  • Publication number: 20230022596
    Abstract: Novel neoantigen-eliciting antibody drug conjugates are disclosed. These compounds or pharmaceutically acceptable salts, hydrates, solvates, isomers, or tautomers thereof are useful for the treatment of disorders, including but not limited to pancreatic cancer and other check point positive cancers. More particularly, these compounds may comprise biologically active polypeptides or hormones modified to include the attachment of therapeutic compounds using linkers. The compounds of the disclosure, or pharmaceutically acceptable salts, hydrates, solvates, isomers, or tautomers thereof, also comprise therapeutic compounds connected to linkers.

  • Publication number: 20220064249
    Abstract: Novel insulin, insulin-fusion proteins and insulin homologs protein-small molecule drug conjugates, where conjugation takes place through the use of cleavable and non-cleavable linkers are disclosed. The small molecules chemically linked to the protein carrier are imported into the specific insulin-responsive target tissue or cell through receptor-mediated endocytosis and released from the carrier protein through enzymatic cleavage of the linker-drug moiety or through lysosomal degradation of the carrier protein. Free drug can then act to modify insulin receptor-triggered biochemical pathways that are altered in conditions of insulin-resistance. Drug will correct altered pathway allowing re-sensitization of receptor signaling. This will greatly aid in the resolution of pathologies either initiated at the onset of insulin resistance or exacerbated by it.

  • Publication number: 20210324031
    Abstract: Novel leptin and leptin-fusion protein-small molecule drug conjugates are disclosed, where conjugation takes place through the use of cleavable and non-cleavable linkers. The small molecules chemically linked to the protein carrier are imported into the specific leptin-responsive target tissue or cell through receptor-mediated endocytosis and released from the carrier protein through enzymatic cleavage of the linker-drug moiety or through lysosomal degradation of the carrier protein. Free drug then act to modify leptin receptor-triggered biochemical pathways that are altered in conditions of leptin-resistance. Drug will correct altered pathway allowing resensitization of receptor signaling. This can greatly aid in the resolution of pathologies either initiated at the onset of leptin resistance or exacerbated by it.
