The present invention relates to compositions and methods for treating neoplasms in mammals, particularly humans. More particularly, the present invention provides for methods for preventing, treating or delaying neoplasm in a mammal using an ErbB-3 protein, a nucleic acid encoding an ErbB-3 protein or a functional fragment thereof. The present invention also provides for isolated nucleic acids encoding an extracellular domain of the ErbB-3 protein, or a functional fragment thereof, substantially purified extracellular domain of the ErbB-3 protein, or a functional fragment thereof and antibodies that bind to an epitope in an extracellular domain of the ErbB-3 protein, or a functional fragment thereof. The present invention further provides for pharmaceutical compositions and/or vaccines comprising the extracellular domain of the ErbB-3 protein, or a functional fragment thereof, or nucleic acids encoding and antibodies binding to such extracellular domain or functional fragments thereof.

La présente invention se rapporte à des compositions et à des procédés de traitement des néoplasmes chez des mammifères, particulièrement des sujets humains. Plus particulièrement, la présente invention se rapporte à des procédés permettant de prévenir, traiter ou retarder l'apparition d'un néoplasme chez un mammifère au moyen d'une protéine ErbB-3, d'un acide nucléique codant une protéine ErbB-3 ou d'un fragment fonctionnel de cette dernière. La présente invention se rapporte également à des acides nucléiques isolés codant un domaine extracellulaire de la protéine ErbB-3, ou un fragment fonctionnel de ce domaine, un domaine extracellulaire sensiblement purifié de la protéine ErbB-3, ou un fragment fonctionnel de ce domaine et des anticorps qui se lient à un épitope dans un domaine extracellulaire de la protéine ErbB-3, ou un fragment fonctionnel de ces anticorps. La présente invention se rapporte en outre à des compositions pharmaceutiques et/ou des vaccins comportant le domaine extracellulaire de la protéine ErbB-3 ou un fragment fonctionnel de ce domaine, ou des acides nucléiques codant ce domaine extracellulaire et des anticorps se liant à ce domaine ou à des fragments fonctionnels de ce dernier.
