The instant invention provides compositions comprising a prodrug, the
prodrug comprising a therapeutically active drug; and a peptide selected
from the group consisting of the sequences: Ser-Ser-Lys-Tyr-Gln (SEQ ID
NO:1);Gly-Lys-Ser-Gln-Tyr-Gln (SEQ ID NO:2); and Gly-Ser-Ala-Lys-Tyr-Gln
(SEQ ID NO:3) wherein the peptide is linked to the therapeutically active
drug to inhibit the therapeutic activity of the drug, and wherein the
therapeutically active drug is cleaved from the peptide upon proteolysis
by an enzyme having a proteolytic activity of prostate specific antigen
(PSA). The invention further provides methods of making and using the
claimed compositions.
