CA 2676049

The invention relates to the field of recombinant antibodies for use in human cancer therapy. More specifically the invention provides compositions or mixtures of antibodies capable of binding human EGFR. Antibody compositions with 3 or more antibodies have shown synergy in reduction of proliferation of representative cancer cell lines. Advantageous results have also been obtained with a composition comprising two different chimeric anti-hEGFR antibodies which show a new mechanism of action based on rapid and efficient receptor internalisation, induction of terminal differentiation and subsequent tumour eradication in an animal model. The antibodies of the invention can be manufactured in one bioreactor as a polyclonal antibody.

La présente invention concerne des anticorps recombinants à utiliser comme anti-cancéreux chez les humains. L'invention concerne plus particulièrement des compositions ou mélanges d'anticorps capables de se lier au récepteur EGFR humain (pour "Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor" = récepteur du facteur de croissance épidermique). Des compositions d'au moins 3 anticorps ont fait preuve de synergie pour réduire la prolifération des lignées de cellules cancéreuses représentatives. On a également eu de bons résultats sur un modèle animal avec une composition comprenant deux anticorps chimériques différents dirigés contre l'EGFR humain, mettant en évidence un nouveau mécanisme d'action reposant sur la rapidité et la puissance de l'internalisation du récepteur, l'induction de différenciation terminale suivie d'une éradication de la tumeur. Les anticorps de l'invention peuvent se fabriquer sous forme d'anticorps polyclonal dans un bioréacteur.
