Abstract | Antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) are targeted therapeutic agents that treat cancers by selective delivery of highly potent cytotoxic drugs to tumor cells via cancer-specific antibodies. However, their clinical benefit is limited by off-target toxicity and narrow therapeutic windows. To overcome these limitations, we have applied reductive alkylation to develop a new type of ADC that has cytotoxic drugs conjugated to the N-terminal of an antibody through amine bonds introduced via reductive alkylation reactions (NTERM). To test whether the NTERM-conjugated ADCs can widen therapeutic windows, we synthesized three different ADCs by conjugating trastuzumab and monomethyl auristatin-F using three different methods, and compared their stability, efficacy, and toxicity. The NTERM-conjugated ADC was more stable |
