4th annual ADC Summit 2015 conference, London, UK.

SMi is delighted to announce that its 4th annual ADC Summit 2015 conference will take place on 18^th - 19^th May in London, UK.

Recent clinical successes have generated intense interest in antibody-drug conjugates and they are now an increasingly active area of biopharma research, with developers and manufacturers investing towards this revolutionary therapeutic. To develop ADCs that are more specific, more stable, and more effective; continued optimisation of the antibody, linker and payload of an ADC is critical.

This conference goes to the heart of the technological challenges and asks: What does it take to develop superior ADCs and gain the clinical edge? It will share, confer and debate how to create the next wave of ADCs with better efficacy, lower toxicity and improved potency for clinical success.
