The present invention relates to oligonucleotide conjugates and preparation and applications thereof. In particular, the present invention relates to an oligonucleotide conjugated to a biomolecule (e.g. an antibody) and/or an agent of interest (e.g. a drug). In certain embodiments, the oligonucleotide of the present invention is a hybridized complex of a single strand oligonucleotide carrying a biomolecule and a complementary strand oligonucleotide bearing an agent of interest where the hybridized nucleotide segment acts as a linker to link the biomolecule and the agent of interest in one molecule.

The present invention relates to an antibody-drug-conjugate. From one aspect, the invention relates to an anti-body-drug-conjugate comprising an antibody capable of binding to a Target, said antibody being conjugated to at least one drug selected from derivatives of dolastatin 10 and auristatins. The invention also comprises method of treatment and the use of said anti-body-drug-conjugate for the treatment of cancer.

This invention provides fully human monoclonal antibodies that recognize HER2. The invention further provides methods of using such monoclonal antibodies in a variety of therapeutic, diagnostic, and prophylactic indications.

A conjugate of formula I:
L-(D.sup.L).sub.P  (1) wherein L is a Ligand unit, D.sup.L is a Drug Linker unit of formula II: ##STR00001## wherein either: (a) R.sup.10 and R.sup.11 form a nitrogen-carbon double bond between the nitrogen and carbon atoms to which they are bound; or (b) R.sup.11 is OH, and R.sup.10 is: ##STR00002## p is an integer of from 1 to 20.

The present invention provides a multi-drug-loading site and high drug-loading capacity ligand-drug conjugate. The ligand-drug conjugate has a structure of general formula (I). The ligand-drug conjugate has the characteristics of high loading capacity, high drug efficacy, low toxicity, and low risks. The ligand-drug conjugate can be used particularly to connect to a low toxicity chemical molecule, thereby extending a therapeutic window. Furthermore, the present invention provides an antibody-drug conjugate molecule. The antibody-drug conjugate molecule has the characteristics of multiple drug-loading ability and high drug-loading capacity, such that the antibody-drug conjugate can carry a large amount of a low toxicity chemical molecule and achieve a therapeutic effect without depending on antibody targeting or high toxicity chemicals.
