Abstract
Provided are novel compounds containing a polymeric carbohydrate backbone, one or more mannose-binding C-type lectin receptor targeting moieties, and a nitrogenous bisphosphonate compound coupled to the backbone via a thiol-maleimide conjugation, in addition to pharmaceutical compositions, methods of synthesizing, and methods of use. The thiol-maleimide conjugation of a bisphosphonate to a polymeric carbohydrate backbone provides for methods of using the compounds and compositions thereof for releasing the therapeutic payload when internalized into a mannose-binding C-type lectin receptor-expressing cell, such as tumor associated macrophages (TAMs) for the treatment of various diseases, including, cancer, autoimmune diseases, and inflammatory disorders.
