Tumor targeting properties of monoclonal antibodies with different affinity for target antigen CD44V6 in nude mice bearing head‐and‐neck cancer xenografts
25 Apr 2002
Abstract excerpt
The CD44 protein family consists of isoforms with tissue-specific expression, which are encoded by standard exons and up to 9 alternatively spliced variant exons (v2-v10) of the same gene. The murine MAbs U36 and BIWA-1, directed against overlapping epitopes within the v6 region of CD44, have previously been shown to efficiently target HNSCC. We herein report on the construction of 1 chimeric (BIWA-2) and 2...
