Mode of Action

The HER2 (or c-erbB2) proto-oncogene encodes a transmembrane receptor protein of 185 kDa,  which is structurally related to the epidermal growth factor receptor. Traztuzumab has been shown, in  both in vitro assays and in animals, to inhibit the proliferation of human tumor cells that overexpress  HER2.  Traztuzumab is a mediator of antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity (ADCC). In vitro,  Traztuzumab-mediated ADCC has been shown to be preferentially exerted on HER2 overexpressing  cancer cells compared with cancer cells that do not overexpress HER2.
