Patent abstract
Disclosed are prodrugs of therapeutic or imaging agents, which prodrugs are selectively cleaved by fibroblast activating protein (FAP) to release the agents. Upon cleavage by FAP of the FAP substrate, the prodrug releases the agent in its active form or in a form that is readily metabolized to its active form. Pharmaceutical compositions comprising the prodrugs, as well as methods of using the prodrugs to treat a disorder characterized by FAP upregulation are also disclosed.
