Title:

A cell surface-binding antibody atlas nominates a MUC18-directed antibody-drug conjugate for targeting melanoma

Published date:

Excerpt:
AMT-253 exhibited MUC18-specific cytotoxicity through DNA damage and apoptosis and a strong bystander killing effect, leading to potent antitumor activities against melanoma cell line and patient-derived xenograft models….Combination therapy of AMT-253 with an anti-angiogenic agent generated higher efficacy than single agent in a mucosal melanoma model. Beyond melanoma, AMT-253 was also efficacious in a wide range of MUC18-expressing solid tumors.
