Three monoclonal antibodies with either specificity to taxol or baccatin III, or cross-reactivity with several common taxanes have been prepared and used to develop sensitive competitive-inhibition enzyme immunoassays. The hybridomas producing these monoclonal antibodies were obtained by fusing
A rapid and sensitive indirect competitive inhibition enzyme immunoassay (CIEIA) method has been developed for quantitating taxanes in extracts of Taxus brevifolia Nutt. tissue and in human plasma. High titer rabbit polyclonal antibodies (pAb) were raised against a conjugate of 7-succinyltaxol and
Taxol (paclitaxel)--the natural product isolated from Pacific yew (Taxus brevifolia)--is a novel agent with high activity in the treatment of patients with several malignant tumors including those resistant to other cytotoxic drugs. The therapeutic index of this promising anticancer drug could be
