Abstract
AbstractTwo different methods (reduction mediated and carbonyl labelling) for conjugating 188Re to an anti‐tumour monoclonal antibody are described. The radioimmunoconjugates produced were analysed for stability, immunoreactivity, specificity and homogeneity. This indicated that although the two conjugates were comparable in terms of specificity and homogeneity, the carbonyl labelled preparation was more stable. Tumour localisation of both conjugates was confirmed in an ex vivo model of bladder cancer. It is concluded that although both radioimmunoconjugates have potential for intravesical therapy of bladder cancer, carbonyl labelling may offer a method with increased stability.
