Research abstract
WE WILL ACHIEVE THE SELECTIVE DELIVERY OF CYTOTOXIC AGENTS THROUGH THE USE OF BISPECIFIC ANTIBODIES. TAXOL IS A PROMISING NEW ANTICANCER AGENT ISOLATED IN LOW YIELD FROM THE BARK OF THE PACIFIC YEW TREE, TAXUS BREVIFOLIA. THE APPLICANT WILL PREPARE A THIOETHER-LINKED BISPECIFIC ANTIBODY WITH DIAL SPECIFICITY FOR TAXOL AND HUMAN CANCER CELLS. IT IS ASSERTED THAT THIS BISPECIFIC ANTIBODY WILL POTENTIATE THE ACTION OF TAXOL IN TARGET TISSUE, MINIMIZE SIDE-EFFECTS, AND REDUCE THE TOTAL AMOUNT OF TAXOL REQUIRED FOR EFFECTIVE THERAPY.
