ABSTRACT
In recent years, there has been a frequent occurrence of various epidemics worldwide such as COVID-19, monkeypox, influenza, and others additionally, there has been an increase in the number of new patients diagnosed with various types of tumors. Traditional drugs have limited effectiveness against emerging infectious diseases, tumors, and autoimmune diseases. However, with the emergence of hybridoma technology, monoclonal antibodies have achieved extensive applications and antibody drugs are playing an important role in modern medicine. Monoclonal antibodies have undergone various development stages, starting from mouse-derived antibodies to human-mouse chimeric antibodies, humanized antibodies, and ultimately human antibodies. Throughout this process, their immunogenicity has gradually decreased, while their safety for human use steadily increased. Fully human antibodies are currently the safest form of antibody, because their sequences all come from human sources and they do not induce human anti-murine antibody reactions. With the advance of genetic engineering technology, flow cytometry coupled to single B cell gene amplification technology has made it easier to construct and screen for fully human monoclonal antibodies. The development of antibody drugs has provided new opportunities, and the market for monoclonal antibody drugs will further expand. This article reviews the research progress of monoclonal antibodies and presents information on the 163 monoclonal antibody drugs approved by the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) as of Oct 1st, 2023. The aim is to offer new insights for the development and production of monoclonal antibodies in China.
