ADC Drugs: Decoding the Present and Future of Precision Cancer ‘Missiles’

ADC Drugs: Decoding the Present and Future of Precision Cancer 'Missiles'

When the dual-antibody ADC drug iza-bren presented an astonishing “objective response rate of 100%” at the 2025 World Lung Cancer Conference, this category of drugs, known as “biological missiles,” completely rewrote the narrative logic of tumor treatment. From the first approved drug, trastuzumab, to the domestically developed dual-antibody ADCs, ADC drugs have established a foothold … Read more

EGFR 20ins Mutation Lung Cancer: ADC and Immunotherapy Redefining ‘Hard-to-Treat’

EGFR 20ins Mutation Lung Cancer: ADC and Immunotherapy Redefining 'Hard-to-Treat'

Click the arrow to follow us with the “blue text”! 1. 20ins Mutation: The ‘Hard-to-Treat Code’ of the EGFR Family The EGFR exon 20 insertion (20ins) mutation accounts for 4%-12% of NSCLC. Due to the unique mutation site, traditional EGFR-TKIs (such as gefitinib and osimertinib) struggle to bind effectively, leading to its classification as a … Read more

Literature Sharing | J AM CHEM SOC | Probiotic-Drug Conjugates Achieve Site-Specific Probiotic Colonization and On-Demand Drug Release to Combat Ulcerative Colitis and Its Complications

1. Research Background Ulcerative colitis (UC) is a chronic intestinal disease that severely affects the quality of life of patients and significantly increases the risk of colorectal cancer (CAC) associated with colitis, posing a major threat to patient survival. Current treatment strategies for UC are limited by single therapeutic mechanisms, uncontrolled drug release, and non-specific … Read more

ALK-ADC Drug: Validation of Efficacy of ALK-Targeted Humanized Antibody-Drug Conjugate with Pyrrolobenzodiazepine Payload in ALK-Expressing Cancers

On August 15, 2025, the journal Nature Communications published an article titled “A humanized anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK)-directed antibody-drug conjugate with pyrrolobenzodiazepine payload demonstrates efficacy in ALK-expressing cancers” (靶向间变性淋巴瘤激酶(ALK)的人源化抗体药物偶联物搭载吡咯并苯二氮䓬有效载荷在ALK表达癌症中的疗效验证).This study developed a novel ALK-targeted antibody-drug conjugate CDX0239-PBD, which demonstrates significant anti-tumor activity and survival benefits in various ALK-expressing pediatric and adult tumor models (including neuroblastoma, … Read more

JTO Authority Review: Efficacy and Safety of Neoadjuvant Targeted Therapy for Resectable NSCLC

JTO Authority Review: Efficacy and Safety of Neoadjuvant Targeted Therapy for Resectable NSCLC

The standard treatment (SoC) for surgically resectable early-stage (I-IIIB) NSCLC patients is surgery combined with (new) adjuvant systemic therapy for patients with stage II to IIIB and certain stage IB patients, with chemotherapy and radiotherapy used in select cases (for stage III disease with mediastinal lymph node metastasis). Despite these treatments, metastatic recurrence is common … Read more
