A Clinical Trial Evaluating TQB2101 in Subjects With Advanced Hematologic Malignancies

TQB2101 for Injection is an Antibody-Drug Conjugate (ADC) targeting Receptor Tyrosine Kinase Like Orphan Receptor 1 (ROR1).It consists of three main components: a ROR1 monoclonal antibody responsible for selectively recognizing the surface antigen of cancer cells, a small molecule toxin responsible for killing cancer cells, and a linker connecting the antibody and the small molecule toxin. It is intended for clinical use in the treatment of advanced malignant tumors, including advanced malignant hematological tumors.
