The development of antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) is in great demand in the oncology field. With the goal of maximizing the therapeutic index, the conjugation technology to produce ADCs has been shifted to a site-specific manner; however, it is still challenging to establish robust and scalable synthetic processes. We have developed a chemical conjugation platform termed AJICAP for site-specific ADC synthesis using IgG Fc-affinity peptides. Here, we report the preparation of site-specific ADCs based on first-generation AJICAP technology for use in good laboratory practice studies. Analysis of the final ADC product was conducted using validated systems and good manufacturing practice. This work may not only prompt further biological studies of AJICAP-ADC but also establish a strategy to provide well-documented manufacturing data to enable new drug application filings (e.g., investigational new drug applications) for site-specific ADCs.

Background: Due to its strong immunogenicity and tumor specificity, neoplastic antigen has emerged as an immunotherapy target with wide therapeutic prospect and clinical application value. Anti-programmed death-1 (PD-1) antibodies reinvigorate T cell-mediated antitumor immunity. So, we conducted single-arm trial to assess the safety and efficacy of PD-1 blockade(Camrelizumab)-activated neoantigen specific cellular therapy (aNASCT) on advanced relapsed non-small lung cancer(NSCLC)(ClinicalTrials.

The use of dissolving microneedle arrays (dMNA) for intradermal and transdermal drug delivery has been a growing trend in the field for the past decades. However, a lack of specific regulatory standards still hinders their clinical development and translation to market. It is also well-known that dMNA composition significantly impacts their performance, with each new formulation potentially presenting a challenge for developers, manufacturers and regulatory agencies.

Pemphigus vulgaris is a severe and often therapy-resistant bullous autoimmune disease. Standard therapy with steroids often administered together with another immunosuppressant does not respond in all patients or may not be a good therapeutic option in patients with severe underlying diseases. Intravenous immunoglobulins (IVIgs) represent a treatment alternative, often showing a rapid response which allows one to reduce concomitant immunosuppression.

Fermented foods, particularly fermented dairy products, offer significant health benefits but also present serious concerns. Probiotic bacteria, such as lactic acid bacteria (LAB), found in these foods have been strongly linked to the selection and dissemination of antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs). This study aims to examine the potential risks associated with fermented foods, despite their importance in human nutrition, by analyzing the entire production chain from raw material acquisition to storage.

Proteolysis targeting chimera (PROTAC) is emerging as a promising medicinal modality, which has aroused widespread interest among the field of pharmaceutical manufacturing in the recent years. ARV-471 is an orally active PROTAC estrogen receptor degrader against breast cancer, which leads to the ubiquitylation and subsequent degradation of estrogen receptors via the proteasome. In this study, we developed a highly sensitive liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry method (LLOQ = 0.
