Abstract
Mycograb C28Y is a recombinant human antibody fragment thought to target HSP-90 and potentiate amphotericin B (AMB). Absence of in vivo efficacy led us to reevaluate its in vitro activity. Interactions between AMB and Mycograb were investigated using a checkerboard design. Addition of Mycograb or various unrelated proteins, including human serum, resulted in similar decreases in the MIC of AMB. Potentiation of AMB by Mycograb appears to be a nonspecific protein effect.Entities:
