In vitro saturation study of gallium-67 and zirconium-89 labelled monoclonal antibody ramucirumab on SKOV-3 cell line
Holodňáková, Nikola ; Bárta, Pavel (advisor) ; Smutná, Lucie (referee)
Charles University Faculty of Pharmacy in Hradec Králové Department of Biophysics and Physical Chemistry Student: Nikola Holodňáková Supervisor: Mgr. Pavel Bárta, Ph.D. Name of the work: In vitro saturation study of gallium-67 and zirconium-89 labelled monoclonal antibody ramucirumab on SKOV-3 cell line. Targeted biological treatment becomes more and more important with the development of a new therapy in oncology. It stimulates immune system to eliminate cancer cells. Significant progress has been made since the introduction of monoclonal antibodies. They represent one of the newest possibility used in diagnosis and treatment of tumours. The ability of the monoclonal antibody ramucirumab is to recognize and bind specifically to tumour cell antigens such as the VEGF type 2 receptor (VEGFR-2) and thus to supress angiogenic process. Anti-angiogenic ramucirumab inhibits this receptor via blocking of VEGF binding sites, which prevents the growth of tumours. It is possible to increase antitumor effect of monoclonal antibodies by their combination with other molecules like radionuclides, toxins and cytostatics when forming the so called conjugates. Prepared immunoconjugates serve as diagnostic and therapeutic tools also in Nuclear Medicine. The aim of the experimental work in was the preparation of...

v anglickom jazyku Charles University in Prague Faculty of Pharmacy in Hradec Králové Department of Biophysics and Physical Chemistry Student: František Lach Supervisor: Mgr. Pavel Bárta, PhD Consultant: Mgr. Lucie Hyršová Title of diploma thesis: In vitro saturation study of 99m Tc-HYNIC-ramucirumab on PC-3 cell line The number of malignant tumours in the population has increased in recent years. Due to the frequent serious sides effects of chemotherapeutic drugs on the whole organism, targeted antitumor therapy is at the forefront. Due to its specific effect on the regulatory and signal pathways of protein structures, monoclonal antibodies are used for the target anti-tumour therapy. The basic properties of the growing tumour include vasculogenesis (the ability to build new blood vessels from the endothelial precursors) and angiogenesis (the process of self-inducing formation of blood vessels). Endothelial tumour progenitors include vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF). VEGF activates its biological activity by binding to its transmembrane tyrosine-kinase receptors VEGFR. Indeed, the inhibition of the vascular endothelial factor receptors is the target of some monoclonal antibodies. Ramucirumab is a monoclonal antibody that selectively inhibits VEGF receptor type 2 (VEGFR-2) and thereby...
Study of effects of tyrosine kinase inhibitors and their metabolites on tumour cell lines
Kolárik, Matúš ; Indra, Radek (advisor) ; Vinklářová, Lucie (referee)
Vandetanib, lenvatinib and cabozantinib are inhibitors of receptor tyrosine kinases approved to treat locally advanced or metastatic thyroid gland, kidney and liver cancers. These multi- kinase inhibitors, inhibit phosphorylation of tyrosine moieties of protein, thus modulate cell signalization in cancer cells. Metabolites of vandetanib, lenvatinib and cabozantinib were detected in vitro as well as in vivo in blood and urine. Cytochromes P450 and flavin monooxygenases were identified as primary enzymes participating in metabolism of these drugs. Literature lacks information regarding pharmacological efficacy of vandetanib, lenvatinib and cabozantinib metabolites. The aim of this diploma thesis was the investigation of pharmacological efficacy of N-oxides of vandetanib, lenvatinib and cabozantinib. The viability measurement under normoxic and hypoxic conditions was employed to determined their efficacy. The expression of enzymes of the first phase of xenobiotics metabolism (CYP 450 1A1, 1B1, 3A4 a CYP 450 oxidoreductase) and receptor tyrosine kinases RET and VEGFR2, as well as mechanism of changes in their expression were investigated using western blotting and flow cytometry. High performance liquid chromatography was utilised to investigate possible metabolism of tyrosine kinase inhibitors and...

In vitro saturation study of 99mTc-HYNIC-ramucirumab on SKOV3 cell line
Klimová, Juliána ; Bárta, Pavel (advisor) ; Maixnerová, Jana (referee)
v anglickom jazyku Charles University in Prague Faculty of Pharmacy in Hradec Králové Department of Biophysics and Physical Chemistry Student: Juliána Klimová Supervisor: Mgr. Pavel Bárta, Ph.D. Name of the work: In vitro saturation study of 99m Tc-HYNIC-ramucirumab on SKOV3 cell line. The passive immunotherapy is based on the use of already active immune system components (monoclonal antibodies), which play an important role in cancer cells elimination in the organism. The active immunotherapy tries to stimulate an active anticancer response via an appropriate form of an immunization. When monoclonal antibodies bind to cancer cells, those cells become a selected target for the following removal. The enhancement of the anti- cancer affect of monoclonal antibodies is possible due to the attachment of therapeutic agents like cytostatics, toxins and radionuclides. This presented master thesis is focused on the radiolabeling of the monoclonal antibody ramucirumab, which is directed against the vascular endothelial growth factor type 2 (VEGFR 2), which is often present in cells of some types of cancerous diseases. Within the experimental work, at first, there was a conjugation of chelating agent succinimidyl-6-hydrazino-nicotinamide (HYNIC) on the monoclonal antibody. After this step, radionuclide 99m...
