Antitumor Activities in Mouse Xenograft Models of Canine Fibroblastic Tumor by Defucosylated Mouse-Dog Chimeric Anti-HER2 Monoclonal Antibody (H77Bf)

Human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) is a cell surface type I transmembrane glycoprotein that is overexpressed on a variety of solid tumors and transduces the oncogenic signaling upon homo- and heterodimerization with HER families. Anti-HER2 monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) including trastuzumab and its antibody-drug conjugate have been shown to improve patients' survival in HER2-positive breast, gastric, and lung cancers. Canine tumors have advantages as naturally occurring tumor models, and share biological and histological characteristics with human tumors. In this study, we generated a defucosylated version of mouse-dog chimeric anti-HER2 mAb (H77Bf) derived from H
