Antibody−drug conjugates in oncology
Antibody–drug conjugates (ADCs) have emerged as a promising class of targeted cancer therapies that improve upon traditional chemotherapy by delivering potent cytotoxic payloads directly to tumors. Advances in ligand discovery and molecular engineering have enabled improved efficacy, resulting in a growing number of regulatory approvals worldwide. This Collection brings together a selection of research, reviews and opinion pieces published in Nature Portfolio journals over the past 3 years. These articles highlight the opportunities and challenges associated with this evolving therapeutic class.
