Bioanalysis and toxicology challenges with ADC: how are they different and new?
Antibody Drug Conjugates (ADC) are new compounds compared to others, but they also face challenges in the immunogenicity assays requirements and increasing bioanalysis assay complexity. This class of compounds has challenges in toxicology preclinical testing that need to be fully addressed to avoid drug development delays in the clinic. In this webinar our experts will present case studies to address many of these challenges.
What will you learn?
- Anti-drug antibody assay development and validation challenges and solutions
- Stability or lack of stability for ADC, plus the true issues and possible resolution
- ADC preclinical study design and challenges to avoid failure due to toxicological issues
Who should attend?
- Professionals developing ADC therapeutics
- Bioanalytical chemists
- Professionals using LC-MS, ELISA or IC MS for ADC bioanalysis
- Toxicologists who work with ADC
- Preclinical study directors
