ABOUT

Clora has partnered with a preclinical-stage oncology biotech that is developing antibody drug conjugates (ADCs) and radioligand therapies for the treatment of solid tumors. They are seeking a discovery biologist to advance our tumor-selective radioligand therapy program based on the client's proprietary platform. The role will focus on optimizing tumor targeting, biodistribution, and retention while minimizing normal-tissue exposure.

RESPONSIBILITIES

  • Design and oversee in vitro and in vivo studies evaluating RLT candidate binding, internalization, tumor uptake, and retention.
  • Characterize the impact of antibody affinity, binding kinetics, and Fc engineering on tumor targeting and systemic clearance.
  • Analyze biodistribution, imaging, and tissue radioactivity data to support lead optimization and candidate selection.
  • Coordinate radiolabeling, imaging, and pharmacology studies with external CROs and radiochemistry collaborators.
  • Support selection of development candidates and design of IND-enabling pharmacology studies.

IDEAL CANDIDATE

  • PhD or MS in cancer biology, pharmacology, molecular biology, or related field with at least 5+ industry experience within Biotech/Biopharma/Pharma organization(s)
  • Strong background in antibody biology, tumor models, and preclinical oncology pharmacology.
  • Experience with radiopharmaceuticals, quantitative biodistribution, SPECT/PET imaging, or radio-labeled biologics is strongly preferred.
