Bifunctional Aptamer

Development of first-in-class
drugs using Chimeric
aptamers combined with
various drug modalities

We develop first-in-class drugs using chimeric aptamers which are generated by integrating drugs or other functional modules within aptamer molecules which have high target selectivity and are easily chemically modified.

PIPELINE

AST-201

Aptamer-Drug Conjugate(ApDC)
Incorporating Anti-cancer Drug

Cancer-specific drug delivery via GPC3-specific aptamer

Overcoming drug resistance mechanisms

BBB Shuttle

Brain delivery via Blood-Brain Barrier Penetrating Aptamer

High yield BBB penetration by aptamer targeting Transferrin receptor 1

Applicable to various therapeutic modalities (antibodies, oligonucleotides, small molecule chemicals)

Immuno oncology

Immuno-oncology Therapeutics Based on Aptamer Targeting Regulatory T Cell (Treg)

CD25-specific aptamer-driven Treg growth inhibition

Target-specific delivery by integrating RNAi or growth inhibitory drugs with CD25 aptamer

AST-101

Allosteric Modulator Aptamer
Targeting Insulin Receptor

Binding to allostery site (other than insulin binding sites)

Activation of selective functions for glucose uptake

Maximizing blood glucose level control and Minimizing insulin-related side effects (weight gain, hypoglycemia, etc)

AptoDetect™-Lung

Lung cancer diagnostic kit that obtained the manufacturing license for medical device (Class III) from the Ministry of Food and Drug Safety in Korea

AptoDetect™-Lung is the world's first approved aptamer-based diagnostic kit that provides information on lung cancer risk. The kit quantifies a total of seven proteins, including four tumor growth-related proteins (EGFR1, MMP7, CA6, and KIT) and three immune-related proteins (CRP, C9, and SERPINA3) in a small amount of blood. The risk scores is calculated through its own algorithms.
