BMS-202 causes dose-dependent growth inhibition of HER2+ BC cell colonies alone, while this effect is significantly improved when used in combination with TZ….We first examined the outcome of TZ and BMS-202 on the viability of ZR75; a HER2+ BC cell line. A significant decrease in the viability of ZR75 cells was observed after mono-treatment with TZ (20µg/mL) and BMS-202 (10µM). Interestingly, combining both treatments resulted in a more significant reduction of cell viability....Our mathematical model-based study points out that the combination therapy using trastuzumab (anti-HER2, mAb) and BMS-202 (anti-PD-1/PD-L1, SmI) results in a significant growth inhibition of HER2+ BC cell lines compared with monotherapies...
