Antibody-drug Conjugates & Bioconjugates
HOW SMARTAG WORKS
SMARTag® technology enables a simple and efficient chemoenzymatic approach for generating uniform antibody drug conjugates:
- Site-specific, programmable drug placement
- Proprietary, natural amino acid-based “aldehyde tagging” technology
- Control of payload location and drug-antibody-ratio (DAR) to optimize conjugate performance for each linker-payload
- Improved homogeneity of conjugated product offers simplified analytics
- Efficient and scalable development
- One step in vivo tag generation
- Compatible with any cell-based expression system
- >95% tag conversion yields and high conjugation yields
- Demonstrated antibody titers up to 5g/L
The SMARTag technology platform was developed by Redwood Bioscience, a wholly owned subsidiary of Catalent, Inc.
