Tri-functional Imaging Agent for
Monoclonal Antibody Tumor-Targeted
Imaging
Description of Technology: This is a
novel lysine-based trifunctional chelate
which bears both a chelating moiety
(CHX-A″) for sequestering radiometals
(86Y or 111In) and a near-infrared dye,
e.g., Cy5.5, for dual modality PET (or
SPECT) and fluorescence imaging.
Successful conjugation of monoclonal
antibody trastuzumab (Herceptin) or
cetuximab (Erbitux), has also been
achieved by efficient thiol-maleimide
chemistry, thereby yielding an
immunoconjugate (Signaling agent
(Cy5.5-Lys(SMCC)-CHX-A″) conjugated
to trastuzumab) or (Signaling agent
(Cy7-Lys(SMCC)-CHX-A″) conjugated to
cetuximab). Both specifically target
antigen expressing cells and
internalization of the agent has been
imaged over time. Trastuzumab can be
radiolabeled with isothiocyanate
derivatives of the bifunctional chelating
agents 1B4M (2-(4-aminobenzy1)-6methyldiethylenetriaminepentaacetic
acid); and CHX-A″ (N-[(R)-2-amino-3-(paminophenyl)propyl]-trans-(S,S)cyclohexane-1,2-diamine-N,N,N′,N″,N″pentaacetic acid).
Potential Commercial Applications:
• Cancer imaging.
• Cancer diagnostics.
Competitive Advantages:
• Target specific.
• Multifunctional (imageable through
multiple platforms).
Development Stage:
• Early-stage.
• In vivo data available (animal).

Background and Purpose
Volume III of the Marine Safety
Manual (MSM) provides information
and interpretations on international
conventions and U.S. statutory and

industry personnel. The last revisions to
Volume III of the MSM were released on
May 27, 1999. This notice updates
portions of chapters 20 through 26.
Specifically, substantive changes
include: (1) Updated provisions for
vessel manning, including guidance for
the issuing of safe manning documents;
(2) clarifying roles, responsibilities, and
facilitation of communications with the
appropriate offices at Coast Guard
Headquarters in alignment with Deputy
Commandant for Operations
Organization 3.0; and (3) revised
discussion on the impact of multiple
international standards, including the
Officer’s Competency Certificates
Convention (OCCC) 1936, the
International Convention for Safety of
Life at Sea (SOLAS), the Global
Maritime Distress and Safety System
(GMDSS), and the Principles of
Minimum Safe Manning (IMO
Resolution A.1047(27)). Additionally,
this draft clarifies the applicability of
tonnage measurement systems to U.S.
flag vessels, and it also includes changes
resulting from the consolidation of
merchant mariner qualification
credentials, including the removal of
