Small Molecule Screening and Synthesis Service
The small molecule, which is widely used in cancer therapy, has been recently introduced into RDC (Radionuclide Drug Conjugate) development. The combination of molecular targeted therapy with radiotherapy is a creative concept to improve cancer therapy efficacy and reduce damage to healthy cells in patients.
Rdcthera offers a professional small molecule design and synthesis service with high quality for RDC development projects.
The Mechanism of Small Molecules Targeting Process
Cancer is one of the leading reasons of death worldwide. Targeted small molecules (< 900 Da) are a novel concept in cancer treatment, which can act on cell growth factors, receptors, or signal transduction pathways. Through this specific identification, they are capable to restrict the growth, progression, and metastasis process of types of cancer cells, including breast, leukemia, colorectal, lung, and ovarian cancers. Additionally, small molecules can be used to activate a cell-cycle checkpoint, trigger apoptosis, and coordinate DNA repair, which plays a key role in cancer cell survival.
Discovered Small Molecule Applied in RDC
Even though a myriad of small molecules was approved to be applied in cancer treatment, including small molecule inhibitors and activators, acting on different pathways, the application of small molecules in RDC is limited. Rdcthera is capable to design kinds of small molecules according to your demand to promote the RDC research process.
The most widely used small molecules in RDC are targeting PSMA (Prostate Specific Membrane Antigen), working as PSMA-targeting small molecule inhibitors, which can be classified into three groups.
- Urea-Based PSMA-Targeting Small Molecule Inhibitors
- Phosphorus-Based PSMA-Targeting Small Molecule Inhibitors
- Thiol-Based PSMA-Targeting Small Molecule Inhibitors
Nowadays, PSMA-617 and PSMA-I&T, both having the same Glu-urea-Lys–PSMA binding motif, are most widely used in pre-clinical research.
