Latest Features
All immunogenicity assessments present specific challenges. As a contract research organization (CRO), a major challenge we face is related to the lack of harmonization and standardization. Find out more in this editorial from a team at LGC (Cambridgeshire, UK).
In this methodology article from Bioanalysis, H Li et al. describe the use of the Mitra® microsampler for blood sampling, ELISA quantitation and PK analysis of two marketed therapeutic monoclonal antibodies administered to rats.
As part of our Spotlight on immunogenicity, we carried out a survey to gain an insight into the trends, challenges and developments associated with immunogenicity testing. We would like to thank everyone who was able to share their thoughts by taking part in the survey.
