ADC payloads, also known as cytotoxic or chemotherapeutic agents, are the active drug molecules that are conjugated to the antibody component of an ADC. These payloads are designed to induce cell death within targeted cancer cells, thereby achieving the desired therapeutic effect. The selection of an appropriate payload is a critical consideration in ADC manufacturing, as it directly impacts the potency, specificity, and stability of the final therapeutic product.
