In this issue, we examine how linker chemistry has become a central lever for defining the therapeutic window. Explore why the whole ADC molecule has to be designed as one, and chart a bioconjugate landscape where developers are increasingly differentiating on construct rather than target.
"Parts of an ADC cannot be designed in isolation; the whole molecule has to be considered."– Michael Lukesch, Founder and CEO, Valanx
"The linker cannot be optimized independently of the payload or the antibody, and it cannot be divorced from the target biology."– Brian A Mendelsohn, Independent Industry Consultant and ADC Veteran
