Designing Bespoke Therapies

Partner With Us to Develop
Solutions to Your ADC Challenges

Our modular bioconjugation platform allows for the rapid and optimal design of a drug conjugate. The diversity of our targeting moieties, linkers, and payloads enables a tailored design to match the specific requirements of the target biology.

Our platform provides flexibility in targeting different types of cancer. It allows for different payloads (eg, enzyme inhibitors, immune activators, and cytotoxic agents), intra- and extracellularly cleavable linker designs and precise tuning of the physicochemical profile of the payload.

The range of possibilities is illustrated by the design of highly tumor cell-specific antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) using our proprietary legumain-cleavable linker and the novel KSPi-CellTrapper™ payload, which is hydrophilic and accumulates in the tumor cell to achieve enhanced cytotoxicity. After tumor cell death, the payload is unable to enter healthy cells thus limiting the well-known toxicities of ADCs.

Our small molecule drug conjugates (SMDCs) with an elastase-cleavable linker and an optimized camptothecin as payloads are designed for warhead release in the tumor microenvironment to maximize killing of the tumor and its supporting cells while limiting unwanted toxicities.
