Tigatuzumab (CS-1008) is a humanized IgG1 monoclonal antibody targets death receptor 5 (DR5). Tigatuzumab induces cell apoptosis of cancer cells and inhibits tumor growth in vivo. Tigatuzumab can be used for the research of cancer[1].
Tigatuzumab is sensitive to MIA PaCa-2 cells and BxPC-3 cells with IC50 values of 2.95 and 8.21 μg/mL, respectively[1].
Tigatuzumab (3-8 μg/mL; 5 h) induces apoptosis of cancer cells[1].
Tigatuzumab (3 mg/kg; i.v. weekly for 4 weeks) effectively represses the tumor growth in human pancreatic cancer MIA PaCa-2-RFP orthotopic mouse model[1].
