Abstract 5758: Generation and characterization of novel monoclonal antibodies against overexpressed CD109 on pancreatic cancer cells for use in diagnosis and therapy
Abstract:Pancreatic cancer is one of the most aggressive and lethal types of cancer, and more effective therapeutic agents are urgently needed. Overexpressed cell surface antigens are ideal targets for therapy with monoclonal antibody (mAb)-based drugs, and several have been approved for the treatment of human cancers; however, none have approval for pancreatic cancer. Our aim was to discover novel overexpressed cell surface antigens in human pancreatic cancer cells using mAb technology. We have generated two novel mou… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
