Four Ways to Show Nonobviousness of ADC Inventions

As research continues to progress and the scientific community’s appreciation for the power of ADCs has grown, so have the numbers. FDA has now approved at least four ADCs, and hundreds more are in development. The number of patent applications has also grown, with the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) publishing over two hundred patent applications with claims to ADC inventions in the last two years alone.
