The layout of bispecific antibodies in the field of tumors has become mature, but in the field of autoimmune diseases, the layout of bispecific antibodies is relatively small. The first batch of enlightened MNCs have begun to take action. Recently, autoimmune bispecific antibody therapy has increasingly become the focus of new drug research and development. Many pharmaceutical giants such as Johnson & Johnson, Sanofi, and Roche have chosen to deploy in the field of autoimmune bispecific antibodies, with a total of more than US$8.15 billion (approximately RMB 59.1 billion) in mergers and acquisitions and related drug transactions. The track of autoimmune bispecific antibody therapy has changed. Sanofi, Merck, and Roche: Grabbing the beachhead of CD3 bispecific antibodiesCD3 is closely related to the activation of T cells. By combining CD3 and tumor-associated antigens, it can guide and activate T cells to approach and kill tumor cells. At present, most of the ...

More than 300 years ago, British architect and scientist Sir Christopher Wren became interested in drug delivery, hoping to find a way to directly inject drugs or liquids into the human body. He made a simple syringe using tools such as goose feathers and metal tubes, and for the first time attempted to inject drug solution into a dog’s veins through injection. Since then, “injection” has gradually become a widely used method of drug delivery. Today, many large molecule biologics, such as recombinant insulin, monoclonal antibodies, and vaccines, are mainly injected into the human body to exert their therapeutic effects. However, the pain and trouble caused by injection are self-evident, especially when treating chronic diseases such as diabetes or cancer that require frequent medication, injection has brought considerable burden to patients’ daily life. So, in recent years, many scientists have been actively seeking innovative methods for drug delivery systems: without ...

On November 20, local time, Jazz Pharmaceuticals announced that the U.S. FDA has accelerated the approval of its HER2-targeted bispecific antibody Zanidatamab (Ziihera), developed in collaboration with Zymeworks, for marketing for the treatment of patients with previously treated, unresectable, locally advanced or metastatic HER2-positive biliary tract cancer. The press release pointed out that this is the first and only HER2 bispecific antibody approved by the FDA for HER2+ biliary tract cancer. Zanidatamab (ZW25) is a bispecific antibody based on the Zymeworks Azymetric platform that can simultaneously bind to two non-overlapping HER2 epitopes, i.e., biparatopic binding. This unique design can form multiple mechanisms of action, including dual blocking of HER2 signals, enhanced binding and removal of HER2 proteins on the cell surface, and strong antibody effector functions to enhance anti-tumor activity in patients. Previously, Zenidatumomab has been granted breakthrough therapy designation, fast track qualification, priority review qualification, orphan drug qualification, etc. ...
