AMG 479
AMG 479 is a fully human monoclonal antibody (IgG1) against the insulin-like growth factor receptor-1 (IGF-1R). IGF-1R signaling has been shown to play a critical role in the survival of cancer cells. AMG 479 inhibits the binding of both IGF-1 and IGF-2 to IGF-1R, thus inhibiting ligand-dependent receptor activation. Inhibition of IGF-1R signaling with AMG 479 provides a potential mechanism for inhibiting tumor growth and survival.
