End-To-End Automated Intact Protein Mass Spectrometry for High-Throughput Screening and Characterization of Bispecific and Multispecific Antibodies.

Bispecific antibodies (bsAbs) and multispecific antibodies (msAbs) represent a promising frontier in therapeutic antibody development, offering unique capabilities not achievable with traditional monoclonal antibodies. Despite their potential, significant challenges remain due to their increased molecular complexity. One prominent challenge is the correct assembly of light and heavy chains, as improper pairing leads to mispaired or incompletely assembled species that lack therapeutic efficacy and possess undesired properties, impairing the developability, manufacturability, and safety.
