  • Use of ligand-mimicking agents and anti-neoplastic drugs in cancer therapy
    Patent number: 6884418
    Abstract: This invention is directed toward novel synergistic combinations of ligand-mimicking agents specific to the c-erbB-2 protein and anti-neoplastic drugs or agents, which can be used to treat a mammalian host, usually a human, suspected of having cancer or tumor cells by administering the combination in a therapeutically- or synergistically-effective amount. The drug combinations cytotoxic to tumor cells comprise an anti-neoplastic agent and a molecule, that is not conjugated to the anti-neoplastic agent, that binds the tumor cells and induces an increase in the phosphorylation of c-erbB-2 protein when placed in contact with the tumor cells. Alternatively, the drug combination cytotoxic to tumor cells may comprise an anti-neoplastic agent and a molecule, that is not conjugated to the anti-neoplastic agent, that binds the tumor cells and causes down modulation or internalization of c-erbB-2 protein. The anti-neoplastic drug is preferably an alkylating agent, most preferably cisplatin.
