Formulation
This biosimilar antibody is aseptically packaged and formulated in 0.01 M phosphate buffered saline (150 mM NaCl) PBS pH 7.2 - 7.4 with no carrier protein, potassium, calcium or preservatives added.
Product Preparation
Functional grade preclinical antibodies are manufactured in an animal free facility using only In vitro protein free cell culture techniques and are purified by a multi-step process including the use of protein A or G to assure extremely low levels of endotoxins, leachable protein A or aggregates.
Pathogen Testing
To protect mouse colonies from infection by pathogens and to assure that experimental preclinical data is not affected by such pathogens, all of Leinco’s recombinant biosimilar antibodies are tested and guaranteed to be negative for all pathogens in the IDEXX IMPACT I Mouse Profile.
Storage and Handling
Functional grade biosimilar antibodies may be stored sterile as received at 2-8°C for up to one month. For longer term storage, aseptically aliquot in working volumes without diluting and store at -80°C. Avoid Repeated Freeze Thaw Cycles.

Description
Specificity
This non-therapeutic biosimilar antibody uses the same variable region sequence as the therapeutic antibody Drozitumab. Clone PRO95780 recognizes human death receptor 5 (DR5). This product is for research use only.
Antigen Distribution
DR5 is widely expressed in adult and fetal tissues, with notably high expression on tumor cells.
Background
Drozitumab is a monoclonal antibody that specifically binds to human DR5. DR5 is expressed in a variety of solid tumors and hematologic malignancies, which are characteristically resistant to apoptosis. Drozitumab is a proapoptotic receptor agonists (PARA) that induces apoptosis in a variety of human cancer cell lines and xenograft models, both alone and in tandem with other antineoplastic agents.1 Apoptosis of cancer cells triggered by the activation of DR5, occurs without affecting most normal cell types. Anti-Human DR5 (Drozitumab) utilizes the same variable regions from the therapeutic antibody Drozitumab making it ideal for research projects.
