Compounds containing organometalic stabilized gold (iii) macrocycles
and cyclometalated gold variations. Additional synthetic efforts have led to the generation of [C A NJ- cyclometalated gold(m) compounds, which present strong sigma-donation of electrons to stabilize the gold center. Furthermore, the repertoire of gold-based agents was expanded with the synthesis of …

In one embodiment, provided herein is a method for reducing the level of cirrhosis. In one embodiment, cirrhosis is characterized pathologically by loss of the normal microscopic lobular architecture, with fibrosis and nodular regeneration. Methods for measuring the extent of cirrhosis are well …
Single domain antibodies binding to albumin
Albumin is then released back into the bloodstream upon exocytosis and exposure to neutral blood pH. Conjugation or tight binding to albumin allows a drug to ‘piggyback’ this serum albumin endocytic recycling pathway, thereby extending half-life. Accordingly, there remains a need for safe and …
Protease-activated polypeptides
WO 2018/184964 A1). Given the clinical success and unprecedented efficacy of PD-1/PD-L1 checkpoint inhibitors, there remains a major medical need to further improve response rates and duration in patients with pre-existing T cell immunity. Recent reports demonstrate that PD-1 antibodies target two …
