Valone FH, Kaufman PA, Guyre PM, Lewis LD, Memoli V, Ernstoff MS, Wells W, Barth R, Deo Y, Fisher J, et al.: Clinical trials of bispecific antibody MDX-210 in women with advanced breast or ovarian cancer that overexpresses HER-2/neu. J Hematother. 1995 Oct;4(5):471-5. MDX-210 is a bispecific antibody (BsAb) that recognizes Fc gamma R1 on monocytes and macrophages and the cell surface product of the HER-2/neu oncogene, which is overexpressed on some breast and ovarian cancers. Clinical trials have demonstrated that treatment with MDX-210 is well tolerated and that MDX-210 is both immunologically and clinically active. Optimization of the dose and schedule of MDX-210 and development of combination treatments with cytokines that modulate immune effector cells will greatly enhance the efficacy of this novel BsAb construct for treatment of tumours that overexpress HER-2/neu. We envision that MDX-210 will be effective for treating patients with tumors that overexpress HER-2/neu, especially in the minimal disease setting. |
