NCIt definition : A formulation composed of nanoparticles derived from the human papillomavirus (HPV-NPs)
and conjugated to the infrared (IR)-activated fluorescent dye IR700 (IR-700), with
potential antineoplastic activity. Upon intravitreal injection of belzupacap sarotalocan,
the HPV-NPs target and bind to heparan-sulfated proteoglycans (HSPG) expressed by
ocular melanoma cells. Upon irradiation with near-IR (NIR) light, the photosensitizer
IR700 becomes activated, generates reactive oxygen species (ROS) and selectively damages
the melanoma cell membrane, which induces necrosis of the melanoma cells while sparing
the surrounding, healthy non-HSPG-expressing tissue, and potentially preserving vision.
HSPGs are overexpressed on a variety of cancer cell types.;
