The antibody serves as guide for the ADC to work on the cancerous cells where it attaches to antigens on the cellular surface. Once the ADC reaches the cell, the cytotoxic drug begins to perform its function of destroying the tumor cells. A Monoclonal AntibodySelecting well-characterized antigens as antibody targets plays an important role in the success of ADC development. Investigations involving tumor-associated antigens being potential targets for ADC antibody component have already been done.
