NCIt synonyms : Zr-89 Anti-CD8 Antibody ZED88082A; 89Zr Anti-CD8 Antibody ZED88082A; Zirconium Zr 89-labeled Anti-CD8 Imaging Agent ZED88082A;
NCIt definition : A radioimmunoconjugate consisting of an antibody targeting the human CD8 antigen on
CD8-positive (CD8 ) T-cells and labeled with the radioisotope zirconium Zr 89, with
potential imaging activity using positron emission tomography (PET). Upon administration,
the antibody moiety of ZED88082A specifically targets and binds to the CD8 antigen
expressed on T-cells. This allows for visualization of CD8 T-cells upon imaging using
PET. CD8 T cells are effector cells involved in the immune response against tumor
cells and play a key role in the eradication of tumor cells.;
