CL2A-SN-38 is a agent-linker conjugate composed of a potent a DNA Topoisomerase I inhibitor SN-38 and a linker CL2A to make antibody agent conjugate (ADC). CL2A-SN-38 provides significant and specific antitumor effects against a range of human solid tumor types. CL2A-SN-38 uses hydrolyzable linker to deliver active agents within tumor cells and in the tumor microenvironment, resulting in bystander effects.

    CL2A-SN-38 purchased from MedChemExpress. Usage Cited in: Pharmaceutics. 2025 Jul 25;17(8):967.  [Abstract]

    412a ADC with dual MMAF and SN38 payloads improved potency and efficacy over single-payload 412a ADCs. A panel of 8 cell lines consisting of gastric, pancreatic, small cell lung, and triple negative breast cancer cell lines was treated with a molar (M) dilution series of 412a-MMAF, 412a-SN38, or 412a-druxtecan (Dxd), 412a-MMAF+SN38 dual-payload ADC, and unconjugated 412a for 72 h. Cell viability at each concentration of ADC was determined using a luminescent readout of ATP levels in relative light units (RLU). Data were shown from two representative cancer cell lines, BxPC-3 and MKN45 cells. Curves were fitted using a nonlinear regression.

    CL2A-SN-38 purchased from MedChemExpress. Usage Cited in: Pharmaceutics. 2025 Jul 25;17(8):967.  [Abstract]

    Half-maximal inhibitory concentration (IC50) values were generated from cell viability curves to determine the potency of each test article. Each data point represented a different cell line. Groups without 8 data points had cell lines that were not responsive enough to the ADC to generate an IC50 value.

    In Vivo

    CL2A-SN-38 coupled to the anti-Trop-2 humanized antibody hRS7 (intraperitoneal injection, 0.2 or 0.4 mg/kg, twice weekly, 4 weeks) can both significantly inhibit tumor growth in mice with human colon (COLO 205) or pancreatic (Capan-1) tumour xenografts[2].

    In Vivo:

    Select the appropriate dissolution method based on your experimental animal and administration route.

    For the following dissolution methods, please ensure to first prepare a clear stock solution using an In Vitro approach and then sequentially add co-solvents:
    To ensure reliable experimental results, the clarified stock solution can be appropriately stored based on storage conditions. As for the working solution for in vivo experiments, it is recommended to prepare freshly and use it on the same day.
    The percentages shown for the solvents indicate their volumetric ratio in the final prepared solution. If precipitation or phase separation occurs during preparation, heat and/or sonication can be used to aid dissolution.

    • Protocol 1

    Help & FAQs
    • Do most proteins show cross-species activity?

      Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.
