Publication number: 20240117073Abstract: The present invention relates to specific binding members, particularly antibodies and fragments thereof, which bind to amplified epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) and to the de2-7 EGFR truncation of the EGFR. In particular, the epitope recognized by the specific binding members, particularly antibodies and fragments thereof, is enhanced or evident upon aberrant post-translational modification. These specific binding members are useful in the diagnosis and treatment of cancer. The binding members of the present invention may also be used in therapy in combination with chemotherapeutics or anti-cancer agents and/or with other antibodies or fragments thereof.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 26, 2023Publication date: April 11, 2024Inventors: Lloyd J.

Patent number: 9169329Abstract: The present invention relates to antibodies that specifically bind to unprocessed c-Met present on the surface of tumor cells. These antibodies are useful in the diagnosis and treatment of cancer or as agents for delivering moieties to cancer cells. The antibodies of the present invention may also be used in therapy in combination with chemotherapeutics or anti-cancer agents.Type: GrantFiled: June 1, 2011Date of Patent: October 27, 2015Assignees: Ludwig Institute for Cancer Research, Monash UniversityInventors: Terrance Grant Johns, Ermanno Gherardi, Andrew Mark Scott

Patent number: 9023356Abstract: The present invention relates to the treatment of EGFR-mediated disease, particularly cancer by inhibiting or blocking EGFR and src in combination or simultaneously. The invention relates to treatment, prevention, or modulation of cancer, particularly EGFR-mediated disease, with one or more EGFR modulator and src inhibitor in combination. The invention further relates to the treatment of cancer with anti-EGFR antibodies and src inhibitors. Methods and compositions for treatment of cancer with the antibody anti-EGFR mAb806 in combination or series with a src inhibitor or src inhibitors are described.Type: GrantFiled: March 14, 2008Date of Patent: May 5, 2015Assignees: Ludwig Institute for Cancer Research Ltd, The Regents of the University of CaliforniaInventors: Terrance Grant Johns, Webster Cavenee, Frank Furnari, Andrew Scott

Publication number: 20140322130Abstract: The present invention relates to specific binding members, particularly antibodies and fragments thereof, which bind to EGFR on tumor cells that overexpress EGFR, and on tumor cells that express the truncated version of the EGFR receptor, de2-7 EGF. In particular, the epitope recognized by the specific binding members, particularly antibodies and fragments thereof, is enhanced or evident upon aberrant post-translational modification. These specific binding members are useful in the diagnosis and treatment of cancer. The binding members of the present invention may also be used in therapy in combination with chemotherapeutics or anti-cancer agents and/or with other antibodies or fragments thereof.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 26, 2014Publication date: October 30, 2014Applicant: LUDWIG INSTITUTE FOR CANCER RESEARCH LTD.Inventors: Andrew M.

Publication number: 20140255410Abstract: The invention relates to specific binding members, particularly antibodies and active fragments thereof, which recognize an aberrant post-translationally modified, particularly an aberrant glycosylated form of the EGFR. The binding members, particularly antibodies and fragments thereof, of the invention do not bind to EGFR on normal cells in the absence of amplification of the wild-type gene and are capable of binding the de2-7 EGFR at an epitope which is distinct from the junctional peptide. Antibodies of this type are exemplified by the novel antibody 806 whose VH and VL sequences are illustrated as SEQ ID NOs: 2 and 4 and chimeric antibodies thereof as exemplified by ch806.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 11, 2012Publication date: September 11, 2014Applicant: ABBVIE INC.Inventors: Lloyd J.
