Excerpt

Monoclonal antibody (mAB) therapy is a potential new treatment option that selectively targets tumours and produces a therapeutic effect via the delivery of radiation or other toxins directly to tumour cells, or by producing an intrinsic immune inflammatory response. The Lewisy antigen (Ley) is a difucosylated oligosaccharide expressed on the surface of up to 60% of breast cancer cells, whilst rarely expressed on normal tissues. The humanised murine antibody, hu35193 has been shown to have high specificity for Ley. …

Keynote webinar | Spotlight on antibody–drug conjugates in cancer

Antibody–drug conjugates (ADCs) are novel agents that have shown promise across multiple tumor types. Explore the current landscape of ADCs in breast and lung cancer with our experts, and gain insights into the mechanism of action, key clinical trials data, existing challenges, and future directions.
