Antibody Drug Conjugates; Drugs Designed As a Targeted Therapy for Treating Cancer
Antibody drug conjugates (ADCs) are a new class of
highly potent therapeutics. They combine a monoclonal antibody (mAb) with an
antigen to target cancer cells. Antibody drug conjugates are a class of drugs
designed to treat cancer. ADC is a type of
cancer therapy that uses an antibody to target cancer cells. The conjugated
drug is usually made up of a monoclonal antibody linked to a small molecule
that is stable in water. ADCs are designed to target cancer cells and are
approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA).
The Global
Antibody Drug Conjugates Market is estimated to be valued at US$ 4.29 Bn in 2021, and is expected to exhibit a CAGR of 14.0% over the forecast period
(2021-2028).
As of June 2022, the FDA has approved 12 ADC cancer
therapies, (ado-trastuzumab emtansine (Kadcyla), brentuximab vedotin
(Adcetris), inotuzumab ozogamicin (Besponsa), gemtuzumab ozogamicin (Mylotarg),
Moxetumomab pasudotox (Lumoxiti), Enfortumab vedotin (Padcev), Sacituzumab
govitecan (Trodelvy), Trastuzumab deruxtecan (Enhertu), polatuzumab
vedotin-piiq (Polivy), belantamab mafodotin-blmf (Blenrep), loncastuximab
tesirine-lpyl (ZYNLONTA), and tisotumab vedotin-tftv (Tivdak), 5 for solid
tumors and 7 for hematological malignancies.
There are 12 FDA approved Antibody
Drug Conjugates and multiple
clinical trials. They can be used in combination with other drugs and are
increasingly being investigated for use in cancer treatment. Antibody drug
conjugates are highly specific cancer therapeutics work by targeting cancer
cells with monoclonal antibody. These complex molecules are linked to a
cytotoxic drug, which then directs itself to tumor cells overexpressing the
target. The combination of antigen-specificity and potency makes ADCs an
excellent choice for a number of applications.
Antibody
Drug Conjugates (ADCs) are drugs
designed to target specific cancer cells and release a toxic drug into the
cancer cell. ADCs are generally well tolerated with few predictable adverse
reactions as well as new medical issues that need careful approach. In short,
ADCs are a promising cancer treatment and show promise in the development of
effective cancer therapies.
