Interrogating heterogeneity of cysteine-engineered antibody-drug conjugates and antibody-oligonucleotide conjugates by capillary zone electrophoresis-mass spectrometry by Tian Xu, Fan Zhang, Daoyang Chen, Liangliang Sun, Daniela Tomazela, Laurence Fayadat-Dilman

“…CZE analysis of six ADCs made with different parent monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) and small molecule drug-linker payloads revealed that various fragment impurities, such as half mAbs with one/two drugs, light chains with one/two drugs, light chains with C-terminal cysteine truncation, heavy chain clippings, were well resolved from the main species. However, most of these fragments were coeluted or had signal suppression during LC-MS analysis. …”
