The invention relates to conjugates that bind to targets, methods of using conjugates that bind to targets and methods of treating undesirable or aberrant cell proliferation or hyperproliferative disorders, such as tumors, cancers, neoplasia and malignancies that express a target.

There is disclosed an antibody drug conjugate (ADC) having an IgG antibody that binds to a c-Met target conjugated at both Cys sites in the hinge region of an IgG antibody. There is further disclosed a method for treating a breast cancer comprising providing an effective amount of a c-Met ADC.

The present disclosure relates to combination therapies with antibody conjugates with binding specificity for folate receptor alpha (FOLR1) and its isoforms and homologs, and compositions comprising combinations with the antibody conjugates, including pharmaceutical compositions. Also provided are methods of using the combinations with antibody conjugates and compositions thereof, such as in therapeutic and diagnostic methods.

The present invention provides anti-PTK7 antibody-drug conjugates and methods for preparing and using the same.

Disclosed herein are immunoconjugates comprising a CD46 binding domain and effector agent. Further provided herein are methods of treating cancer comprising administering to a subject having cancer a pharmaceutical composition comprising immunoconjugates comprising a CD46 binding domain and effector agent.

The present disclosure relates to antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) wherein one or more active agents are conjugated to an anti-B7-H3 antibody through a linker. The linker may comprise a unit that covalently links active agents to the antibody. The disclosure further relates to monoclonal antibodies and antigen binding fragments, variants, multimeric versions, or bispecifics thereof that specifically bind B7-H3, as well as methods of making and using these anti-B7-H3 antibodies and antigen-binding fragments thereof in a variety of therapeutic, diagnostic and prophylactic indications.

A therapeutic agent comprising a cell binding agent which binds the Receptor for Advanced Glycation End (RAGE) products linked to an anti-cancer drug, for use in the treatment of gynaecological cancer, endometriosis or polycystic ovary syndrome. Novel cell binding agents, pharmaceutical compositions and methods are also described and claimed.

Compounds and compositions are disclosed in which a quaternized drug unit is linked to a targeting ligand unit from which a tertiary amine-containing drug is released at the targeted site of action. Methods for treating diseases characterized by the targeted abnormal cells, such as cancer or an autoimmune disease using the compounds and compositions of the invention are also disclosed.

Recombinant immunotoxins containing a cytotoxic RNAse fused to an antibody or antibody fragment may be produced in mammalian cell culture. Surprisingly, immunotoxins containing a cytotoxic RNAse fused to the N-terminus of one antibody variable domain can be prepared and retain the ability to specifically bind antigen. The immunotoxins may be used in a variety of therapeutic methods for treating diseases or syndromes associated with unwanted or inappropriate cell proliferation or activation.

The present invention is directed to oxadiazole linkers and use thereof, more specifically to the compounds represented by formula I, II, and III, and their use in the preparation of antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs). The ADCs obtained from said oxadiazole linkers have high homogeneity and stability, and could be used effectively for the treatment of various diseases including tumors. The definition of the groups in formula I, II, and III is the same as that in the description. ##STR00001##
