The pre|CISION\u2122 platform harnesses this tumour specific protease to activate pre|CISION\u2122 peptide drug conjugates and pre|CISION\u2122 antibody\/Affimer\u00ae drug conjugates in the tumour microenvironment, reducing systemic exposure and toxicity, allowing dosing to be optimised to deliver the best outcomes for patients.<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">The lead pre|CISION\u2122 programme AVA6000, a peptide drug conjugate form of doxorubicin, is in Phase 1 studies. It has shown an improvement in safety and tolerability in clinical trials to date compared with standard doxorubicin and preliminary signs of clinical activity in multiple patients.<\/p>\n<p
