Together we are working on a new treatment approach in oncology. Based on our ADC technologies, we are developing novel drugs for the targeted and highly effective treatment of cancer. ADCs are antibody drug conjugates that combine the specificity of antibodies with the efficacy of toxins to fight cancer. We use several compounds and have built up an ADC toolbox that overcomes tumor resistance via numerous pathways and addresses different types of cancer using various antibodies. Our goal is to develop targeted and highly effective ADCs for the treatment of a variety of malignant hematologic and solid tumors.

We offer varied positions in research, development and administration. We accompany you on your personal career path and offer you a variety of opportunities to develop yourself further.
