15:00 - 16:00 CEST on Zoom

This free webinar is hosted in collaboration with Roche, one of our valued EACR Industry Partners. 

Antibody-Drug Conjugates (ADCs) have revolutionized cancer therapy, advancing from early drug-delivery concepts into sophisticated, multifunctional targeted therapies. In this EACR webinar, speakers from Roche will trace the historical evolution of the ADC paradigm and explore how clinical milestones are informing next-generation therapeutic strategies.

The presentation covers three key pillars:

• Clinical challenges and opportunities for ADCs: A review of ADC history and clinical progress, examining lessons learned from approved therapies and recent data updates with a focus on Lung Cancer.
• Rational Combinations: Key translational insights from hematologic and solid tumor trials, detailing combination strategies with immune checkpoint inhibitors (CPIs), T-cell engagers (TCEs), and bispecific modalities.
• Next-Generation Platforms & Future Directions: An overview of upcoming R&D frontiers, including novel payload mechanisms, dual-payload engineering, and approaches to overcome tumor heterogeneity and treatment resistance.
