Antibodies, especially bispecifics, present a unique challenge: their complex multidomain structures carry multiple potential liabilities. To unlock their full therapeutic potential, we believe in a meticulous, multiparameter characterization approach. This includes testing under both standard and stress conditions to ensure optimal performance.
Avidity effects from bivalency and bispecificity can significantly alter binding behavior compared to simpler 1:1 interactions. In the world of bispecifics, understanding these dual-targeting mechanisms and their intricacies is crucial for success.
At 2bind, our specialized biophysical services are designed precisely for this challenge. We unravel these complexities, providing precise solutions for binding dynamics and specificity, so you can make informed decisions with confidence. Let our expertise guide you towards the successful development of your therapeutics.
