  • Publication number: 20170247449
    Abstract: The invention provides a method for treating a cancer with a human FOLR1-targeting drug by increasing an expression of folate receptor ? (hereinafter abbreviated to FOLR1) by using an antagonist for folic acid metabolism, a medicament for a cancer containing a human FOLR1-targeting drug for increasing an expression of FOLR1 by using an antagonist for folic acid metabolism and a method for enhancing a therapeutic effect of a human FOLR1-targeting drug by increasing an expression of FOLR1 in a cancer cell by using an antagonist for folic acid metabolism. For example, the invention provides a more effective therapeutic method using an antagonist for folic acid metabolism with a human FOLR1-targeting drug, for cancer patients in which an expression level of FOLR1 is low and in which an anti-tumor activity of the human FOLR1-targeting drug is not exhibited sufficiently or for cancer patients in which a treatment of a cancer expressing FOLR1 is to be further enhanced.

  • Patent number: 9695237
    Abstract: The present invention provides an anti-human FOLR1 antibody against diseases associated with human FOLR1-expressing cells, which specifically recognizes and binds to an amino acid sequence of human FOLR1 or a conformational structure thereof and also has a high effector activity such as antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity activity (ADCC activity). The present invention can provide a monoclonal antibody which specifically recognizes and binds to the amino acid sequence of human FOLR1 or the conformational structure thereof and also has ADCC activity and CDC activity, or an antibody fragment thereof, a DNA encoding the antibody, a vector comprising the DNA, a transformant obtained by introducing the vector, a method for producing the antibody or the antibody fragment thereof using the transformant, and a therapeutic agent and a diagnostic agent comprising the antibody or the antibody fragment as an active ingredient.
