"Cancer cells can be killed by photosensitizing agents that induce toxic effects when exposed to nonhazardous light, but this also causes significant damage to surrounding healthy cells."1.37SNAP-tag technology mediates site specific conjugation of antibody fragments with a photosensitizer and improves target specific phototoxicity in tumor cells. ( Barth, S; Hussain, AF; Kampmeier, F; Merk, HF; Tur, MK; von Felbert, V, 2011)
"In the setting of target-based anticancer drug development, it is critical to establish that the observed preclinical activity can be attributed to modulation of the intended target in early phase trials in human subjects."1.31Sequential tumor biopsies in early phase clinical trials of anticancer agents for pharmacodynamic evaluation.
