Three trends in the antibody-drug conjugate (ADC) market 

Drug Discovery World

Antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) are biopharmaceutical products in which a monoclonal antibody (mAB) is linked to a small molecule drug with a stable linker 1. According to NCBI, most of the ADCs developed so far are for use in the treatment of cancer, but there is plenty of potential for using ADCs to treat other diseases 1.
