Developing an antibody tag with improved pharmacokinetics and stability allowed Tagworks to achieve increased tumor uptake of a radiolabeled pretargeting probe. Even though this adapted tag exhibited a slight loss in reactivity, its use in a antibody (CC49-TCO) conjugate demonstrated a longer clearance half-life, improved tumor accumulation and increased in …
Approaches that use in vivo chemistry to enable non-invasive molecular imaging and therapy are much sought after. Taking the recent achievements in pretargeted radioimmuno-imaging and -therapy in mice as a starting point, the Tagworks team discuss how the application scope of this approach can eventually be extended towards humans.
