IAB2M is an engineered mAb developed as a first-in-human clinical proof of concept in this study conducted by MSKCC[2]
-
• Lesions were seen within the first 24 hours after injection and uptake was seen to increase at each successive imaging timepoint throughout the course of the study; demonstrating effective residualization of radiation inside cancer cells
-
IAB2M shows highly specific targeting of cancer lesions, with no salivary gland uptake and faster clearance from the blood as expected
