Preferred Label : Anti-TAG-72 Monoclonal Antibody scFV CC-49/218;
NCIt synonyms : CC49-218 sFv;
NCIt definition : An immunoglobulin derived from the single-chain antigen-binding domain (sFv) of the
monoclonal antibody CC-49 with potential antineoplastic activity. The parent monoclonal
antibody CC-49 binds to the tumor-associated glycoprotein TAG-72 with high affinity,
recognizing many tumor cell types that express TAG-72. Because of its single-chain
structure, CC-49/218 sFv may exhibit a longer half-life than the parent monoclonal
antibody CC-49; 218 represents the linker sequence that helps reduce aggregation and
proteolysis of this agent. (NCI04);
NCIt note : Single-chain Fv construct of CC49 monoclonal antibody containing a linker sequence
218 that targets tumor-associated glycoprotein (TAG)-72;
Origin ID : C28880;
