IMMUNOCONJUGATES

摘要

The present invention relates to new fusion proteins which consist of atumor-associated targeting element preferentially a monoclonal antibody or a fragment thereof recognizing a molecule which is preferentially expressed on human tumor cells such as the human epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR), and a biologically active ligand such as a growth and/or differentiation factor. The resulting fusion protein may be used to deliver the biologically active ligand to a specific target cell or tissue. The new immunoconjugates can be used in tumor therapy.
