  • Publication number: 20230107304
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates generally to methods of treating (i) a tumor (e.g., a solid tumor, an advanced solid tumor, a cancer), (ii) tumor-related weight loss, or (iii) tumor-related cachexia in a human patient, the method comprising administering to the human patient an anti-GDNF family receptor alpha-like (GFRAL) antibody, wherein the antibody inhibits GFRAL binding to Ret proto-oncogene (RET). The present disclosure also relates generally to methods of treating pancreatic cancer (e.g., an advanced pancreatic cancer, a metastatic pancreatic cancer, a pancreatic adenocarcinoma, a metastatic pancreatic adenocarcinoma, an MSI-H pancreatic cancer, a pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma, a metastatic pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma) in a human patient, comprising administering to the human patient (i) an anti-GFRAL antibody, wherein the antibody inhibits GFRAL binding to RET; (ii) paclitaxel; and (iii) gemcitabine.
