Bio-Rad, HCA182, Bevacizumab antibody | AbD17976

Human Anti-Bevacizumab Antibody , clone AbD17976 is a paratope specific, recombinant, anti-idiotypic antibody that specifically recognizes the monoclonal antibody drug bevacizumab and inhibits the binding of the drug to its target, vascular endothelial growth factor A (VEGF-A). The antibody can be used to measure the levels of free bevacizumab and biosimilar products using bioanalytical assays. A pair of anti-bevacizumab antibodies can be used to develop a pharmacokinetic (PK) bridging ELISA to measure free drug. This antibody, in monovalent Fab format, is recommended as the capture antibody, paired with Anti-Bevacizumab Antibody in full immunoglobulin format, clone AbD16748_hIgG1 ( HCA184P ) as the detection antibody. Bevacizumab (reference product branded as Avastin) is a humanized monoclonal antibody (IgG1/kappa) that inhibits angiogenesis by binding to VEGF-A. VEGF-A is a potent stimulator of angiogenesis of both normal and cancerous cells, and acts as a regulator of vasculogenesis. Bevacizumab is used to treat various cancers, including colorectal, lung, breast, glioblastoma, kidney and ovarian. View a summary of all Anti-Bevacizumab Antibodies.
