Linkers & Payloads

Linkers & Payloads

  • The shifting balance of innovation to identify the next leap is more likely from linker chemistry or payload diversity?
  • Mapping where linker and payload decisions are genuinely coupled versus independent
  • Beyond the cytotoxic paradigm: what immune-modulating and degrader payloads mean for the whole conjugate
  • Designing the linker–payload unit for a target product profile rather than optimizing components in isolation
  • Lessons from clinical linker/payload failures and the design rules they have taught the field
  • The CMC and developability burden of increasingly complex linker–payload chemistries
  • The competitive and IP landscape around proprietary linker and payload technologies
