ADC Research Led by Sun Yat-sen University Cancer Center May Influence Future Treatment Guidelines

With advances in technology and growing clinical experience, China’s development of antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) has evolved from following international trends to driving innovation independently. A recent example is the phase I clinical trial of YL201—the world’s first B7-H3-targeted ADC for advanced solid tumors—led by Professors Li Zhang and Hongyun Zhao from Sun Yat-sen University Cancer Center. The results were published in Nature Medicine, one of the most respected medical journals worldwide, marking a new step in global recognition for domestically developed therapies.
