The paper presents a unified deep learning framework called ADCNet to design potential Antibody-Drug Conjugates (ADCs). The ADCNet combines protein and small-molecule representation language models, ESM-2 and FG-BERT respectively, to predict the activity of ADCs based on their sequences, linker and payload SMILES strings, and drug-antibody ratio (DAR) values. The framework is evaluated using a carefully designed dataset, outperforming baseline machine learning models across various metrics. The paper also includes cross-validation, ablation experiments, and external testing results to demonstrate the stability and robustness of the ADCNet architecture.
Low GrooveSquid.com (original content) Low Difficulty Summary
The paper develops a new way to design Antibody-Drug Conjugates (ADCs) that can target cancer cells more effectively. They create a special computer program called ADCNet that uses language models to predict how well an ADC will work based on its structure and properties. The program is tested using a specific dataset and performs better than other methods in predicting the activity of ADCs. This innovation has the potential to improve cancer treatment.
