Demonstrating cytotoxicity against colon cancer cells, this compound shows extensive antitumor effectiveness across various CanAg-positive human tumor xenografts [1] [2].

Cantuzumab ravtansine (IMGN242; huC242-DM4), an antibody-drug conjugate (ADC), comprises the humanized monoclonal antibody huC242 covalently bonded through a disulfide linkage to the cytotoxic agent DM4 (DM4), demonstrating extensive antitumor effectiveness across various CanAg-positive human tumor xenografts [1] [2].

Zilovertamab vedotin is a novel antibody-drug conjugate (ADC) constructed by conjugating the humanized monoclonal antibody zilovertamab with the anti-microtubule cytotoxic drug monomethyl vedotin. It binds to ROR1 on the surface of tumor cells, promotes rapid internalization and trafficking of the complex to lysosomes, followed by ADC cleavage and release of monomethyl vedotin, thereby inducing tumor cell apoptosis. It can be used in cancer-related research.

Polatuzumab vedotin, an antibody-drug conjugate, selectively targets CD79b with a humanized anti-CD79b IgG1 monoclonal antibody bound to monomethyl auristatin E (MMAE), a robust microtubule inhibitor. This compound shows promise for research into Large B-cell lymphomas (LBCL) [1].

Telisotuzumab vedotin (ABBV-399) is an ADC compound targeting c-Met with antitumor activity, used for research in recurrent squamous cell lung cancer.

Tisotumab vedotin is an antibody-drug conjugate (ADC) targeting tissue factor (TF), consisting of the fully human monoclonal antibody (TF-011) conjugated with monomethyl auristatin E (MMAE). It exhibits significant antitumor activity and is suitable for research on the treatment of advanced or metastatic solid tumors.
