Fibroblast activation protein (FAP)-targeting compounds (e.g., conjugates); a method for imaging cancer or fibrosis; and methods for treating an inflammatory disease/disorder and cancer.

Described herein are therapeutic pH responsive compositions comprising a block copolymer and a therapeutic agent useful for the treatment of cancer.

A tissue factor (TF)-targeted antibody-drug conjugate (ADC) and a method for preparing the ADC. The ADC is capable of binding to TF antigen with high specificity, and has high affinity, low immunogenicity, high cytotoxicity, and significant anti-tumor activity.

The disclosure relates generally to polyglutamated antifolates, formulations containing liposomes filled with the polyglutamated antifolates, methods of making the polyglutamated antifolates and liposome containing formulations, and methods of using the polyglutamated antifolates and liposome containing formulations to treat hyperproliferative disorders (e.g., cancer) and disorders of the immune system (e.g., an autoimmune disease such as rheumatoid arthritis).

This disclosure features chemical entities (e.g., a compound or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt and/or hydrate and/or prodrug of the compound) that modulate (e.g., agonize or partially agonize or antagonize) glucagon?like peptide?1 receptor (“GLP?1R”) and/or the gastric inhibitory polypeptide receptor (“GIPR”). The chemical entities are useful, e.g., for treating a subject (e.g., a human) having a disease, disorder, or condition in which modulation (e.g., agonism, partial agonism or antagonism) of GLP?1R and/or GIPR activities is beneficial for the treatment or prevention of the underlying pathology and/or symptoms and/or progression of the disease, disorder, or condition. In some embodiments, the modulation results in an enhancement of (e.g., an increase in) existing levels (e.g., normal or below normal levels) of GLP?1R and/or GIPR activity (e.g., signaling). In some embodiments, the chemical entities described herein further modulate (e.g., attenuate, uncouple)-arrestin signaling relative to what is observed with the native ligand. This disclosure also features compositions as well as other methods of using and making the said chemical entities.

Described are improved linking agents that are useful for facilitating the attachment of targeting groups, pharmacokinetic (PK) enhancers or modifiers, or other delivery agents to oligonucleotides. The described linking agents may exhibit improved reaction yields, stability, and biological activity, particularly when used in connection with oligonucleotide-based compounds, such as RNA interference (RNAi) agents.

A drug-polymer conjugate, which is a copolymer of at least one monomer of formula (I) where: X may be the same or different at each occurrence and represents a terminal functional group comprising an alkyne or an azide; Q is independently selected at each occurrence and may be present or absent and when present, represents a linking group; R is selected from the group consisting of linear or branched hydrocarbon, optionally substituted aryl and optionally substituted heteroaryl; D is a releasable bicyclic prostaglandin; L is a linker group; and at least one co-monomer of Formula III J-(Y.sup.1-A).sub.n, J represents a linking functional group, n is 2 to 8 preferably 3 to 8; Y.sup.1 comprises a polyether of formula (OR.sup.a).sub.m wherein R.sup.a is independently ethylene, propylene and butylene and m is from 1 to 300 (preferably 2 to 300) and the polyether is in chain with one or more groups which are preferably selected from one or more of optionally substituted straight or branched C.sub.1 to C.sub.10 alkylene, amino, ether, ester, amide, carbonate and carbamate; A may be the same or different at each occurrence and represents a group comprising a terminal functional group comprising an alkyne or an azide functionality, wherein said terminal functional group is complementary to the terminal functional group X of formula (I) providing triazole moieties from reaction of X and A.

The present disclosure provides protein-macromolecule conjugates, releasable linkers, and macromolecules, as defined herein. The disclosed conjugates provide unique properties that ae based at least upon the properties of linker and number of linker-Macromolecule moieties. Also provided herein are a method of synthesis and use of conjugates in treating diseases and disorders.

The present invention relates to bifunctional compounds, compositions, and methods for treating diseases or conditions mediated by aberrant histone deacetylase (HCADC) (e.g., HDAC3) activity.

The present invention relates to tyrosine-specific functionalized insulin analogs and processes of making such tyrosine-specific functionalized insulin analogs using R-3H-1,2,4-triazoline-3,5-(4H)diones (PTAD).
