Capromab pendetide

Identification

Summary

Capromab pendetide is a monoclonal anti-prostate specific membrane antigen antibody used in imaging kits to target radioactive agents to malignant prostate tissue.

Generic Name
Capromab pendetide
DrugBank Accession Number
DB00089
Background

Capromab is a Murine IgG1 monoclonal 7E11-C5.3 antibody that recognizes prostate specific membrane antigen (PSMA – also known as glutamate carboxypeptidase 2) from prostate cancer cells and normal prostate tissue. When linked to pendetide, capromab is used as a chelating agent for the radionuclide Indium In-111 during imaging to evaluate the extent of prostate cancer.

Pharmacodynamics

Binds to the prostate-specific membrane antigen, which is a cell surface protein generally overexpressed in prostate tissues and prostate cancers. The radioactive Indium 111, which is covalently attached to the antibody, allows radiodiagnostic detection of PSMA expressing cells and tumors.

Mechanism of action

Binds selectively to cell-surface prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) expressed on prostate tissues and tumors.

Metabolism

Most likely removed by opsonization via the reticuloendothelial system or by human antimurine antibody production

Route of elimination

Approximately 10% of the administered radioisotope dose is excreted in the urine during the 72 hours following intravenous infusion.
