11:00 am Morning Break & Networking

Synopsis

This session is an opportunity to connect with peers working within the ADC Toxicity world, to have important conversations to overcome shared challenges, and plot paths to see future successes within the field

Improving Prediction of Toxicities through a Reverse Translational Approach

12:00 pm Panel – Bench to Bedside & Back – Assessing the Benefits of a Reverse Translational Approach When Minimizing ADC Toxicities

Synopsis

  • Viewing the ways toxicities present themselves clinically to consider what can be done preclinically to mitigate these effects
  • Transferring from human studies to animal studies to obtain a deeper understanding of how different ADCs are distributed across healthy tissues
  • Understanding potential biomarkers for predicting toxicities which present in humans and being able to connect this back to the pre-clinical stage
  • Navigating the concept of translating back and mechanistically blocking the toxicity in vitro

12:45 pm Lunch & Networking
