Seminars

Wednesday 25th February 2026
Summary Panel Discussion: Exploring ADC Clinical Performance & Improving Clinical Design to Reach Meaningful Patient Benefit for ADCs
2:30 pm

Join the clinical and medical presenters to review the key learnings from the scientific programme days. Be sure to bring any questions across ADC clinical development strategy, dose escalation, biomarker-driven development, and ADC sequencing.

Thursday 26th February 2026
Navigating Clinical Utility Index Approaches & Clinical Pharmacology Strategy to Optimise ADC Dose Selection
1:00 pm

Navigating dose escalation and selection is a crucial stage in early development to set up ADC performance for success under Project Optimus guidelines

Don’t miss this Eli Lilly-led workshop to delve into all things ADC clinical pharmacology across quantitative systems pharmacology and clinical utility index approaches to optimise your ADC dose selection

Workshop highlights include:

  • Utilising quantitative systems pharmacology to investigate ADC preclinical PK/PD characterisation
  • Leveraging clinical utility index approach to assess the benefit-risk profiles of ADCs
  • Understanding ADC-specific clinical pharmacology considerations and assessing lessons learnt from ADC dose capping
