ANTIBODY DRUG CONJUGATE (ADC) PURIFICATION (ADC)

摘要

The invention provides methods for obtaining compositions having antibody drug conjugates (ADCs) with specified drug to antibody ratios (DARs). Included in the invention is a method for purifying an ADC mixture having ADCs with a drug loaded species of 6 or more by contacting the mixture with a hydrophobic resin such that a composition comprising less than 15% of the 6 or more drug loaded species is obtained. The invention also provides a composition wherein 70% or more of the ADCs present have a drug loaded species of 4 or less, wherein the ADC comprises an anti-EGFR antibody and an auristatin.
