  • Publication number: 20180243451
    Abstract: Provided are immunoconjugate probes useful for detecting hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) lesions. The probes comprise a glypican-3 (GPC3)-specific monoclonal antibody or fragment thereof conjugated to a radionuclide such as 89Zr, 64Cu, and the like. The probes are useful for obtaining PET images with high tumor-to-liver ratios and targeting for diagnostic imaging of HCC lesions or cells in vitro and in vivo.

  • Patent number: 6858633
    Abstract: Substituted 2-phenylbenzazole compounds of formula (I) wherein X represents S or O and Q represents a direct bond, —CH2— or —CH?Ch—, exhibt selective antiproliferactive activity in respect of mammalian tumour cells. At least in preferred enbodiments the benzene ring of the benzazole nucleus has a halogen substituent, preferably flourine, and the 2-phenyl group has a 4?-amino substituent which may be conjugated with an amino acid to provide a water soluble amino acid amide prodrug or salt thereof.
