Anti-CD133 Monoclonal Antibody CMab-43 Exerts Antitumor Activity in a Mouse Xenograft Model of Colon Cancer.

This study aimed to investigate the antitumor activity of CMab-43. Caco-2 cells (human colon cancer cell line) were subcutaneously implanted into the flanks of nude mice. CMab-43 and control mouse IgG were injected three times into the peritoneal cavity of mice. Tumor formation was observed in the control and CMab-43-treated mice of Caco-2 xenograft models. CMab-43 significantly reduced tumor development of Caco-2 xenograft in comparison with the control mouse IgG on days 12, 14, and 17. Our results cumulatively suggest that CMab-43 is useful for antibody therapy against CD133-expressing colon cancers. PMID: 30969150 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
