Modified antibody and radioactive metal-labelled antibody

Described is a labeling technique which can facilitate the metabolism in the liver after administration to patients without the reduction in the antibody function, thereby reducing accumulation of radionuclides in an organ such as the liver, and a modified antibody containing an IgG antibody and an IgG-binding peptide bound to the IgG antibody. The IgG-binding peptide has an amino acid sequence consisting of 13 to 17 amino acid residues, such as GPDCAYH(Xaa1)GELVWCTFH (SEQ ID NO: 2) wherein Xaa1 represents a lysine residue, a cysteine residue, an aspartic acid residue, a glutamic acid residue, 2-aminosuberic acid, or diaminopropionic acid, and a compound represented by the following formula (II-1) is linked at a position of the lysine residue via a modification linker to the N terminus of the IgG-binding peptide. ##STR00001##

20220387733 · 2022-12-08 ·

Systems, kits and methods for preparing an injection system and/or treating target lesions with a selective internal radiation therapy which includes a double-barrel syringe loaded with a two-component tissue glue and radioisotope loaded microspheres. The microspheres are loaded into the syringe based on the size of the target location and are administered with a needle or dual-lumen catheter. Dosing regimens for treating breast cancer lesions or surgical beds up to 130 mm in diameter and hepatocellular carcinoma lesions up to 50 mm are included.

THERAPEUTIC AGENT TARGETING HER2

There is provided a therapeutic conjugate comprising a fusion protein and a cytotoxic radionuclide, which cytotoxic radionuclide is bound to the fusion protein. The fusion protein comprises a certain HER2-binding region (HBR), a certain albumin-binding region (ABR) and a spacer region.

Immunologically Active Peptide-Biliverdin Conjugate, Preparation Method Therefor and Application Thereof

The present disclosure relates to an immunologically active peptide-biliverdin conjugate (I), a preparation method therefor and an application thereof in cancer diagnosis, and/or tumor immunotherapy, and/or tumor “photothermal immunotherapy” (tumor photothermal therapy combined with immunotherapy). The conjugate to which the present disclosure relates not only may stimulate an organism to generate a tumor-immune effect, but also may relieve and/or eliminate tumor inflammation, remodel a tumor inflammatory microenvironment and achieve photothermal cancer immunodiagnosis and immunotherapy. The conjugate to which the present disclosure relates has high biocompatibility, good stability and an extended half-life. The conjugate is prepared from an immunologically active peptide and biliverdin by means of chemical synthesis. A peptide end of the conjugate exercises the function of immunoregulation, and a pigment end thereof exercises functions such as tumor imaging diagnosis, tumor photo-thermal ablation, immune inflammatory microenvironment regulation and the like. The conjugate may significantly enhance the antitumor effect and effectively inhibit tumor metastasis and recurrence.

RADIOPHARMACEUTICAL CONJUGATE

This invention relates new radiopharmaceutical conjugates for use in improved methods of diagnosis and treatment of cancer. The radiopharmaceutical conjugate comprises, in sequence: a metabolite that targets tumour cells, bound to a chelating agent capable of containing a radionuclide, bound to a linker capable of binding with an EPR agent in vitro or in vivo; or a chelating agent capable of containing a radionuclide, bound to a metabolite that targets tumour cells, bound to a linker capable of binding with an EPR agent in vitro or in vivo. The radiopharmaceutical conjugates of the present invention provide active and passive targeted radio nuclide delivery systems that can help to improve the biodistribution and pharmacological toxicity of the radiopharmaceuticals used for the diagnosis and therapy of cancer.

Oncolytic Poliovirus for Human Tumors

Human clinical use of a chimeric poliovirus construct has demonstrated excellent anti-tumor effect. The mechanism of action is believed to involve both viral oncolysis as well as immune recruitment, both of which lead to necrosis in the area of the tumor. No adverse effects have been observed.

Alpha Emitter Compositions And Methods
20220040338 · 2022-02-10 ·

Compositions, methods, and uses of an alpha emitter are provided in which the alpha emitter is coupled to carrier protein via a cleavable coupling moiety. The coupling moiety is preferably cleavable in an acidic tumor microenvironment, and as such will enrich the alpha emitter upon cleavage within the tumor microenvironment.

CONJUGATES OF BIVALENT EVANS BLUE DYE DERIVATIVES AND METHODS OF USE
20220017495 · 2022-01-20 ·

A compound of Formula (I) or a pharmaceutically acceptable ester, amide, solvate, or salt thereof, or a salt of such an ester or amide or a solvate of such an ester amide or salt, is disclosed. Compositions comprising the compound and methods of use are also disclosed. Those dimeric Evans Blue derivatives, denoted as N(tEB)2, reversibly bind two molecules of albumin via the two albumin binding regions of each NtEB in the dimer, resulting in significantly increased binding affinity to albumin and extended circulation half-life in vivo. Further, when the N(tEB)2 is conjugated to a peptide therapeutic, the in situ formation of the complex of N(tEB)2 with two albumin molecules resulted in increased resistance of the peptide therapeutic from proteolysis.
