A fusion protein consisting of the humanised Fab fragment of the anti CEA MAb BW 431 and the human ,B-glucuronidase was expressed in BHK cells. Functional testing revealed that the specificity and avidity of the humanised V region was similar to the original murine MAb BW 431. Furthermore, the enzymatic activity, pH sensitivity and stability of the human P-glucuronidase in the fusion protein wa...

A Fusion Protein of RGD4C and β-Lactamase Has a Favorable Targeting Effect in Its Use in Antibody Directed Enzyme Prodrug Therapy

Antibody directed enzyme prodrug therapy (ADEPT) utilizing β-lactamase is a promising treatment strategy to enhance the therapeutic effect and safety of cytotoxic agents. In this method, a conjugate (antibody-β-lactamase fusion protein) is employed to precisely activate nontoxic cephalosporin prodrugs at the tumor site. A major obstacle to the clinical translation of this method, however, is th...

Strategies for enzyme/prodrug cancer therapy.

The selective activation of prodrug(s) in tumor tissues by exogenous enzyme(s) for cancer therapy can be accomplished by several ways, including gene-directed enzyme prodrug therapy (GDEPT), virus-directed enzyme prodrug therapy (VDEPT), and antibody-directed enzyme prodrug therapy (ADEPT). The central part of enzyme/prodrug cancer therapy is to deliver drug-activating enzyme gene or functional...

Synthesis and preliminary cytotoxicity study of a cephalosporin-CC-1065 analogue prodrug

BACKGROUND: Antibody-directed enzyme prodrug therapy (ADEPT) is a promising new approach to deliver anticancer drugs selectively to tumor cells. In this approach, an enzyme is conjugated to a tumor-specific antibody. The antibody selectively localizes the enzyme to the tumor cell surface. Subsequent administration of a prodrug substrate of the enzyme leads to the enzyme-catalyzed release of the...

The term prodrug was first used by Albert [1]. Prodrug can be defined as an agent that is transformed after administration, either by metabolism or by spontaneous chemical breakdown, to form a pharmacologically active drug. The prodrug itself is inactive or less active and is converted to active agent in vivo. Targeted prodrug approach is one of the new trends in the treatment of cancer. A lot ...
