Harnessing Precision Synapse Engineering by Designing Condition‑Specific Co‑Stimulation to Advance Therapeutic Windows
11:00 am

Join this workshop to navigate the engineering trade‑offs required to unlock the potential of costimulatory engagers in solid tumors.

  • Identifying tumour targets and biological contexts where conditional activation can meaningfully improve safety, selectivity, and therapeutic index
  • Evaluating masking strategies across T cell engager architectures, including associated efficacy and development trade‑offs
  • Designing protease‑ and microenvironment‑responsive systems by selecting robust cleavable linkers, pH‑sensitive elements, and stable molecular building blocks suitable for tumour‑localized activation
  • Defining pharmacokinetic and preclinical data requirements needed to justify the added complexity of conditionally activated T cell engagers relative to conventional formats
