Human anti TRASTUZUMAB

Human anti-Trastuzumab Antibody, clone AbD18141, is a paratope specific, high affinity, anti-idiotypic antibody that specifically recognizes the monoclonal antibody drug trastuzumab and inhibits it binding to its target. The antibody can be used to measure the levels of trastuzumab and biosimilar products in bioanalytical assays.Human Anti-Trastuzumab Antibody, clone AbD18141 is a fully human recombinant monoclonal antibody in monovalent Fab format and is suitable as a capture antibody paired with antibody clone AbD16712_hIgG1 (HCA176P) in a pharmacokinetic (PK) bridging ELISA, to measure free drug in preclinical research and clinical trials using patient sera.Trastuzumab, also known as Herceptin, is a drug used in the treatment of HER2 positive breast cancer and other HER2 over-expressing cancers including HER2-positive metastatic cancers of the gastrointestinal tract. Trastuzumab binds to the HER2 (or c-erbB2) proto-oncogene, an EGF receptor-like protein found on 20-30% of breast cancer cells. The binding leads to antibody mediated (complement mediated) killing of the HER2 positive cells.View a summary of all anti-trastuzumab antibodies.
