1. Engineering Antibody Specificity Using Combinatorial Antibody Libraries
Abstract : The research presented in this thesis investigates antibody specificity, antibody-antigen and protein-protein interactions using combinatorial antibody libraries, phage-display and bacterial display technology. One goal was to develop a method to generate antibodies that bind two protein antigens with high affinity using a single-antigen binding site, and to investigate the molecular and thermodynamic requirements for antibody multispecificity.

2. Development and evaluation of analytical techniques for antibodies and antibody-drug conjugates : From verification of conjugation to stability testing
Abstract : Antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) are becoming increasingly important in oncology. ADCs are inherently heterogeneous analytes. For a successful drug candidate to go through to the clinic, extensive characterization and evaluation of the constructs are necessary. READ MORE

3. Targeted Therapy of Colorectal Cancer : Preclinical Evaluation of a Radiolabelled Antibody
Abstract : Targeted radiotherapy (TRT) of cancer is a promising approach that enables selective treatment of tumour cells, while sparing normal tissue. The humanized monoclonal antibody A33 (huA33) is a potential targeting agent for TRT of colorectal cancer, since its antigen is expressed in more than 95 % of all colorectal carcinomas. READ MORE

4. Alpha-Synuclein Oligomers : Cellular Mechanisms and Aspects of Antibody Treatment
Abstract : In Parkinson’s disease (PD) and dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB), aggregated α-synuclein deposit inside cells within the brain. Smaller soluble α-synuclein aggregates, oligomers, are present both intra- and extracellularly. READ MORE

5. Immunomodulatory Therapy of Solid Tumors : With a Focus on Monoclonal Antibodies
Abstract : Cancer, historically considered a genetic disease, is currently acknowledged to affect the whole body. Our immune system is one key player that can elicit a response against malignant cells but can also promote tumorigenesis. Tumors avoid immune recognition by creating a suppressive microenvironment and inducing tolerance. READ MORE
