In antibody directed enzyme prodrug therapy (ADEPT) an antibody bound enzyme is targeted to tumor cells. This allows for selective activation of a nontoxic prodrug to a cytotoxic agent at the tumor site for cancer therapy. Site-selective prodrug activation results in reduced side effects in remote tissue. This article reviews ADEPT with emphasis on the chemical viewpoint and recent developments.
在抗体导向酶前药疗法(ADEPT)中,一种与抗体结合的酶被靶向输送到肿瘤细胞。这使得一种无毒前药能够在肿瘤部位选择性地激活为细胞毒性药物,用于癌症治疗。前药的位点选择性激活可减少远处组织的副作用。本文从化学角度并结合近期进展对抗体导向酶前药疗法进行综述。
