摘要:
The present invention relates generally to methods and compositions for targeting the vasculature of solid tumors using immunologically-based reagents. In particular aspects, antibodies carrying diagnostic or therapeutic agents are targeted to the vasculature of solid tumor masses through recognition of tumor vasculature-associated antigens, such as, for example, through endoglin binding, or through the specific induction of endothelial cell surface antigens on vascular endothelial cells in solid tumors.
摘要:
A method for identifying and/or determining the location of a tumor which produces or is associated with a cytoplasmic, intra-cellular or cell surface marker substance, is disclosed, which comprises the steps of:(a) injecting a human or animal subject with tumor specific antibody or a fragment thereof specific for the marker and labelled with a radioactive isotope of an element or a paramagnetic conjugate; and an irrelevant (non-tumor reactive) antibody which has been labelled with a non-radioactive isotope of the same or other element, or a non-paramagnetic conjugate; and(b) after a period of time sufficient for selective binding of the labelled tumor specific antibody to the tumor scanning the human or animal subject with a detector to locate the site or sites of uptake of labelled antibody or fragments thereof.Imaging compositions are also described.
摘要:
The invention relates to specific relaxation agents for organs or pathologies, which can be used for modifying the contrasts in medical imaging by nuclear magnetic resonance.These agents are constituted by a complex of a paramagnetic element having a biologically active ligand or a ligand coupled to a biologically active molecule and which is specific to an organ or pathology. Thus, they are selectively fixed to the organs and make it possible to modify the contrasts in imaging by nuclear magnetic resonance, due to the presence of the paramagnetic element, which modifies the relaxation times.For example, when examining the kidney, the complex can be constituted by dimercaptosuccinate or gadolinium diethylene triaminopentaacetate, whilst gadolinium phytate is used in examinations of the liver.
摘要:
Bifunctional coupling agent for joining radionuclide metal ions to biologically useful molecules, including antibody Fab' fragments are disclosed. The coupling agents contain a maleimide moiety and a paramagnetic or radionuclide chelating moiety. The maleimide can be used to selectively bind to free sulfhydryl groups, or amine groups.
摘要:
The present disclosure relates to prostate specific membrane antigen (PSMA) targeted compounds conjugated to near-infra red (NIR) dyes and methods for their therapeutic and diagnostic use. More specifically, this disclosure provides compounds and methods for diagnosing and treating diseases associated with cells and/or vasculature expressing prostate specific membrane antigen (PSMA), such as prostate cancer and related diseases. The disclosure further describes methods and compositions for making and using the compounds, methods incorporating the compounds, and kits incorporating the compounds.
摘要:
The present disclosure describes antigen binding molecules, including antibodies, that specifically bind to the anti-CD20 scFv-14 or Gibbon ape leukemia virus gp70 protein, as well as molecules comprising the described sequences and cells presenting such molecules. The antigen binding molecules may be used in research, diagnostic, clinical, and other applications.
摘要:
Antibody drug conjugates (ADC's) comprising a drug conjugated to antibody or antigen binding fragments thereof that bind to Globo series antigen disclosed herein, as well as methods of use thereof. Methods of use include, without limitation, cancer therapies and diagnostics. The antibodies of the disclosure can bind to certain cancer cell surfaces. Exemplary targets of the antibodies disclosed herein can include carcinomas, such as sarcoma, skin cancer, leukemia, lymphoma, brain cancer, glioblastoma, lung cancer, breast cancer, oral cancer, head-and-neck cancer, nasopharyngeal cancer, esophagus cancer, stomach cancer, liver cancer, bile duct cancer, gallbladder cancer, bladder cancer, pancreatic cancer, intestinal cancer, colorectal cancer, kidney cancer, cervix cancer, endometrial cancer, ovarian cancer, testical cancer, buccal cancer, oropharyngeal cancer, laryngeal cancer and prostate cancer.
摘要:
The invention relates to a multifunctional system stable in a physiological medium, which includes in the same platform an anti-carcinogenic molecule, an imaging agent and a directing molecule that interacts specifically with cancer-cell membrane receptors, the system allowing pathological tissue imaging and pharmacological action to be carried out jointly with high specificity. The intratumoral administration of the system facilitates selective diffusion to cancer cells and minimises the disadvantages of chemotherapy.
摘要:
Compounds containing TRPV6-binding peptides and their use in the detection and diagnosis of cancer are described. Also described are methods for detecting and staging cancer that use the compounds of the invention. Compounds containing TRPV6-binding peptides are useful for the delivery of diagnostic and therapeutic agents to cells or tumors that express TRPV6.
