Face The Unknown: Key Bispecific Antibody Discoveries

The development of bispecific antibody (BsAb)-based therapies has significantly advanced the field of biopharmaceuticals, offering notable advantages over traditional monoclonal antibodies (mAbs). BsAbs exhibit broader applicability and enhanced therapeutic potential, which makes them a powerful tool in the treatment of complex diseases. To maximize their clinical efficacy and ensure patient safety, it is essential that BsAb candidates are carefully designed or selected for optimal manufacturability. This includes ensuring that the molecules are easy to express, yield a high proportion of correctly assembled units, and exhibit minimal aggregation during production.

Fortunately, advances in recombinant DNA technology and protein engineering have greatly facilitated the design and optimization of BsAbs. These innovations have enabled the precise engineering of heterologous combinations of heavy and light chains to allow for more sophisticated and effective therapeutic constructs. Companies like Cytiva, with over 300 years of experience in global innovation and scientific discovery, offer invaluable tools, expertise, and support throughout every stage of BsAb therapy development.
