Blinatumomab linking a T cell to a malignant B cell. Blinatumomab is a bispecific T-cell engager (BiTE). [7] It enables a patient's T cells to recognize malignant B cells. A molecule of blinatumomab combines two binding sites: a CD3 site for T cells and a CD19 site for the target B cells. CD3 is part of the T cell receptor.
Blinatumomab links T cells with CD19 receptors found on the surface of B cells. The Food and Drug Administration (US) and the European Medicines Agency approved this therapy for adults with Philadelphia chromosome-negative relapsed or refractory acute lymphoblastic leukemia.

[4] [5]In March 2024, the FDA approved inotuzumab ozogamicin for the treatment of children aged one year and older with relapsed or refractory CD22-positive B-cell precursor acute lymphoblastic leukemia.
Teclistamab, sold under the brand name Tecvayli, is a human bispecific monoclonal antibody used for the treatment of relapsed and refractory multiple myeloma. [8] It is a bispecific antibody that targets the CD3 receptor expressed on the surface of T-cells and B-cell maturation antigen (), which is expressed on the surface of malignant multiple myeloma B-lineage cells.
Chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting (CINV) is a common side-effect of many cancer treatments. Nausea and vomiting are two of the most feared cancer treatment-related side effects for cancer patients and their families.
Zanidatamab, sold under the brand name Ziihera, is a humanized monoclonal antibody used for the treatment of HER2-positive biliary tract cancer. [1] [2] It is an IgG-like bispecific HER2-directed antibody directed against two non-overlapping domains of HER2.
A general dot blot protocol involves spotting 1–2 microliters of a samples onto a nitrocellulose or PVDF membrane and letting it air dry. Samples can be in the form of tissue culture supernatants, blood serum, cell extracts, or other preparations. [4]
