Mechanism of action
- Tumor-associated calcium signal transducer 2BINDING AGENT
TACSTD2 binding agent
TACSTD2 inhibitor
- DNA topoisomerase IINHIBITOR
DNA topoisomerase I inhibitor
Binds TROP-2 on cancer cells and is internalised. Hydrolysis of the linker releases SN-38, a topoisomerase I inhibitor, that causes DNA damage and cell death.
