Masked Antibodies & Cytokines as Prodrugs - October 2021 Industry Landscape: Stakeholders, Technologies, Pipelines, Business and Financing
DUBLIN, Oct. 14, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- The "Masked Antibodies & Cytokines as Prodrugs: A Landscape Analysis of Stakeholders, Technologies, Pipelines, Business and Financing from An Industry Perspective" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.
![Research and Markets Logo Research and Markets Logo](http://mma.prnewswire.com/media/539438/Research_and_Markets_Logo.jpg)
This report provides you with a landscape description and analysis of prodrug antibodies and cytokines employing conventional and novel masking technology platforms from an industry perspective.
The prodrug concept of masking technologies is an elegant approach to address the selectivity limitations of conventional therapeutic antibodies and cytokines.
The report brings you up-to-date with information about and analysis of:
- Stakeholders in the field: technology and major pharmaceutical companies and investors;
- Masking technologies: conventional (kinetically controlled); pH-dependent and protease cleavage in the tumor microenvironment
- Targets of masked antibodies and type of masked cytokine selected for development of masked biologics;
- Business strategy: pure-play (foundational or converted) masking technology company, diversified technology company, exit options, preferred antibody modality or type of cytokine, investment case;
- Financing situation of technology companies and key investors in the field;
- Partnering deals with financial terms;
- Major pharmaceutical companies: preferences for masking technologies, collaboration, and licensing agreements.
Market Summary
Therapeutic antibodies have become a clinically and commercially successful treatment modality with more than 100 antibodies approved for therapy and commercial sales of more than US$ 184 billion in the year 2020. However, systemic administration of monoclonal antibodies or cytokines may induce severe adverse events with mechanism-of-action effects, meaning off-tumor on-target toxicity in healthy tissue.
In order to increase the selectivity of antibodies and cytokines at the disease site, antibodies should ignore the target antigen and cytokines the receptor in normal healthy tissue and be preferentially active in the disease region. The use of antibody prodrugs is one new strategy for more specific tumor targeting of biological therapies.
