  • Patent number: 11413353
    Abstract: In some aspects, the invention relates to an antibody-drug conjugate, comprising an antibody; a linker; and an active agent. The antibody-drug conjugate may comprise a self-immolative group. The linker may comprise an O-substituted oxime, e.g., wherein the oxygen atom of the oxime is substituted with a group that covalently links the oxime to the active agent; and the carbon atom of the oxime is substituted with a group that covalently links the oxime to the antibody.

  • Publication number: 20220218840
    Abstract: The present invention relates to antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) wherein a plurality of active agents are conjugated to an antibody through at least one branched linker. The branched linker may comprise a branching unit, and two active agents are coupled to the branching unit through a secondary linker and the branching unit is coupled to the antibody by a primary linker. The active agents may be the same or different. In certain such embodiments, two or more such branched linkers are conjugated to the antibody, e.g., 2-4 branched linkers, which may each be coupled to a different C-terminal cysteine of a heavy or light chain of the antibody. The branched linker may comprise one active agent coupled to the branching unit by a first branch and a second branch that comprises a polyethylene glycol moiety coupled to the branching unit. In certain such embodiments, two or more such branched linkers are conjugated to the antibody, e.g.
