Monoclonal antibodies against several human leucocyte cell surface antigens were prepared and characterized: B2M-02, a non-cytotoxic antibody against beta-2-microglobulin; MEM-09 and MEM-40, against immunoglobulin kappa-type light chains; MEM-12, MEM-24G and MEM-32B, all against a monomorphic determinant in MHC class II antigens, presumably HLA-DR, dependent on the association of alpha and beta chains; MEM-15 and MEM-18, against a monocyte antigen of 55 kDa; MEM-28, against a 200 kDa antigen expressed on all leucocytes; MEM-31, against the T8 antigen of the cytotoxic/suppressor T-lymphocyte subpopulation; MEM-32, against the T1 antigen of T lymphocytes.

Analytical and Clinical Validation of the Plasma-Based Guardant360 CDx Test for Assessing HER2 (ERBB2) Mutation Status in Patients with Non-Small-Cell Lung Cancer for Treatment with Trastuzumab Deruxtecan in DESTINY-Lung01/02.

This study demonstrates the analytical and clinical validity of the approved (United States and Japan) plasma-based Guardant360 companion diagnostic (CDx) test for selecting patients with human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2 [ERBB2])-mutated (HER2m) non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) for trastuzumab deruxtecan (T-DXd) treatment. Concordance between the Guardant360 CDx test and the plasma-based AVENIO ctDNA Expanded Kit Assay (AVENIO), as well as the tissue-based clinical trial assays (CTAs) was investigated. Clinical utility was assessed by comparing T-DXd clinical efficacy results of patients in DESTINY-Lung01/02 who tested positive for HER2 mutations using the Guardant360 CDx test to benchmark efficacy results from DESTINY-Lung01/02.

Objective: To compare work loss after starting tumour necrosis factor inhibitors (TNFi), rituximab, abatacept or tocilizumab in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA).
Methods: We used data from the Swedish Rheumatology Quality Register to identify patients aged 19-62 years who were treated with TNFi (n=15 093), rituximab (n=2123), abatacept (n=1877) or tocilizumab (n=1720) between 2007 and 2020. Data on work loss (0-365 days per year) from sick leave and disability pension were retrieved from linkage to the Social Insurance Agency.

Background: Natalizumab is a humanized monoclonal antibody administered at a fixed dose of 300 mg intravenously or subcutaneously every 4-6 weeks to treat relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis. In this prospective cross-sectional study, natalizumab serum concentrations obtained during routine healthcare were measured, and the relationships between different routes of administration, sampling times, body characteristics, changes in blood count, and presence of anti-natalizumab antibodies were evaluated.
Methods: Ninety-two patients were included in this study.

Antibody-drug conjugates (ADC) have emerged as an important class of therapeutic agents that combine the target specificity of a monoclonal antibody with the potency of a cytotoxic payload. Despite clinical success, our understanding of receptor endocytosis and ADC toxicity remains limited. Less than 1% of ADCs reach tumors, raising concerns about off-target cytotoxicity.

P-cadherin, a crucial cell-cell adhesion protein which is overexpressed in numerous malignant cancers, is a popular target for drug delivery antibodies. However, molecular guidelines for engineering antibodies that can be internalized upon binding to P-cadherin are unknown. Here, we use a combination of biophysical, biochemical, and cell biological methods to demonstrate that trapping the P-cadherin extracellular region in an X-dimer adhesive conformation triggers cadherin endocytosis via an outside-in signaling mechanism.
