TUMOR ACTIVATED PRODRUG COMPOUNDS AND METHODS OF MAKING AND USING THE SAME

摘要

The invention is directed to novel prodrug compounds, compositions comprising the prodrug compounds, methods of making the prodrug compounds and methods of using the prodrug compounds. The prodrug compounds comprise a biologically active entity linked to a masking moiety via a linking moiety. The prodrug compounds are selectively activated at or near target cells and display lower toxicity and possibly a longer in vivo or serum half-life than the corresponding naked biologically active entity.
