Annual Reports in Medicinal Chemistry

New Approaches in Conjugate Drug Design: Part 1, published as Volume 67 of the serial Annual Reports in Medicinal Chemistry, provides a comprehensive overview of current strategies in the design and application of drug conjugates. Chapters cover small molecule drug conjugates, antibody-to-small molecule carrier approaches, antibiotic-derived and terpene-derived antimicrobial conjugates, aptamer-RNA conjugates, and phenolic and metal natural product conjugates. Applications span anticancer, antiviral, antifungal, and theranostic therapies, including photoactivatable therapy and emerging approaches in quantum oncology. The volume serves as a reference on design principles, therapeutic applications, and clinical progress in conjugate-based drug discovery.
