Advanced targeted therapies in cancer: Drug nanocarriers, the future of chemotherapy.

TL;DR: This review offers a detailed description of different cytotoxic drug carriers, such as liposomes, carbon nanotubes, dendrimers, polymeric micelles,polymeric conjugates and polymeric nanoparticles, in passive and active targeted cancer therapy, by enhancing the permeability and retention or by the functionalization of the surface of the carriers.

Development of potent monoclonal antibody auristatin conjugates for cancer therapy.

TL;DR: The in vitro and in vivo properties of monoclonal antibody (mAb)-drug conjugates consisting of the potent synthetic dolastatin 10 analogs auristatin E (AE) and monomethylaurists E (MMAE), linked to the chimeric mAbs cBR96 and cAC10, illustrate the importance of linker technology, drug potency and conjugation methodology in developing safe and efficacious mAb-drug conjugs for cancer therapy.

Arming antibodies: prospects and challenges for immunoconjugates

TL;DR: For the next generation of immunoconjugates, advances in protein engineering will permit greater control of mAb targeting, clearance and pharmacokinetics, resulting in significantly improved delivery to tumors of radioisotopes and potent anticancer drugs.

Effects of drug loading on the antitumor activity of a monoclonal antibody drug conjugate

TL;DR: By decreasing drug loading per antibody, the therapeutic index was increased demonstrating that drug loading is a key design parameter for antibody-drug conjugates.

cAC10-vcMMAE, an anti-CD30-monomethyl auristatin E conjugate with potent and selective antitumor activity.

TL;DR: CAC10-vcMMAE was highly potent and selective against CD30+ tumor lines but was more than 300-fold less active on antigen-negative cells in SCID mouse xenograft models of anaplastic large cell lymphoma or Hodgkin disease, and was efficacious at doses as low as 1 mg/kg.
Journal ArticleDOI

Targeted cancer therapy: conferring specificity to cytotoxic drugs.

TL;DR: The antitumor activity of these targeted agents was superior to that of the antibodies alone or the standard anticancer drugs in human tumor xenograft models and opens the door to the future development of highly potent drugs that were too toxic on their own to be therapeutically useful.
