Tumor Imaging with 99mTc-Labelled Antibody Fragmentst
Althoughthe labelling of proteins with was established in 1964 by McAfee, et al., this isotope has been avoided by most investigators for the labelling of antibodies for tumor localization. There are several reasons for this: (1)the half-life is only 6 hours while most previous radiolabelled antibody localization studies have shown that the required tumor-toblood ratio needed for tumor visualiz...
متن کاملRadioimmunoscintigraphy of ocular melanoma with 99mTc labelled cutaneous melanoma antibody fragments.
The possibility of using radiolabelled monoclonal antibody fragments to image uveal melanomas has been assessed in a pilot study. 99mTc labelled F(ab')2 fragments of MoAb 225.28S raised against cutaneous melanomas were used. Initially 10 patients were imaged. In five patients the clinical findings were typical of uveal melanoma. Immunoscintigraphy was positive in all five cases. In a further fi...
متن کاملImaging of tumor angiogenesis using 99mTc-labeled human recombinant anti-ED-B fibronectin antibody fragments.
UNLABELLED The aim of this study was to target the angiogenesis-associated extracellular matrix protein ED-B fibronectin for molecular imaging of solid tumors. Recombinant and chemically modified derivatives of the single-chain antibody fragment (scFv) L19, capable of being labeled with 99mTc, were synthesized and radiolabeled. The resulting compounds 99mTc-AP39, 99mTc-L19-His, and 99mTc-L19-Hi...
متن کاملNoninvasive arterial thrombus imaging with 99mTc monoclonal antifibrin antibody.
BACKGROUND The T2G1s monoclonal antifibrin antibody binds specifically to fibrin but not to fibrinogen. METHODS AND RESULTS In a canine model of acute arterial thrombosis, we determined the feasibility of imaging thrombi using a 99mTc-labeled Fab' fragment. In 14 dogs, 10 carotid and 13 femoral artery thrombi were produced using 2-hour temporary occlusion, crush injury, and local thrombin inj...
متن کاملClinical studies of cancer radioimmunodetection with carcinoembryonic antigen monoclonal antibody fragments labeled with 123I or 99mTc.
Seventy-three patients with diverse cancers containing carcinoembryonic antigen received 123I-labeled anti-carcinoembryonic antigen monoclonal antibody F(ab')2 fragment [38 patients], 99mTc-labeled anti-carcinoembryonic antigen monoclonal antibody Fab' fragment [23 patients], or both reagents at different times [6 patients] for evaluation of antibody targeting and imaging [radioimmunodetection ...
