BISPECIFIC BINDING AGENTS TARGETING IGF-1R AND ERBB3 SIGNALLING AND USES THEREOF

摘要

Disclosed are bispecific binding agents that specifically target both of the IGF-1 and the ErbB intracellular signaling pathways. For example, bispecific binding agents that comprise an anti-IGF-1R antibody and an anti-ErbB3 antibody connected by a linker are described herein. These bispecific agents are capable of antagonizing signal transduction by both of the IGF-1 and the ErbB signaling pathways and are useful in inhibiting the proliferation of tumor cells whose growth involves the signaling activity of both pathways.
