Abstract
Background
Fibroblast activation protein (FAP) is a promising target for cancer diagnosis and therapy, but the specificity and sensitivity of anti-FAP antibodies used for immunohistochemistry (IHC) vary considerably. A head-to-head comparison of commercially available clones is needed to guide antibody selection, thereby standardizing FAP IHC protocols and ensuring reliable patient stratification for FAP-directed therapies.
