Description
Human Anti-Atezolizumab Antibody, clone AbD40992ia is a paratope specific, inhibitory anti-idiotypic antibody (Type 1) that specifically recognizes the free monoclonal antibody drug atezolizumab. It does not recognize the drug target, Programmed Cell Death Ligand 1 (PD-L1), nor atezolizumab in complex with PD-L1. The antibody can be used to measure levels of free atezolizumab in patient samples. Clone AbD40992ia is a fully human recombinant monoclonal antibody with IgG1 isotype. It can be used in a direct or indirect ELISA, or as a detection reagent for atezolizumab in a PK bridging ELISA together with TZA011 (AbD40638ad) as the capture reagent, or to develop and calibrate anti drug antibody (ADA) assays to measure the ADA response in patient sera together with HCA380 and HCA382 .This antibody has a monovalent intrinsic affinity of 1.4 nM. Atezolizumab (Tecentriq) is a human monoclonal IgG1 antibody that binds directly to Programmed Death Ligand 1 (PD-L1, CD274) and provides a dual blockade of both the PD-1 and B7.1 receptors on T-cells and antigen presenting cells. It is one of the named “checkpoint inhibitor” drugs. PD-L1/PD-1 mediated inhibition of the immune response is thereby released, including reactivation of the anti-tumour immune response without induction of antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity. The drug is used to treat urothelial carcinoma, non-small cell lung cancer, triple-negative breast cancer, small cell lung cancer and hepatocellular carcinoma. It is used either on its own or in combination for cancers which are advanced or metastatic. View a summary of all anti-atezolizumab antibodies
Storage Information
This product is shipped at ambient temperature. It is recommended to aliquot and store at -20°C on receipt. When thawed, aliquot the sample as needed. Keep aliquots at 2-8°C for short term use (up to 4 weeks) and store the remaining aliquots at -20°C.
Avoid repeated freezing and thawing as this may denature the antibody. Storage in frost-free freezers is not recommended.
