6. Tumour Targeting using Radiolabelled Affibody Molecules : Influence of Labelling Chemistry
Sammanfattning : Affibody molecules are promising candidates for targeted radionuclide-based imaging and therapy applications. Optimisation of targeting properties would permit the in vivo visualization of cancer-specific surface receptors with high contrast. In therapy, this may increase the ratio of radioactivity uptake between tumour and normal tissues. LÄS MER
7. EGFR- and HER2-Binding Affibody Molecules : Cellular studies of monomeric, dimeric and bispecific ligands
Sammanfattning : Abnormal expression and signaling of the ErbB receptors is associated with the development and progression of several forms of cancer. In this thesis, new ErbB-targeting affibody molecules are evaluated regarding their cellular effects in vitro. LÄS MER
8. Radiolabeled HER-2 Binding Affibody Molecules for Tumor Targeting : Preclinical Studies
Sammanfattning : Conventional cancer treatment based on radiotherapy or chemotherapy affects all dividing cells. By directing the therapy specifically to the tumor cells, normal cells can be spared. Tumor targeting molecules carrying a cytotoxic moiety is then an attractive approach. LÄS MER
9. Radiolabelled affibody molecules for imaging EGFR expression in tumours
Sammanfattning : Affibody molecules are promising scaffold-based targeting proteins for radionuclide imaging and cancer therapy. This thesis is based on 5 original research articles (Papers I-V), with the primary focus being placed on the optimization of molecular design of EGFR-binding affibody variants for high contrast imaging of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) expression in tumours.

10. Affibody Molecules for HER3-targeted Theranostics of Malignant Tumours
Sammanfattning : The HER3 receptor plays a strong role in disease progression and resistance to therapies in several cancer types. Due to its endogenous expression and low overexpression in malignant tumours, it is a particularly challenging target. LÄS MER
