A Case of Corneal Melting in a Patient with HER2-Positive Breast Cancer

open access: yesCase Reports in Ophthalmology, 2022
Trastuzumab is the cornerstone treatment for HER2-positive breast cancer. While ocular side effects are more commonly described after the use of the antibody-drug conjugate ado-trastuzumab emtansine, we here describe corneal melting in a 79-year-old ...

Systems analysis of drug-induced receptor tyrosine kinase reprogramming following targeted mono- and combination anti-cancer therapy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
The receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs) are key drivers of cancer progression and targets for drug therapy. A major challenge in anti-RTK treatment is the dependence of drug effectiveness on co-expression of multiple RTKs which defines resistance to single ...

Immune Effects of Trastuzumab

open access: yesJournal of Cancer, 2011
Trastuzumab's targeted therapy has become a stronghold for human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 positive breast cancer patients. This humanized monoclonal antibody binds to the extracellular juxta-membrane domain of HER2 and inhibits the proliferation and survival of HER2 dependent cancer cells.

Antibody-Based Targeting of Interferon-Beta-1a Mutein in HER2-Positive Cancer Enhances Antitumor Effects Through Immune Responses and Direct Cell Killing

open access: yesFrontiers in Pharmacology, 2021
Type I interferon (IFN) has been approved as an anticancer agent to treat some malignancies. However, IFNs have a short in vivo half-life, systemic toxicity, and poor biophysical properties, which prevent it from being widely used for cancer therapy ...

Trastuzumab Sensitizes Ovarian Cancer Cells to EGFR-targeted Therapeutics

open access: yesJournal of Ovarian Research, 2010
Background Early studies have demonstrated comparable levels of HER2/ErbB2 expression in both breast and ovarian cancer. Trastuzumab (Herceptin), a therapeutic monoclonal antibody directed against HER2, is FDA-approved for the treatment of both early and
