Pretargeted Molecular Imaging and Radioimmunotherapy
Pretargeting is a multi-step process that first has an unlabeled bispecific antibody (bsMAb) localize within a tumor by virtue of its anti-tumor binding site(s) before administering a small, fast-clearing radiolabeled compound that then attaches to the other portion of the bsMAb. The compound's rapid clearance significantly reduces radiation exposure outside of the tumor and its small size perm...
متن کاملPretargeted radioimmunotherapy for B-cell lymphomas.
Relapsed or treatment refractory B-cell lymphomas are currently incurable with conventional chemotherapy and radiation treatments. High-dose chemoradiotherapy and stem cell transplantation can cure some patients with relapsed or refractory lymphoma, but the majority of such patients die of progressive disease. We have investigated the potential utility of pretargeted radioimmunotherapy using mo...
متن کاملA comparative evaluation of conventional and pretargeted radioimmunotherapy of CD20-expressing lymphoma xenografts.
Radioimmunotherapy with anti-CD20 monoclonal antibodies is a promising new treatment approach for patients with relapsed B-cell lymphomas. However, the majority of patients treated with conventional radiolabeled anti-CD20 antibodies eventually have a relapse because the low tumor-to-blood and tumor-to-normal organ ratios of absorbed radioactivity limit the dose that can be safely administered w...
متن کاملPretargeted radioimmunotherapy of cancer: progress step by step.
To enhance the therapeutic efficacy of radioimmunotherapy of cancer, several pretargeting strategies have been developed. In pretargeted radioimmunotherapy, the tumor is pretargeted with an antibody construct that has affinity for the tumor-associated antigen on the one hand and for a radiolabeled hapten on the other. The radiolabeled hapten is administered in a later phase, preferably after th...
متن کاملPretargeted radioimmunotherapy in the treatment of metastatic medullary thyroid cancer
Medullary thyroid carcinoma (mtc) is a rare cancer (less than 8% of all thyroid cancers) that occurs both as a familial and as a sporadic disease. Total thyroidectomy with dissection of the ipsilateral and central lymph nodes, sometimes extended to contralateral dissection, is the primary treatment of hereditary and sporadic mtc alike. after surgery, many patients are cured, especially those wi...
