The patent application (Publication Number: US20240024491A1) describes a compound designed for targeted drug delivery. The compound consists of a polymeric carbohydrate backbone, mannose-binding C-type lectin receptor targeting moieties, and a therapeutic agent with reactive hydroxyl groups linked via a degradable linker. The compound can include various components such as mannosyl coupling reagents, glycans, and peptides to target specific receptors. Additionally, the therapeutic agent can be a corticosteroid, chemotherapeutic agent, or toll-like receptor agonist/antagonist, among others. The compound can be used in pharmaceutical compositions with a carrier for effective delivery.

Furthermore, the patent application details methods for making and using the compound. The synthesis involves attaching leashes to the carbohydrate backbone, forming a therapeutic-linker compound, and conjugating it to the backbone. The compound can be administered to repolarize tumor-associated macrophages, reduce inflammation mediated by macrophages, or treat various diseases like cancer, autoimmune disorders, and inflammatory conditions. The therapeutic agent's release can be triggered by a reducing agent, making it suitable for conditions like Non-Alcoholic Steatohepatitis (NASH), acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), sepsis, and viral infections. The compound can be used alone or in combination with other therapies such as chemotherapy, radiation therapy, or immunotherapy for enhanced treatment outcomes.
