摘要:
There is disclosed an antibody and antibody-drug conjugate for targeting drug delivery as well as a class of chemicals, termed a drug-binding molecule of complementary structure (csDBM). The csDBM is designed to "fit" the drug by combining multiple non-covalent interactions between functional groups on the drug and opposing functional groups on the csDBM. The net result on the antibody-csDBM-drug conjugate is a drug stably bound to the csDBM so as not to dissociate during in vivo administration, but not so tightly bound to allow drug dissociation from the conjugate without significant loss of activity and retaining the drug's ability to bind to a higher affinity site on or within the target cell.

摘要:
A process for reducing the non-target organ accumulation of immunoconjugates administered in vivo during therapeutic or diagnostic procedures involves the use of immunoconjugates comprising linkers that are cleavable at the non-target organs. The linkers are cleavable under conditions present, or induced, at one or more non-target organs, which include the kidneys or the liver.

摘要:
A method for radiolabelling peptides using polyaminocarboxylate ligands having suitable protecting groups such that they can be added to peptides by standard solid phase or solution phase peptide synthetic chemistry and can be deproteced using standard cleavage/deprotection reagents and produce the peptide/chelate conjugate as a high purity monoaddition product is provided. The cleaved and deprotected ligand-peptide molecules can then be labeled with lanthanide or actinide radionuclides. The protected polyaminocarboxylate ligands form mono-anhydrides or mono-active esters under solid phase or solution phase conditions and permit only the desired monoaddition chelate-peptide conjugate to be formed.

Compositions and methods of incorporating ligand precursors and ligands at any location within a peptide during peptide synthesis are disclosed. Derivatives of 2,4,5-triaminopentanoic acid and .gamma.-aminoglutamic acid are selectively incorporated into the peptide during solid phase or liquid phase synthesis, depending upon the choice of protecting groups. Ligand synthesis may then be completed at a later time to produce N.sub.3 S, N.sub.2 S.sub.2, and EDTA type chelating agents.

摘要:
The present invention provides cleavable conjugates whose linkers contain a labile bond that is cleavable under a variety of mild conditions, including weakly acidic. Since the agent may be bonded directly to the linker, cleavage can result in release of native agent. The invention also provides methods for producing cleavable conjugates. Preferred agents include drugs, toxins, biological response modifiers, radiodiagnostic compounds, radiotherapeutic compounds, and derivatives thereof. The targeting molecule employed in the invention may be an intact molecule, a fragment thereof, or a functional equivalent thereof. In a particularly preferred embodiment, the targeting molecule is a monoclonal antibody directed towards a tumor-associated antigen in man. The invention further provides methods for delivering to the cytoplasm of a target cell an agent free of its targeting molecule carrier. A diagnostically/therapeutically effective dose of a cleavable conjugate is administered to a warm-blooded animal such as man.
