Abstract: The present invention concerns a compound having the following formula (I): wherein: A is in particular —N(R?a)—C(?O)—R, R?a being H or a (C1-C6)alkyl group, and R being preferably a group having the following formula (II): X is in particular chosen from the group consisting of: —SO2—N(R?b)—, R?b being H or a (C1-C6)alkyl group, —N(R?b)—SO2—, R?b being H or a (C1-C6)alkyl group, —CO—NH—, and —NH—CO—, for use for the treatment of cancers, such as metastatic cancers.

Abstract: The invention relates to an antifungal prodrug which comprises an antifungal moiety which is linked to a trigger moiety by means of a self-immolative spacer. The trigger moiety is selected from glycosyl residues and oligosaccharides, stabilizes the self-immolative spacer and is cleavable by a pathogen hydrolytic enzyme which is preferably an extracellular glycosidase (EC 3.2.1). When the trigger moiety is cleaved by the pathogen hydrolytic enzyme, the self-immolative spacer undergoes a spontaneous degradation so as to release the antifungal moiety. The invention also relates to pharmaceutical compositions comprising said prodrug and to its use in the treatment of infectious diseases.

Abstract: The present invention provides crosslinking pairs of hydrogel precursor polymers, dynamic covalent hydrogels prepared from such crosslinking pairs of hydrogel precursors, pharmaceutical compositions comprising such precursors or hydrogels and uses thereof in a variety of applications.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a new family of iNKT stimulators, referred to as 6?-O-PEGm-NHR-GalCer, which are potent analogues of KRN7000. These iNKT stimulators can advantageously be used in therapy, in particular for the prevention and/or treatment of many diseases requiring a stimulation of an immune response, such as cancer, viral, bacterial or parasitic diseases, autoimmune diseases or inflammatory diseases. The iNKT cell stimulator of the invention may be coupled to a biological carrier, such as a therapeutic and/or targeting agent, or be vectorized, for example in nanoparticles, to be specifically delivered to target cells.
