Tusamitamab ravtansine
Based on 1 publication(s) in Google Scholar
Tusamitamab ravtansine (SAR-408701) is a targeted ADC against tumor cells expressing CEACAM5, composed of a humanized anti-CEACAM5 monoclonal antibody covalently linked to the potent cytotoxic agent, maytansinoid DM4 (HY-12454), via a cleavable linker. Tusamitamab ravtansine has an average drug-to-antibody ratio (DAR) of 3.8.

Biological Activity
Description
In Vitro
The antibody component of SAR408701 binds to the extracellular domain of CEACAM5, initiating the internalization of the ADC into the tumor cell, followed by the subsequent release of DM4 within the cytoplasm. DM4 elicits its cytotoxic effects by disrupting microtubule assembly, inducing cell cycle arrest, and initiating apoptosis[1].

Cell Viability Determination by MTT Colorimetric Assay
The following protocol uses the MTT colorimetric assay as a classic literature-established method for assessing cell viability/metabolic activity in cultured mammalian cells. MTT[3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide] is reduced by metabolically active cells to a colored formazan product; the amount of formazan is quantified spectrophotometrically and provides an indirect measure of metabolically active viable cells. Importantly, MTT reduction reflects cellular oxidoreductase/metabolic activity rather than an absolute direct count of living cells, so changes in cellular metabolism can alter the signal independently of cell number.
