Tovetumab (MEDI-575) is an anti-PDGFRα monoclonal antibody that selectively blocks the PDGFRα signal transduction. Tovetumab can be used in the research of glioblastoma and non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC)[1][2]. | [in vivo]
Tovetumab (0.6-60 mg/kg, i.v.) blocks the PDGFRα-mediated elimination of PDGF-AA, leading to an increase in circulating PDGF-AA level in Cynomolgus monkeys[1].
Tovetumab (10 mg/kg, i.p., twice a week) inhibits tumor growth in U118 glioma xenografts[2].
| Animal Model: | Cynomolgus monkey[1] | | Dosage: | 0.6, 6.0, and 60 mg/kg | | Administration: | Intravenous injection (i.v.) | | Result: | Induced > 100- fold increases in circulating concentrations of PDGF-AA. |
| Animal Model: | U118 glioma xenografts (CB17 SCID)[2] | | Dosage: | 10 mg/kg | | Administration: | Intraperitoneal injection (i.p.), twice per week. | | Result: | Produced 101% inhibition of tumor growth. |
