Antitumor activity of HER-2 inhibitors

Cancer Letters
Sridhar K Rabindran

Abstract

Activation of intracellular mitogenic signal transduction pathways driven by the ErbB family of receptor tyrosine kinases has been implicated in a variety of cancers. Amongst these, the tumorigenic roles of the Epidermal Growth Factor receptor (EGFR) and HER-2 have been most extensively studied. Therapeutic antibodies and small molecule kinase inhibitors targeting EGFR have recently received regulatory agency approval for the treatment of colon and lung cancer, respectively. In this review, I briefly describe these agents and their potential use in inhibiting the growth of tumors that overexpress HER-2. I also discuss other therapeutics currently available or being developed specifically to target HER-2 dependent tumors.

Antibody-Dependent Cell Cytotoxicity

Antibody-dependent cellular toxicity refers to the lysis of a target cell by a non-sensitized effector cell of the immune system as a result of antibodies binding to the target cell membrane and engaging the Fc receptors on the immune effector cells.
