ADCs outside Oncology? Fibrosis, a condition characterized by excessive scarring tissue, is a significant unmet medical need. While traditional treatments often fall short, a new class of therapeutics, antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs), is showing immense promise. ADCs: A Targeted Approach ADCs combine the specificity of monoclonal antibodies with the potency of cytotoxic payloads. This unique approach allows targeted delivery of potent drugs directly to fibrotic tissues, minimizing off-target toxicity. A Case in Point: Arda Therapeutics Arda, a new ADC company focused on fibrosis, recently secured $43 million in Series A funding from renowned investors like a16z and Eli Lilly. This significant investment underscores the growing confidence in the potential of ADCs to revolutionize fibrosis treatment. "The oncology toolbox works" You are killing the cells and not just disturbing the environment - Vineeta Agarwala, MD PhD Are they alone? Nop, Candid Therapeutics and Lifordi Immunotherapeutics, Inc. are some of the companies on the landscape. Why ADCs are Poised to Succeed: - Targeted Delivery: ADCs can be engineered to bind to fibrosis-related proteins, ensuring that the cytotoxic payload is delivered precisely where needed. - Enhanced Efficacy: By concentrating the cytotoxic payload at the disease site, ADCs can achieve greater efficacy than traditional systemic therapies. - Potential for Disease Modification: ADCs may be able to interfere with the fibrotic process itself, potentially leading to disease modification rather than just symptom relief. What do you think about the oncology toolbox being used in other diseases? #investment #investor #startup #company #market #oncology #fibrosis #CEO #VC #ADC #biotechnology #innovation

After the approval of Astella’s CLDN18.2-targeted mAb, the gastric cancer clinical practice paradigm may face major changes. How would the field react to this approval and other recent change in this disease? Our editor Jiamin Zhuo has more. 2. A recent STAT News article on the rise of CAR-T for autoimmunity ends with an image where CAR-T is being taken over by T-cell engager. A recent interview with Candid Therapeutics’ Ken Song provides intriguing arguments that not only TCE might be more promising but CD20 and BCMA might be just as good as CD19 for B-cell depletion for autoimmunity. Our editor Leon Tang has more. Other global biotech news includes 1) Eli Lilly’s another $200M investment to expand its manufacturing facility in China; 2) Lundbeck’s acquisition of Longboard Pharma for $2.6Bn for the epilepsy drug bexicaserin; and 3) BioNTech’s another partial clinical hold by the FDA on their CTLA-4 asset that was in-licensed from OncoC4 in 2023.
