Our Pipeline

A robust pipeline of ADCs intended for the treatment of hematological cancers and solid tumors

ADC Therapeutics is advancing a portfolio of investigational ADCs including those which utilize our highly potent pyrrolobenzodiazepine (“PBD”) technology, a differentiated exatecan-based payload with a novel hydrophilic linker and a next generation ADC toolbox.

Pre-clinical candidates targeting Claudin-6, NaPi2b, PSMA and ASCT2 are based on an innovative proprietary approach which utilizes exatecan with a novel hydrophilic linker as a highly potent and differentiated payload.

By leveraging decade-long expertise in the ADC field with multiple INDs and a proven track record of success, ADC Therapeutics continues building this toolbox with new antibody formats, linkers and toxins while advancing a range of payloads, linkers and conjugation technologies against multiple targets to develop differentiated next-generation assets.

The agents represented in this pipeline chart are investigational. Efficacy and safety have not yet been established.

Loncastuximab tesirine-lpyl

Loncastuximab tesirine-lpyl is an ADC composed of a humanized monoclonal antibody that binds to human CD19 and is conjugated through a linker to a PBD–dimer toxin. Once bound to a CD19-expressing cell, loncastuximab tesirine-lpyl is internalized into the cell, where enzymes release the PBD-based warhead. The warhead is designed to bind irreversibly to DNA to create highly potent interstrand cross-links that block DNA strand separation, thus disrupting essential DNA metabolic processes such as replication. This ultimately results in cell death.

ADCT-602 targeting CD22

ADCT-602 is an ADC composed of a monoclonal antibody that binds to CD22 conjugated to a PBD–dimer toxin. Once bound to a CD22-expressing cell, ADCT-602 is internalized into the cell where enzymes release the PBD-based warhead. CD22 is an attractive and clinically validated ADC target. CD22 is highly expressed on most malignant B-cells, including expression in more than 90% of patients with B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL).

ADCT-602 is being evaluated in a phase I/II clinical trial in patients with relapsed or refractory B-cell ALL (NCT03698552). The trial is being led by The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center.
