  • Patent number: 12054550
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to bispecific antibodies targeting EGFR and HER2, and methods for the production of these antibodies. The bispecific antibodies consist of one complete antibody on which two VH-VL chains are attached via a linker to each NH terminal region of both VH chains of the antibody. The bispecific antibodies constructed use the amino acid sequences of the heavy chain (VH) and the light chain (VL) variable regions of two monoclonal antibodies targeting EGFR and HER2, namely cetuximab and trastuzumab, respectively.

  • Publication number: 20090271207
    Abstract: An enhanced delivery system (300) for field service providers is disclosed. In its simplest form, the delivery system (300), can comprise the steps of: granting (305) permission to a service provider to provide a designated service at an assigned location; traveling (310) to the assigned location to provide a service; remotely actuating (315) an access point to gain access to a restricted area; accessing (320) the restricted area through the access point; providing (325) a service in connection with the restricted area; and closing (330) the access point after accessing the restricted area. The system (300) facilitates and simplifies access to restricted areas, and contributes to routinizing the service process for enhanced efficiencies.
