  • Patent number: 9975933
    Abstract: A tumor tissue-penetrating peptide specifically binding to neuropilin, or a fusion protein, a small molecule drug, a nanoparticle, or a liposome having the peptide fused therein is provided, as well as a method for preparing the same and a pharmaceutical composition comprising the same for treating, diagnosing, or preventing cancer or angiogenesis-related diseases. The tumor tissue-penetrating peptide is fused to the C-terminus of an anticancer antibody heavy-chain constant region (Fc) and the fused antibody specifically binds to neuropilin, and specifically accumulates in tumor tissue, widens intercellular gaps between tumor vascular endothelial cells, promotes extravasation, increases infiltration within tumor tissue, and shows a remarkably increased in vivo tumor-suppressing activity.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: May 22, 2014
    Date of Patent: May 22, 2018
    Assignee: AJOU UNIVERSITY INDUSTRY-ACADEMIC COOPERATION FOUNDATION
    Inventors: Yong Sung Kim, Tae Hwan Shin, Yae Jin Kim, Eun Sil Sung
