Antibody with Infinite Affinity for In Vivo Tracking of Genetically Engineered Lymphocytes

There remains an urgent need for the noninvasive tracking of transfused chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cells to determine their biodistribution, viability, expansion, and antitumor functionality. DOTA antibody reporter 1 (DAbR1) comprises a single-chain fragment of the antilanthanoid-DOTA antibody 2D12.5/G54C fused to the human CD4-transmembrane domain and binds irreversibly to lanthanoid (S)-2-(4-acrylamidobenzyl)-DOTA (AABD).
