Core Viewpoint - Cancer remains a leading cause of death globally, prompting the search for new targeted therapies, particularly antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) which show promise in delivering chemotherapy directly to cancer cells while minimizing side effects [2][3]. Group 1: Current ADC Limitations - Current ADCs have a drug-to-antibody ratio (DAR) of only 2-8, limiting the range of chemotherapy drugs that can be used, as only highly potent drugs can be selected [2][6]. - The limited DAR means that ADCs cannot utilize a broader spectrum of less potent chemotherapy drugs, which constrains treatment options [6]. Group 2: Introduction of ABC Technology - The newly developed antibody-bottlebrush prodrug conjugates (ABC) offer modular synthesis and a significantly higher DAR, allowing for a wider range of effective payloads, including less potent chemotherapy drugs [3][9]. - ABC technology enables the delivery of hundreds of prodrug molecules via a single antibody, enhancing the customization and diversity of drug combinations [8][9]. Group 3: Experimental Results - In preclinical models, ABCs demonstrated superior efficacy in eliminating tumors compared to traditional ADCs and non-targeted prodrugs, even at very low doses [13][14]. - The study showed that ABCs outperformed FDA-approved ADCs like T-DXd and TDM-1, indicating a potential for enhanced treatment outcomes [14]. Group 4: Future Directions - The research team plans to explore combinations of different chemotherapy drugs with varying mechanisms to improve overall efficacy [14]. - There is potential for using various monoclonal antibodies, as over 100 have been approved, to create new targeted cancer therapies through the ABC platform [14].
