Optimising analytical strategies for ADC development

8 May 2025 | By

Antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) are transforming cancer therapy by enabling targeted drug delivery with minimised side effects, but their complex structure presents unique challenges in bioanalysis. This article explores cutting-edge strategies for optimising ADC evaluation, from quantifying drug-to-antibody ratios (DAR) to overcoming hurdles like payload interference and stability.
