Abstract
Antibodies to a therapeutic agent and its derivatives and conjugates are disclosed, including antibodies to argatroban and its derivatives and conjugates. The antibodies are useful as reagents in assays and diagnostic kits for determining the concentration of a therapeutic agent or its derivatives and conjugates in biological samples, and further have therapeutic uses in treatment for potential toxicity associated with stable therapeutic conjugates and derivatives, both in vivo and ex vivo.
