Therapeutic enzymes are currently used in the treatment of several diseases. In most cases, the benefits are limited due to poor in vivo stability, immunogenicity, and drug-induced inactivating antibodies. A partial solution to the problem is obtained by masking the therapeutic protein by chemical modifications. Unfortunately, this is not a satisfactory solution because frequent adverse events, including anaphylaxis, can arise.

Abstract

Therapeutic enzymes are currently used in the treatment of several diseases. In most cases, the benefits are limited due to poor in vivo stability, immunogenicity, and drug-induced inactivating antibodies. A partial solution to the problem is obtained by masking the therapeutic protein by chemical modifications. Unfortunately, this is not a satisfactory solution because frequent adverse events, including anaphylaxis, can arise.
