Coupling of photosensitizers to tumor-selective monoclonal antibodies (MAbs) is an attractive option for improving the selectivity of photodynamic therapy (PDT). For this purpose, hydrophilic sensitizers would be most suitable because of their solubility in water. However, such sensitizers are known
## Background and objective: To optimize photodynamic therapy, it is necessary to know the distribution of photosensitizer in normal tissue as well as tumors and to know how well animal models match human. this study measured the biodistribution of meta-tetra(hydroxyphenyl) chlorin (mthpc) in three
## Abstract ## Objective The Disease Activity Score (DAS) is widely used in clinical trials. A DAS of 5.1 defines the level of severe rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and is the criterion for the initiation of antiβtumor necrosis factor therapy in the UK and The Netherlands. In North America, similar rul
