Abstract
Probodies are proteolytically activated antibodies engineered to remain inert until activated locally in diseased tissue. In principle, any therapeutic antibody can be converted into Probody™ form. In this perspective, we highlight the emerging therapeutic potential of the Probody approach in the form of conventional IgG-based Probodies as well as in the form of 'empowered Probody' formats such as Probody-drug conjugates.Keywords: EGFR; Jagged; antibody; antibody–drug conjugate; bispecific antibody; chimeric antigen receptor – T cells; probody; protease
