Nicotinamide Phosphoribosyltransferase Inhibitor as a Novel Payload for Antibody-Drug Conjugates.

ABSTRACT: Antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) are a novel modality that allows targeted delivery of potent therapeutic agents to the desired site. Herein we report our discovery of NAMPT inhibitors as a novel nonantimitotic payload for ADCs. The resulting anti-c-Kit conjugates (ADC-3 and ADC-4) demonstrated in vivo efficacy in the c-Kit positive gastrointestinal stromal tumor GIST-T1 xenograft model in a target-dependent manner.
