Better targeted drug therapy

Antibody drug conjugates (ADCs) currently have substantial inhibitions. Because they can have capricious e ects and may be unstable, losing their payloads and engendering toxicity. So we set out to design more stable and prognosticable ADCs by utilizing computer simulations to soothsay and plan out how the drug payload and antibody can stay linked to each other. We designed a LEGO like linker that just clicks a drug payload to any antibody we optateat betokens we can distribute a drug specically to any tissue that expresses the target of the antibody. Additionally we used computational docking molecular simulations to engender archetype that could link an antibody and drug payload and mapped the binding sites to determine how ligand drug dyads would bind to di¬erent antibodies. We synthesized the sundry components and showed that when they were incubated together, they could self-assemble into ADCs, like magnets that and one another. Inspired by this optical discernment, we designated this approach MAGNET ADCs, which stands for multivalent and a nity-guided antibody potentiation technology
