidase-cleavable linkers that can selectively deliver a drug to a biological target with favorable physicochemical properties, including solubility and lipophilicity, to address the non-favorable side effects of microtubule inhibitor therapy in cancer treatment.
Conjugates comprising a microtubule inhibitor linked through a β-glucuronidase-cleavable linker, which undergo slower enzymatic cleavage, improving stability, solubility, and reducing off-target toxicity, making them suitable for cancer treatment.
The conjugates exhibit improved efficacy and tolerability by reducing the release of free drug in off-target tissues, enhancing stability and solubility, and providing a favorable toxicity profile.
