Anti-RNF43 Antibody-drug Conjugate SC-006

**Semantic type:** Pharmacologic Substance

**Definition:** An antibody-drug conjugate (ADC) composed of a monoclonal antibody directed against the tumor-associated antigen (TAA) ring finger protein 43 (RNF43), linked to a DNA crosslinking pyrrolobenzodiazepine (PBD) dimer, with potential antineoplastic activity. Upon intravenous administration, the monoclonal antibody moiety of anti-RNF43 ADC SC-006 targets and binds to RNF43 expressed on tumor cells. Upon binding and internalization, the cytotoxic PBD moiety is released and forms highly cytotoxic DNA interstrand cross-links, thereby blocking cell division and killing RNF43-expressing cancer cells. RNF43, a single-span transmembrane E3 ubiquitin ligase, is overexpressed by certain tumor cell types and a negative regulator of the Wnt signaling pathway.
