F3 and non-small cell lung carcinoma: Since CD13 is an antigen suitable for molecular targeted therapies (e.g. tTF-NGR induced tumor vascular infarction), we evaluated its impact in NSCLC patients, and tested the effects of the CD13-targeted fusion protein tTF-NGR (truncated tissue factor (tTF) containing the NGR motif: asparagine-glycine-arginine) in vivo in nude mice.
