What is Panitumumab?
Description
Panitumumab is a recombinant, fully human IgG2 kappa monoclonal antibody that is highly selective for the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR), and it is indicated for the treatment of EGFR-expressing, metastatic colorectal carcinoma (mCRC) with disease progression on or following fluoropyrimidine-, oxaliplatin-, and irinotecan-containing chemotherapy regimens. Overexpression of EGFR is detected in many human cancers, including those of the colon and rectum. Panitumumab blocks the binding of ligands such as epidermal growth factor (EGF) and transforming growth factor (TGF-a) to various EGFR-expressing cell lines, which results in inhibition of EGF-dependent tumor cell activation, induction of apoptosis, and decreased pro-inflammatory cytokine and vascular growth factor production. In vitro, panitumumab binds EGFR with high affinity (KD ? 50pM; IC50 ? 3 nM) in human cervical epidermal cell line A-431. .
