Antibodies are an essential part of the immune system in vertebrates. Their generation involves a random mutation and rearrangement process and they can be in principle directed against any biological compound. In the last years biotechnological processes have been developed allowing for the selection of any antibody with a specific target and the subsequent large scale production of this antibody. This most comprehensive reference source for the development, production and therapeutic application of antibodies is now available as a paperback edition. It includes general chapters presenting established technologies and clinical applications, chapters on emerging technologies, new therapeutic concepts, and clinical studies and detailed and specific information about currently approved therapeutic antibodies, including clinical data. This is a must-have resource for academic researchers and decision makers in the industry, as well as healthcare professionals in the clinic.
