  • Publication number: 20140315786
    Abstract: The present invention relates to targeting an intracellular enzyme for release of covalently linked bioactives which results in a synergistic effect between the bioactives. The present invention relates to the use of bioactives that are directly connected covalently or through a covalent molecular linker which have increased therapeutic activity when released as the free bioactives by intracellular enzymes as compared to when the bioactives are administered individually (i.e. not covalently linked). Further, methods are described of administering to patients in need thereof, bioactives as linked bioactives having increased therapeutic activity. Accordingly, this invention also relates to methods of treating patients for certain diseases.
