Merrimack to Present Pre-Clinical Data on MM-121 and MM-111 at the 101st Annual Meeting of American Association for Cancer Research (AACR)
Date:4/17/2010

ific antibody designed to specifically inhibit ErbB3 signaling in ErbB2-overexpressing cancer cells. MM-111 binds to the critical ErbB2/ErbB3 cell receptor signaling complex and disables it from activating pAKT, an important mediator of cancer cell survival.

Poster 3485 shows pre-clinical data on the potent combinatorial effect of MM-111 and trastuzumab on inhibiting tumor cell growth driven by the ErbB2/3 signaling network

Title: MM-111, an ErbB2/ErbB3 bispecific antibody with potent activity in ErbB2-overexpressing cells, positively combines with trastuzumab to inhibit growth of breast cancer cells driven by the ErbB2/ErbB3 oncogenic unit
Poster Session: Experimental and Molecular Therapeutics 22
Number: 3485
Date/Time: Tuesday April 20, 2010 9:00 AM - 12:00 PM
Location: Exhibit Hall A-C, Poster Section 21 Permanent Abstract
