  • Method for treating cancer using A33 specific antibodies and chemotherapeutic agents
    Patent number: 6652853
    Abstract: This invention relates to a combination of immunotherapy and chemotherapy to promote tumor regression by treating a patient in need thereof with a combination of a humanized antibody that binds to A33 antigen and one or more chemotherapeutic agents. The method is useful for treating patients with colorectal cancer and gastric carcinomas. The method is particularly useful for treating patients who have tumors that are resistant to one or more chemotherapeutic agents and/or have metastasized.
