    Optimizing the DAR is crucial for achieving the balance between ADC stability and efficacy. This workshop will explore strategies for fine-tuning the DAR ratio to develop stable and efficacious ADCs, to improve clinical outcomes.
This workshop will cover:
- Understanding how hydrophobic payloads limit achievable DAR and strategies to mitigate this
 - Leveraging moieties like phosphate prodrugs, PEGs, and charged amino acids to improve linker hydrophilicity and increase DAR
 - Exploring the relationship between DAR, solubility, and off-target effects
 - Balancing solvent selection, payload design, and conjugation strategies to achieve optimal DAR without compromising stability
