General information

Class/mechanism: Recombinant human IgG1 EGFR monoclonal antibody. Necitumumab binds to the human epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) prevents it from binding to its ligands. This interferes with EGFR's effects on growth of malignant cells, angiogenesis, and inhibition of apoptosis. In vitro, necitumumab has been observed to cause antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity (ADCC) in cells which express EGFR, induce the internalization of EGFR, and lead to its degradation.[1][2][3]
