A record number of novel monoclonal antibodies (mAbs), bispecific antibodies (BsAb), and mAb fragments are entering clinical studies. Manufacturing of these new modalities requires a robust downstream purification process that produces high yield, purity, and productivity much like its mAb predecessor.

When the traditional platform purification of mAbs are applied to new engineered modalities, it can result in insufficient yields due to concentration of complex biproducts and poor binding of the target molecule to the protein A domain. Newer affinity chromatography resins have been developed specifically for the engineered modalities. They bind to different antibody-subdomain regions with high specificity and mild elution conditions to increase yield and reduce aggregation. These affinity resins can provide an improved solution for the purification of engineered novel mAbs, BsAb and mAb fragments.

Key Takeaways:

  • Learn about a novel affinity chromatography technology developed to address purification needs of modern engineered antibodies and mAb fragments.

  • Examine affinity chromatography resins that bind a variety of antibody-subdomain regions outside of protein A binding that could increase the yield and purity in the purification process.

  • Analyze case studies comparing the performance of these alternative resins to Protein A chromatography.
