Background: The utilization of monoclonal antibodies (moAbs), an issue correlated with the biopharmaceutical professions, is developing and maturing. Coordinated with this conception, we produced the appealingly modeled anti-EpCAM scFv for breast cancer tumors.

Methods: Afterward cloning and expression of recombinant antibody in Escherichia coli bacteria, the correctness of the desired antibody was checked by western blotting.

Background: Trastuzumab is a humanized monoclonal antibody that targets site-specifically human epidermal growth factor-2 receptor (HER2) cell surface antigen overexpressed in approximately 20% of human breast carcinomas. Despite its positive therapeutic outcomes, a large proportion of individuals are unresponsive to the treatment with the trastuzumab or develop resistance to it.

Objective: To evaluate a chemically synthesized trastuzumab-based antibody-drug conjugate (ADC) to improve the trastuzumab therapeutic index.
