Linking

The process of “attaching” a drug or a toxin to a monoclonal antibody, or another homing molecule of the immune system. Because this attachment must be reversible, so that the homing molecule can release the drug or toxin after delivering that drug or toxin to the desired site in the body (e.g., delivery of a toxin to a tumor, to kill the tumor), linking is a difficult process to reliably achieve.
