Panitumumab (ABX-EGF)

[From today's AMGN PR. The mAb has at least three different names by now].

Panitumumab (rHuMAb-EGFr) is the first fully human monoclonal antibody directed against the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFr). It is being evaluated as monotherapy and in combination with other agents for the treatment of various solid tumor cancers in partnership with Abgenix, Inc. In 2004, Amgen initiated pivotal clinical studies in panitumumab as a third-line monotherapy in colorectal cancer patients with a convenient every-other-week dosing regimen.
