  • Patent number: 11084872
    Abstract: Breast cancer cells lacking ER protein expression, PgR protein expression and/or showing absence of HER2 protein over-expression (i.e., triple-negative breast cancer cells, basal-like) can be efficiently targeted with an anti-KAAG1 antibody and killed upon delivery of a therapeutic moiety. Antibodies and antigen binding fragments that specifically binds to KAAG1 may thus be used for the, detection and therapeutic treatment of breast cancer cells that are negative for at least one of these markers. The use of antibody conjugates in the treatment of triple-negative breast cancer and/or basal-like breast cancer is disclosed herein.

  • Publication number: 20180369269
    Abstract: Novel monoclonal antibodies that specifically bind to KAAG1 are described. In some embodiments, the antibodies block the biological activity of KAAG1 and are useful in composition in certain cancers, more particularly in cancers that have increased cell surface expression of KAAG1, such as ovarian, renal, lung, colorectal, breast, brain, and prostate cancer, as well as melanoma. The invention also relates to cells expressing the monoclonal antibodies and antigen binding fragments such as humanized and chimeric antibodies. Additionally, methods of detecting and treating cancer using the antibodies and fragments are also disclosed.

  • Patent number: 9822170
    Abstract: Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) expression and phosphorylation is increased in cancer cells treated with anti-clusterin antibodies. Such treatment is also accompanied with the reappearance of an epithelial phenotype of the cancer cell, as determined by an increased E-cadherin expression at the surface of cancer cells. Clusterin inhibitors may thus induce reversal of the epithelial to mesenchymal phenotype and restore sensitivity of cancer cells to EGFR inhibitors. Combinations of a clusterin inhibitor and an EGFR as well as their use in treatment of cancer are thus provided herewith.
