Preclinical efficacy of Sym004, novel anti-EGFR antibody mixture, in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma cell lines

Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) is a well-validated oncological target molecule for monoclonal antibody therapies and Sym004 is a novel anti-EGFR antibody mixture comprising two recombinant chimeric IgG1 antibodies against non-overlapping epitopes of EGFR. Because EGFR is highly expressed in the majority of esophageal squamous cell carcinomas (ESCCs), we investigated the efficacy of Sym...

Sym004, a novel anti-EGFR antibody mixture, augments radiation response in human lung and head and neck cancers.

Sym004 represents a novel EGF receptor (EGFR)-targeting approach comprising a mixture of two anti-EGFR antibodies directed against distinct epitopes of EGFR. In contrast with single anti-EGFR antibodies, Sym004 induces rapid and highly efficient degradation of EGFR. In the current study, we examine the capacity of Sym004 to augment radiation response in lung cancer and head and neck cancer mode...

Preclinical pharmacokinetics and safety of Sym004: a synergistic antibody mixture directed against epidermal growth factor receptor.

PURPOSE Sym004 is a novel therapeutic antibody mixture product comprising two unmarketed monoclonal antibodies (mAb) targeting the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR). In previous preclinical proof-of-concept studies, Sym004 was shown to elicit superior cancer cell growth inhibition activities compared with marketed anti-EGFR mAbs. This article describes the design and results of the precli...
