Mastering the Art of Developing a Successful Bispecific Antibody

Transitioning from single-functional antibodies to sophisticated bispecific designs not only introduces unique challenges but also demands innovative approaches. Unlike traditional antibodies, bispecifics require carefully tailored screening strategies in order to identify the most effective format.

Watch our on-demand webinar today to gain valuable insights into the strategies and methodologies that can help you successfully navigate the complexities of bispecific antibody development.

In this comprehensive webinar, we thoroughly explore the principles and practices of developing successful bispecific antibodies. Specifically, we delve into intelligent bispecific design, focusing on key factors such as avidity, spacing, and the formatting of fragment antigen binding (Fab) and single-chain fragment vehicle (scFv) arms. Our systematic approach aims to streamline the screening process, allowing for broad exploration while maintaining minimal designs.

You will learn about:

  • Key Design Considerations for Bispecific Candidates: Discover what elements to include and avoid in order to optimize your designs
  • Efficiently Improving Purity with Single-Step Purification: Uncover methods to enhance antibody purity efficiently
  • In-Depth Case Study on Screening Strategies: Gain an understanding of the importance of screening multiple designs through a detailed case study
