This drug is currently approved in Argentina and Cuba.
Mechanism of action
From Wikipedia: Racotumomab is an anti-idiotypic mouse monoclonal antibody that mimics NGc gangliosides, thus triggering an immune response against the tumor antigen NGcGM3. Therefore, rather than being a passive antibody therapy, Racotumomab acts as a therapeutic vaccine.
