Data from animal models and patients strongly suggest that neutrophils are central to disease progression. However no bedside methods exist to rapidly and accurately determine in seriously ill patients, if neutrophils are present and if they are releasing damaging enzymes such as elastase. As such, the investigating team have developed and synthesised to clinical grade, an imaging agent called NAP (Neutrophil Activation Probe) that detects activated neutrophils and also the damaging enzyme, human neutrophil elastase (HNE). The investigators have extensively tested NAP in animal models for efficacy and safety. It reliably detects activated neutrophils and is not toxic.
