AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Existing anti-Ang2 antibodies and direct Tie2 activators have shown insufficient efficacy in treating vascular abnormalities and cancer, while existing Tie2 activators have short half-lives and unstable physicochemical properties, and small molecule inhibitors activate other receptors, leading to inefficiencies in normalizing pathologic blood vessels.

Method used

Development of fusion proteins that bind both Tie2 and soluble target ligands, forming a complex that is internalized and degraded within cells, specifically targeting TNF-a, IL-23, or C5a, to normalize blood vessels and degrade these ligands.

Benefits of technology

The fusion proteins effectively stabilize blood vessels by internalizing and degrading soluble ligands, improving oxygen delivery and drug penetration in tumors, and reducing vascular leakage, thus enhancing therapeutic efficacy.
