Company Overview

ADC Therapeutics SA is a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on the development and commercialization of antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) to treat hematological malignancies and solid tumors. Utilizing its proprietary pyrrolobenzodiazepine (PBD) cytotoxin platform, the company designs targeted therapies that deliver powerful anti-cancer agents directly to tumor cells while minimizing systemic exposure. ADC Therapeutics oversees all stages of drug development from discovery and preclinical evaluation through clinical trials and regulatory approval.

The company’s lead product, loncastuximab tesirine (marketed as Zynlonta), received regulatory approval for the treatment of relapsed or refractory large B-cell lymphoma. Beyond this first-in-class ADC, ADC Therapeutics has multiple additional candidates in its pipeline, including camidanlumab tesirine for Hodgkin lymphoma and several earlier-stage programs targeting solid tumors and other blood cancers. The organization collaborates with academic institutions and industry partners to explore combination therapies, expand indications, and enhance the therapeutic potential of its ADC platform.

Founded in 2011 as a spin-out of the UK-based ADC specialist Spirogen, ADC Therapeutics is headquartered in Lausanne, Switzerland, with a major research and development hub in Princeton, New Jersey. The company completed its initial public offering on the New York Stock Exchange in 2018 under the ticker ADCT. Led by an experienced management team with deep expertise in oncology drug development and commercialization, ADC Therapeutics continues to execute its strategic vision of bringing targeted, high-potency cancer therapies to patients worldwide.
