- Winning scientific poster shows complete tumor regression and high tolerability of SYNtecan E™ based ADCs
- SYNtecan E™ linker-payload is developed by Synaffix based on the potent DNA topoisomerase 1 inhibiting exatecan
- Additionally, Synaffix was awarded ‘Runner-Up’ for the 2021 Best ADC Platform Technology (Winner in 2020)
AMSTERDAM, NETHERLANDS – 28 October 2021 — Synaffix B.V., a biotechnology company focused on commercializing its clinical-stage platform technology for the development of antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) with best-in-class therapeutic index today announces that the Company was awarded Best Poster at Hanson Wade’s 2021 World ADC Conference. Separately, Synaffix was also awarded ‘Runner-Up’ for the Best ADC Platform Technology.
New data presented in the winning poster, titled: “GlycoConnect™ ADCs Based on Topoisomerase 1 Inhibitor Exatecan (SYNtecan E™) Show Excellent In Vivo Efficacy and Tolerability Data” demonstrated complete tumor regression and high tolerability of SYNtecan E™ based ADCs, and underscores the ability of Synaffix’s technologies to enable best-in-class, next generation ADCs.
This marks the fifth year that Synaffix’ groundbreaking ADC platform technology has been acknowledged at the World ADC Awards ceremony as industry-leading, by a judging panel of world-renowned ADC experts. The 2021 finalists were shortlisted through a voting pool of over 2,500 individuals, with a panel of distinguished, independent industry experts from across the ADC field assessing each finalist to decide the winners.
Prof. Floris van Delft, CSO of Synaffix, said: “The SYNtecan E™ linker-payload represents a transformational innovation that emerged from our own laboratories here in the Netherlands. This appreciation by our industry peers serves as yet another testament to the high-quality science that underlies our broader ADC platform technology offering and we look forward to continuing the close collaboration with our various partners as this linker-drug enters the clinical development phase.”
