In this webinar, you will learn:
How Single-Use helps to simplify ADC manufacturing
Safety and Integrity of the complete process
Flexibility and adaptability to changing needs
How to speed up the synthesis of high-potent payloads and improve the bioavailability of the ADC
Detailed description:
The development of an ADC is a long journey that can be speeded-up with the adoption of proper manufacturing tools and new linker-payload solutions. Single-Use equipment applied to the GMP manufacturing of ADC means operator safety, decreased risk of contamination, scalability, reproducibility, flexibility, small footprint, lower cost, and saved time through efficiency (easy setup and cleanup, no need for cleaning validation). The adoption of payload intermediates such as DolCoreTM and MayCoreTM can speed your development project up, while innovative linkers like ChetoSensarTM increase its chances of success. This webinar explains how these technologies improve the ADC production process end-to-end, ultimately enhancing patient safety.

According to the research report, global market is
projected to display a robust growth represented
by a Compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of
21.82% during 2017-2022, chiefly driven by large
number of ADC drugs in pipeline, rising number
of cancer patients and wider therapeutic window
offered by antibody drug conjugates.

What is ADC?
ADC: The Guided-missile Cancer
Treatment
ADC = Antibody Drug Conjugates
New class off drugs designed as a targeted
therapy for treatment of cancers
ADC’s are complex molecules composed of
a Mab linked to a cytotoxic agent
Elements of ADC

- Suitable quality of parent antibody
- Need to optimize additional process steps that are not present in conventional mAb manufacturing
e.g. the antibody-drug conjugation reaction and subsequent drug substance purification.
- Possible generation of mAb aggregates and drug/linker side reactions, which could lead to
subsequent purification and analytical challenges
- The manufacturing challenges with respect to process, safety and analytical requirements conferred
by conjugation of the biologic to the highly active cytotoxic component.
- Ensuring containment of the highly toxic drug compounds to protect operators and the wider
environment, which presents significant operational difficulties.

• Industry shift in ca. 2010 required
performance targets to become more
restrictive to adapt to industry trend
towards lower OEL materials, namely
ADC Linker/Payloads
• In 2018, additional clinical data for
several ADCs indicated that these
compounds had lowered OEL levels
(<10 ng/m3). This required tighter
