Anti-CD22 immunotoxin is a monoclonal antibody (to CD22) linked to a toxic substance. They are being studied in the treatment of some types of B-cell cancer.

They bind to CD22, a receptor protein on the surface of normal B cells and B-cell tumors, and, upon internalization, kill the cells.

Therapeutic immunotoxins that use Pseudomonas exotoxin [link]

As of August 2009, several anti-CD22 immunotoxins are undergoing clinical trials.

CAT-3888 and CAT-8015

CAT-3888, aka BL22, is an anti-CD22 immunotoxin and completed a Phase I clinical (human) trial for the treatment of hairy cell leukemia[1] at the NIH in the U.S.

Technically, CAT-3888 is an anti-CD22 immunotoxin fusion protein between a murine anti-CD22 disulfide-linked Fv (dsFv) antibody fragment and an edited copy of bacterial Pseudomonas exotoxin PE38. The toxin is activated intracellularly, by the low pH of the lysosome into which the entire protein was internalized via the CD22 receptor. The toxin kills the targeted cell through ribosome inactivation.[2].

CAT-3888 was initially designed and produced at the U.S. National Cancer Institute, one of the agencies which make up the NIH. Early development of BL22 was funded by California biotech Genencor.[3].

In 2001 results were reported of remissions in a phase I trial for leukemia.[4]

Like CAT-3888, CAT-8015 changes three amino acids in the antibody fragment to increase the binding affinity for the target molecule. Both of these proteins are designed to bind to the same part of the CD22 receptor on the surface of B cells.

It was succeeded by CAT-8015, aka HA22, an anti-CD22 immunotoxin comprising a modified Pseudomonas exotoxin and an anti-CD22 antibody fragment[5].

Research is being carried on directly by Dr. Robert J. Kreitman at the National Cancer Institute.[6] The patent holder is MedImmune, a subsidiary of AstraZeneca[7]. MedImmune discontinued development of CAT-3888 in 2008 and continues to develop CAT-8015.[8]

Early Phase I results find that CAT-8015 exhibits a greater affinity for CD22 than CAT-3888[9]. It may be useful against any B cell leukemia or lymphoma, and indeed is currently in a Phase I clinical trial, also at NIH, in patients with non-Hodgkin's lymphoma and chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL)[10][11][12].

Cambridge Antibody Technology acquired CAT-3888 and CAT-8015 in 2005 from Genencor, a subsidiary of Danisco[3] (where they were known as GCR-3888 and GCR-8015). [13]. CAT was then purchased in 2007 by British pharmaceutical company AstraZeneca for $15.2 billion[14] [15]. AstraZeneca consolidated its biologics portfolio in MedImmune and Cambridge Antibody Technology which was rebranded to create a dedicated biologics division known as 'MedImmune'[16].

CAT-5001

CAT-5001 (formerly SS1P) is a Pseudomonas exotoxin immunotoxin that targets mesothelin, which is a cell surface glycoprotein present on normal mesothelial cells that is overexpressed in numerous cancers including pleural and peritoneal mesothelioma, ovarian cancer and pancreatic cancer[5]. Cambridge Antibody Technology acquired CAT-5001 from Enzon Pharmaceuticals in May 2006[17].

Dat's What Dat Is

by: Paul Wall

Killer kill from the Ville, Killer Mike
In the motherfucking building nigga
Y'all already know, Killa kill putting it down
New South Movement, mo'fucker
New South Movement, South Lee Southwest Click
That's what that is pimp
Now loving, is the size of my shoe
And that's the new size that'll hold you, let your shit come through
See one deep I'm whooping clicks, gangs
With my 50 Cal. click bang, I'm gangsta walking with that trick aim
My nuts hang, like D-boys on the corner
And I could send a bitch nigga, a Bengal like Ty Warner
I'm standing on a soap box, preaching the gospel
On how you should move them coke rocks, and protect yo glocks
And turn your projects, into Ft. Knox
It just a fo' night, with two 44 glocks
Now rise and shine it's a kick do', for your pies and pine
I'm riding off in the sunset, the horizon's mine
Everybody dies in time, but how will you pass
In a million dollar mansion, or dead broke on your ass
Think fast, cause your number is coming up
And ain't no second chances, when the killers is running up
I step into the club, in a fresh white T
Looking for a one night wife, to delight me
A lot of dudes claim, to be gangsta like Ice-T
When in actuality, they sweeter than ice tea
Get your weight up homie, only the strong survive
Get off the bus and pay your dues, you don't belong on this ride
I'm a full time playa, all about my hustle
Demonstrating my muscle, if I get in a tussle
If you got plex, I suggest you keep it hush-hush
Cause boys wet up on that water, and you might get bust
I got to stay up on my note, so my game is sharper
I can't be wiped out, I'm like a permanent marker
Boys mean mugging in the club, repping they hood
It's understood but cross that line, homie it ain't good
It's survival of the fittest, I'm the last one breathing
While you in your bed sleeping, I'm still out here creeping
Take your ass to church nigga, if you wanna learn better
Join Mase and Bethle-fuck him, I'm trying to get cheddar
My stack will clearly show, my talent for moving blow
And it's gangsta music, so fuck the status quote
Grown men talking, who let the children in
Get the nine to spit it in, leave him smelling like chit-lens
I ain't playing I ain't joking, I'm rolling loaded and open
It's best you not provoking, this man when he pistol toting
The 4-fiftha, will tuck turn toss twist you
Split you right down the middle, like a brand new swisha
When the bullet hit you nigga, it rip and tear tissue
Bullet bang, turn brains into baby batter
Turn great matter, into antimatter
Fuck your chitter-chatter, who's good better best badder
Let the shotgun splitter splatter, who it hit child or bitch
It don't matter, niggaz just handling bis'
Primetime guerilla gang, get his what it is
Last but not least, it's H.A. Dub
Buckshot slugs, you covered in blood
Feel me cuz, or get drug in the mud
By these Texas thugs, who really don't show no love
That's what it is nigga, handle your bis nigga
This ain't your year nigga, I'll split your wig nigga
Take a sqwig nigga, this is the new South
We coming hola, so what you talking bout
You niggaz still learning, we got they heads turning
We got the streets burning, this is a street sermon
That's what it is dummy, you niggaz chasing honey
