Overview

Lifastuzumab vedotin is an experimental antibody-drug conjugate (ADC) developed for the treatment of cancer. It consists of a humanized monoclonal antibody targeting SLC34A2 (also known as sodium-dependent phosphate transport protein 2B or NaPi2b), which is highly expressed in certain tumors such as ovarian and lung cancers. The antibody is conjugated via a cleavable maleimidocaproyl-valyl-citrullinyl-p-aminobenzyloxycarbonyl (mc-val-cit-PABC) linker to the cytotoxic payload monomethyl auristatin E (MMAE), a potent inhibitor of tubulin polymerization that disrupts mitosis and induces apoptosis in targeted cells. Lifastuzumab vedotin was primarily investigated for platinum-resistant ovarian cancer and non-small cell lung cancer but development was discontinued after phase II trials failed to meet primary endpoints[4][5][6].
