Abstract In recent years, the field of antibody drug conjugates (ADC) has seen a resurgence, largely driven by clinical benefit observed in patients treated with ADCs incorporating camptothecin-based topoisomerase I inhibitor payloads. Herein, we present development novel camptothecin ZD06519 (FD1), which been specifically designed for its application as an ADC payload. A panel analogs different substituents at C-7 and C-10 positions core was prepared tested vitro. Selected compounds...

Abstract Background: Folate Receptor alpha (FRα) is a validated cancer target that prevalently expressed in multiple cancers with high unmet need, including ovarian and other gynecological cancers, NSCLC, endometrial TNBC. Due to FRα’s favorable expression profile, antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) are being explored this setting. Here we present the preclinical characterization of new anti-FRα ADC, ZW191. ZW191 bystander active antibody drug conjugate (ADC) comprised humanized IgG1 conjugated...

Abstract Background: Folate Receptor alpha (FRa) is a validated cell surface cancer target that prevalently expressed in multiple cancers with high unmet need, including ovarian and other gynecological cancers, while exhibiting minimal expression normal tissues. Due to FRa’s favorable profile, antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) are being explored this setting. Here we present the preclinical characterization of new anti-FRa ADC, ZW191. ZW191 an antibody drug conjugate (ADC) comprised humanized...
