A binding-to-release strategy for targeted anticancer drug delivery - Nature

Covers a chemistry-driven binding-to-release strategy that enables targeted payload release from cell-surface receptors without cellular internalization, expanding conjugate targets.

Key Takeaways
  • For poorly internalizing targets, drug conjugates dissociate and clear rapidly, limiting efficacy
  • This platform demonstrated high specificity from in vitro to clinical specimens
  • FAP-BTR-SMDC achieved 5.9-fold higher monomethyl auristatin E exposure (AUC 0–120 h )
