The present invention relates to the use of radioimmunoconjugates for the treatment of bone marrow associated diseases, particularly AL-amyloidosis.

Disclosed are novel detectable imaging agents that can bind to a novel biomarker for cancer and methods of their use in the resection of a tumor.

Disclosed herein are humanized antibodies, antigen-binding fragments thereof, and antibody conjugates, that are capable of specifically binding to certain biantennary Lewis antigens, which antigens are expressed in a variety of cancers. The presently disclosed antibodies are useful to target antigen-expressing cells for treatment or detection of disease, including various cancers. Also provided are polynucleotides, vectors, and host cells for producing the disclosed antibodies and antigen-binding fragments thereof. Pharmaceutical compositions, methods of treatment and detection, and uses of the antibodies, antigen-binding fragments, antibody conjugates, and compositions are also provided.

Provided are an anti-human CEACAM5 antibody Fab fragment expected to be useful in the diagnosis of a cancer, particularly, the diagnosis of colorectal cancer, breast cancer, lung cancer, thyroid gland cancer or a cancer resulting from the metastasis thereof, and a diagnosis approach using a conjugate comprising the Fab fragment. The present invention provides an anti-human CEACAM5 antibody Fab fragment comprising a heavy chain fragment comprising a heavy chain variable region consisting of the amino acid sequence represented by amino acid positions 1 to 121 of SEQ ID NO: 2, and a light chain comprising a light chain variable region consisting of the amino acid sequence represented by amino acid positions 1 to 112 of SEQ ID NO: 4, and a conjugate comprising the Fab fragment.

The present application relates to antibodies which bind specifically to chelated radionuclides, including bispecific antibodies, It further relates to the use of such bispecific antibodies in applications such as radioimmunoimaging and radioimmunotherapy. It additionally relates to clearing agents and useful in such methods.

The present invention relates to an antigen-binding protein, or an antigen-binding fragment thereof which binding to CEACAM6, comprising (i) a heavy chain variable domain comprising a VHCDR1 having the amino acid sequence GNTFTSYVMH; a VHCDR2 having the amino acid sequence YINPYNDGTKYNEKFKG; and a VHCDR3 having the amino acid sequence STARATPYFYAMDY and (ii) a light chain variable domain comprising a VLCDR1 having the amino acid sequence KSSQSLLWSVNQNSYLS, a VLCDR2 having the amino acid sequence GASIRES, and a VLCDR3 having the amino acid sequence QHNHGSFLPYT. The present invention also relates to compositions comprising the antigen-binding protein, or antigen-binding fragment thereof, methods of use of the antigen-binding protein, or antigen-binding fragment thereof for cancer treatment, prevention or detection and a kit comprising the antigen-binding protein, or antigen-binding fragment thereof.

Provided herein, inter alia, are radionuclide-labeled antibodies, immunocytokines, and methods for treating cancer using combination therapy with the radionuclide-labeled antibodies and the immunocytokines.

Disclosed is a tumor-specific antibody and fluorophore conjugate for detecting, localizing and imaging of various tumors. Also disclosed are methods for detecting, localizing and imaging a solid tumor before or during a tumor resection surgery using the antibody-fluorophore conjugate.

It is an object of the present invention to provide a novel halogenated biotin-modified dimer capable of performing imaging diagnosis or treatment. According to the present invention, a compound represented by the following formula (1) or a salt thereof is provided:

##STR00001##

wherein L.sub.1 represents a trivalent linking group, L.sub.2 represents a divalent linking group, Hal represents a halogen, p represents an integer of 1 to 5, and q, r, s, and t each independently represent an integer of 1 to 8.
