Overview

PTM-001-ADC is a preclinical-stage antibody-drug conjugate (ADC) being developed by PTM Therapeutics for the treatment of metastatic colon cancer and other solid tumors. The drug consists of a humanized monoclonal antibody (PTM-001) that targets a tumor-specific post-translational modification (PTM), specifically a glycan epitope on **CD44 variant 6 (CD44v6)**, which is highly expressed in colon adenocarcinoma and its metastatic satellites. The antibody is conjugated to the microtubule-disrupting cytotoxic agent **DM1 (mertansine)** via a non-cleavable **SMCC linker**. PTM-001-ADC has demonstrated potent cytotoxicity in colon cancer cell lines (e.g., Colo-205) and efficacy in xenograft models, showing superior tumor shrinkage compared to standard chemotherapy like irinotecan. The program is currently in preclinical development, with the company seeking partners for linker-toxin optimization.
