Antisoma Receives U.S. Patent for Therex.(for breast cancer treatment)
2002 JAN 17 - (NewsRx.com & NewsRx.net) -- Antisoma, Plc, (ASM) has been granted a U.S. patent for Therex, which is currently in Phase I studies for the treatment of breast cancer.
Therex is a naked humanized antibody that attaches itself to cancer cells. It helps components of the immune system, including natural killer cells, to find and destroy the cancer cells. The antibody recognizes MUC1, a cytokine-like receptor that is highly expressed by most solid tumors.
The U.S. patent covers antibodies that contain specified amino acid sequences and that recognize MUC1. The U.S. patent will provide protection to Therex until at least 2018.
Therex is initially being developed to treat women with breast cancer who have relapsed following first-line treatment.
