TLDR
This Review focuses on emerging and novel mechanisms of action of antibodies and innovative targeting strategies that could extend their therapeutic applications, including antibody–drug conjugates, bispecific antibodies and antibody engineering to facilitate more effective delivery.
Abstract
Antibody therapeutics are now established as a major drug class. Here, Carter and Lazar comprehensively discuss current and emerging platforms and technologies for antibody therapeutics, with an emphasis on approaches that could extend their therapeutic applications, including antibody–drug conjugates, bispecific antibodies and antibody engineering to enable more effective delivery.

Antibody–drug conjugates for cancer

TL;DR: Recent clinical experience with the approved ADCs and other promising late-stage candidates on the horizon are reviewed, following an overview of the biology and chemistry of ADCs.
Journal ArticleDOI

Unlocking the potential of antibody-drug conjugates for cancer therapy.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors discuss the current state of knowledge regarding the design, mechanism of action and clinical efficacy of ADCs as well as the apparent limitations of this treatment class, and propose a path forward by highlighting several hypotheses and novel strategies to maximize the potential benefit that ADC can provide to patients with cancer.

Experimental and computational approaches to estimate solubility and permeability in drug discovery and development settings

TL;DR: Experimental and computational approaches to estimate solubility and permeability in discovery and development settings are described in this article, where the rule of 5 is used to predict poor absorption or permeability when there are more than 5 H-bond donors, 10 Hbond acceptors, and the calculated Log P (CLogP) is greater than 5 (or MlogP > 415).

The blockade of immune checkpoints in cancer immunotherapy

TL;DR: Preliminary clinical findings with blockers of additional immune-checkpoint proteins, such as programmed cell death protein 1 (PD1), indicate broad and diverse opportunities to enhance antitumour immunity with the potential to produce durable clinical responses.
Journal ArticleDOI

Combined Nivolumab and Ipilimumab or Monotherapy in Untreated Melanoma.

TL;DR: Among previously untreated patients with metastatic melanoma, nivolumab alone or combined with ipilimumab resulted in significantly longer progression-free survival than ipILimumab alone, and in patients with PD-L1-negative tumors, the combination of PD-1 and CTLA-4 blockade was more effective than either agent alone.

Ranibizumab for Neovascular Age-Related Macular Degeneration

TL;DR: Intravitreal administration of ranibizumab for 2 years prevented vision loss and improved mean visual acuity, with low rates of serious adverse events, in patients with minimally classic or occult (with no classic lesions) choroidal neovascularization secondary to age-related macular degeneration.
