Enlyton combines antibodies with contrast agents to produce tumor images that are more precise. Its lead product is ENL210, a bioengineered anti-TAG-72 (tumor-associated glycoprotein) antibody fragment labeled with iodine-123. The product targets a broad family of solid tumors known as adenocarcinomas.
