Glembatumumab

Biological Activity

[Description]:

Glembatumumab is a fully human IgG2 monoclonal antibody directed against the extracellular structural domain of GPNMB expressed in human breast cancer and melanoma. Glembatumumab can be coupled to the microtubule inhibitor monomethyl auristatin E to form glembatumumab vedotin. Glembatumumab vedotin is an antibody-drug coupling (ADC) with antitumor activity[1].

[In Vitro]

Glembatumumab vedotin (CR011-vcMMAE) (0-2.5 μg/mL, 72 h) shows little growth inhibition in UACC62 melanoma cells without MEK inhibitor pretreatment at a concentration of 0.16 μg/mL, while the same dose of CR011-vcMMAE shows stronger growth inhibition in UACC62 cells pretreated with MEK inhibitor[3].

[In Vivo]

Glembatumumab vedotin (i.v., 2.5 mg/kg, 3 times in 7 days) can inhibit tumor growth and is well tolerated in CB17SC scid−/− female mice with sarcomas[2].
