The CRO industry is predicted to grow considerably over the next five years. Trials are becoming more complex, and technology is becoming increasingly interwoven with processes. The CRO of tomorrow must be tech smart, agile, and environmentally conscious to remain relevant. In this changing landscape, how does a CRO cut through the noise in 2022-30?

Araris' linker technology enables site-specific payload attachment to a specific amino acid (Q295) within the IgG-Fc framework. When a payload is attached to this site, the antibody still maintains nearly identical performance (e.g. pharmacokinetics and effector functions) to the unconjugated, original antibody. Furthermore, the linker-payload is connected to the antibody through a very strong peptide bond resulting in exceptional stability in the blood stream and thus minimal adverse effects. © Araris Biotech AG

Swiss ADC maker Araris Biotech AG has added a $24m financing round to its CHF15.2m (S17.8m) seed round in 2020 to expand its portfolio of proprietary antibody drug conjugates.
