| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We were conducting research with the aim of development of antibody drug as an ideal treatment for advanced hepatocellular carcinoma. We used anti-FGFR-1 monoclonal antibody has been prepared, a significant anti-cancer effect against liver cancer cells in vitro and in vivo, have been clarified. Furthermore, so as to exert a more potent anti-cancer effect, a molecular alteration is added to the antibody to prepare a triple-specific human antibodies. Using a triple-specific human antibody that was created, we examined the ADCC activity in vitro and in vivo. To date, it has not been possible to obtain the expected ADCC activity. Currently, further subjected to molecular modifications are conducting research towards the silkworm antibody preparation.
