Tubulis, a German biopharmaceutical company, has announced a strategic license agreement with Bristol Myers Squibb (BMS) to develop differentiated antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) for the treatment of cancer patients. Under the agreement, Tubulis will provide BMS access to its proprietary technology platform Tubutecan and P5, which enables the creation of site-specific conjugates with improved therapeutic properties.
Antibody drug conjugates are medicines that deliver highly potent chemotherapy agents to kill cancer cells with the potential for reduced damage to healthy. Unlike conventional chemotherapy treatments, which can damage healthy cells, antibody drug conjugates (ADCs) are targeted medicines that deliver chemotherapy agents to cancer cells. ADCs deliver the chemotherapy via a linker attached to a monoclonal antibody that binds to a specific target expressed on cancer cells. After binding to the target (cancer protein or receptor), the ADC releases a cytotoxic drug into the cancer cell.
According to the Synapse drug intelligence database, the top five institutions in global ADC development progress are Takeda Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd., BSP Pharmaceuticals SpA, Rakuten Medical, Inc., GSK Plc, and Acino International AG. The top five targets in global ADC development progress are Tubulin, HER2, DNA, TOP1, and CD22. The top five indications in global ADC development progress are Breast cancer, HER2-positive
breast cancer, Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma, Urothelial carcinoma, and HER2-positive gastric cancer.
