Monoclonal AntibodyDescriptionStatus Cetuximab (C-225) Chimeric IgG 1 Approved: Colorectal cancer Submitted: Head and Neck (H&N) cancer Phase 2: NSCLC, Others Matuzumab (EMD 72000) Humanized IgG 1 Phase 2 Trials: Recurrent ovarian cancer, NSCLC Phase I-2 Trials: Colorectal cancer Panitumumab (ABX-EGF) Fully human IgG 2 Phase 2-3 Trials: Colorectal cancer, NSCLC, Others

7 Properties of Cetuximab  IgG1 MAb (chimerized)  Binds specifically to EGFR and its heterodimers  Binds to EGFR with high affinity (K d = 2.0 x 10 –10 M): 1 log higher than the natural ligand  Following the recommended dose regimen (400 mg/m 2 initial dose/250 mg/m 2 weekly dose), the mean half-life was 114 hours (range 75-188 hours)  Competitively inhibits ligand binding to EGFR  Stimulates receptor internalization  Blocks receptor dimerization, tyrosine kinase phosphorylation, and signal transduction Shitara K, et al.
