TechTalk: Bioanalytical strategy for parallel total and conjugated antibody quantification for novel ADCs

Friday, September 18 at 15:30 BST | 16:30 CEST | 10:30 EDT | 07:30 PDT

As antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) continue to advance in oncology, bioanalytical teams need efficient strategies for measuring multiple pharmacokinetic analytes, including total antibody (tAb) and conjugated antibody (cAb).

In this TechTalk, Dr. Valeria Castagna from Merck will share how parallel testing and validation of tAb and cAb assays on Gyrolab® helped streamline ADC bioanalysis, reducing validation time and sample volume requirements while maintaining data quality.

Who should attend?

This TechTalk is perfect for:
  • Bioanalytical scientists and laboratory leads (CROs and pharma)
  • Heads of bioanalysis/PK/DMPK
  • CRO operational and scientific directors
  • Assay development and Method transfer teams
  • Project managers responsible for bioanalytical timelines

What will this webinar cover?

  • How a large pharmaceutical company adopts a parallel validation strategy for simultaneous tAb and cAb method validation on Gyrolab® – including the single MRD preparation approach, plate-splitting workflow, and how multi-run instrument configurations (Gyrolab xPand or multiple xPlore units) support same-day execution.
  • How the company achieved efficiency gains from parallel vs. sequential validation – validation time reduced by approximately half, matrix and reagent consumption halved, and fewer operators required over a shorter engagement period.
  • Insight into total antibody (tAb) and conjugated antibody (cAb) as separate bioanalytical analytes in ADC programmes – understand what each measures, why both are required, and how they relate to DAR distribution and in vivo payload stability.
