One-stop ADC Development Service

Monoclonal antibody-based immunotherapies against cancer and other infectious diseases are highly advantageous comparing to conventional therapeutic approaches due to their high specificity and affinity towards well-defined targets. Antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) inherit such superiorities and more remarkably, expand the therapeutic window of the conjugated drugs (payloads), which are usually highly toxic and diverse in their biochemical nature.

ADC mode of action. ADC molecules travel to the tumor site via systematic circulation, bind to tumor surface antigens, and enter the tumor cells via receptor mediated endocytosis (internalization). The payload is released in the cytosol or lysosome to eliminate the cancer cell by disrupting important cellular pathways (microtubule assembly, DNA transcription, mRNA processing…).

The payload is released in the cytosol or lysosome to eliminate the cancer cell by disrupting important cellular pathways (microtubule assembly, DNA transcription, mRNA processing…).

Three major components define an ADC—the monoclonal antibody, a cytotoxic payload, and a molecular linker that covalently bridges the other two components. A successful ADC should be chemically and physiologically stable in blood stream, exert similar antigen binding pattern compared with the unconjugated antibody, and exhibit desired payload toxicological effects once internalized. As a leader in the field of antibody-drug conjugate research and development, Creative Biolabs offers a comprehensive one-stop-shop ADC development services to help create highly customized ADCs. Like travelling to a destination on a highway, our ADC development services extends from the starting point—antibody identification, to the final destination—creation and evaluation of the ADC, every step of the way.

Designing of an ADC is an elaborate process that involves careful planning, meticulous execution, and intensive trouble-shooting. An effective combination of the most suitable components will greatly increase the chance for a successful ADC. With this concept in mind, Creative Biolabs has perfected our ADC development services, and we divide our services into six independent yet interconnected modules, just like the relationship between each component in an ADC.

At the starting point of an ADC development project, we offer antibody screening services including the consultation in antigen selection, antigen-specific antibody screening, internalizing antibody selection, as well as proof-of-concept feasibility validation using “Anti-Ab ADCs”. A suitable payload drug will be selected and coupled with a linker with desired releasing mechanism in “DrugLnk” to assemble the “chemical warhead” for an ADC, which is subsequently conjugated with the desired antibody using Antibody Design and Conjugation services. Certain modification or engineering of the selected antibody is also carried out in this service module.

After ADC assembly, its biochemical characteristics (purity, stability, drug-to-antibody ratio…) and in vitro efficacy is adequately analyzed in ADC in vitro Analysis while the ADC’s pre-clinical pharmacological parameters will be assayed in ADC in vivo Analysis before clinical evaluation and applications. Lastly, Creative Biolabs is also an expert in the conjugation of various molecular probes to antibodies to form Antibody-based Probes and we offer this service to facilitate the requirements for the exponentially developing fields such as high-resolution imagery and fast, accurate diagnostics.

With Ph.D. level scientists and over a decade of experience in recombinant antibody production, antibody engineering, synthetic chemistry, and bio-conjugation, Creative Biolabs is dedicated to serve the unique needs of our clients in ADC development projects by providing customized services that are tailored to meet your R&D timeline and budget.
