What are the Challenges Associated with Therapeutic Antibodies?
Despite their potential, there are several challenges associated with therapeutic antibodies: - Cost: The development and production of therapeutic antibodies are expensive. - Immunogenicity: There is a risk that the patient's immune system will recognize the therapeutic antibody as foreign and mount an immune response. - Resistance: Cancer cells and pathogens can develop resistance to therapeutic antibodies. - Delivery: Ensuring that the antibodies reach their target in sufficient quantities can be challenging.
