AI Technical Summary
Current therapies for cancer, particularly those targeting ABCB5+ tumor cells, face challenges due to drug resistance mediated by the ABCB5 transporter, which confers resistance to chemotherapeutic agents and limits treatment efficacy.
Development of antibodies specifically binding to ATP-binding cassette transporter family member B5 (ABCB5) with enhanced binding affinity and specificity, capable of inducing antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity, phagocytosis, and inhibiting signal transduction processes, as well as their use in antibody-drug conjugates and chimeric antigen receptor (CAR)-modified immune cells to target ABCB5+ cells.
The antibodies effectively reduce tumor growth and enhance treatment outcomes by specifically targeting ABCB5+ cells, overcoming drug resistance and enhancing immune response against cancer.
