EPR Characterisation of Phthalocyanine Radical Anions in Near‐Infrared Photocleavage of the Hydrophilic Axial Ligand of a Photoimmunotherapeutic Reagent, IR700 [PDF]
AbstractPhotoimmunotherapy (PIT) is a novel cancer therapy that utilises tumour‐specific monoclonal antibodies coupled with a silicon phthalocyanine derivative with biaxial ligands (IR700). Near‐infrared (NIR)‐induced cleavage of these axial ligands induces the aggregation of IR700 on the cell membrane, resulting in cell death.

Near infrared photoimmunotherapy targeting DLL3 for small cell lung cancer
Background: Small cell lung cancer (SCLC) has a poor prognosis, and its treatment options are limited. Delta-like protein 3 (DLL3) is expressed specifically in SCLC and is considered a promising therapeutic target for patients with this disease ...

Abstract 480: Molecular mechanism of action of photoimmunotherapy with antibody-IR700 dye conjugates
Abstract INTRODUCTION: Cancer cell-targeted photoimmunotherapy (PIT) is a platform technology under development for the treatment of various cancers. PIT is a drug and device combination that utilizes an antibody conjugated to the IR700 (IRDye 700DX®) light-excitable dye, which upon antigen binding and illumination with non-thermal red ...

Photoimmunotherapy targeting biliary‐pancreatic cancer with humanized anti‐TROP2 antibody
Photoimmunotherapy (PIT) is a new type of tumor‐specific treatment utilizing monoclonal antibody (mAb)‐photosensitizer conjugates and near‐infrared (NIR) light irradiation. One potential PIT target, the type I transmembrane protein TROP2, is expressed at
