Tarextumab
Based on 1 Customer Validation
Tarextumab (OMP-59R5) is a cross-reactive, fully human IgG2 antibody that selectively inhibits Notch2 and Notch3 signaling. Tarextumab demonstrates broad-spectrum antitumor efficacy in xenograft models of epithelial tumors. Tarextumab can be used for the study of pancreatic cancer.

In Vitro
Tarextumab inhibits human Notch2 and Notch3 signaling activity (reduces RLU values) without affecting Notch1 in HeLa cells using a Notch-responsive luciferase reporter assay[1].
Tarextumab downregulates mRNA expression of human Notch2, Notch3, HES1, NANOG, and OCT4, and reverses Gemcitabine (HY-17026)-induced upregulation of EMT-related genes (CDH2, VIM, FN1) in OMP-PN17 pancreatic tumor cells[1].
Tarextumab reduces protein levels of Notch3 extracellular domain (ECD) and active intracellular domain (ICD) in OMP-PN17 pancreatic tumor cells, and decreases the number of cells with high Notch3 ECD staining[1].
MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.
In Vivo
Tarextumab (40 mg/kg, i.p., once weekly, 4 weeks) does not induce marked tumor growth inhibition in MDA-MB-468 and HCC70 TNBC cell line-derived xenograft models in BALB/c nude mice[2].

-
Animal Model:Human pancreatic cancer cells (from PDX models including OMP-PN4, OMP-PN8, OMP-PN17) were subcutaneously implanted into NOD/SCID mice[1]
-
Dosage:40 mg/kg combined with Gemcitabine (HY-17026)
-
Administration:i.p., every other week
-
Result:Achieved enhanced antitumor efficacy.
Showed striking tumor regression.
Reduced cancer stem cell (CSC) frequency.
Delayed tumor recurrence.
Decreased tumor cell proliferation.
Increased pericyte maturation (enhanced desmin-positive pericyte association with CD31-positive endothelial cells) and tumor vascular perfusion and reduced intratumoral hypoxia.

-
Dosage:40 mg/kg
-
Administration:i.p., once weekly, 4 weeks

Immobilized NOTCH2 Protein (His Tag), Human can bind Tarextumab. The EC50 for this effect is 1.22 ng/mL. -
Flow cytometric analysis of 1X106 MCF-7 cells with Tarextumab (HY-P99320, red). Cells were fixed with 4% paraformaldehyde. Then stained with the primary antibody at 1/200 dilution for an hour at 4℃. Alexa Fluor 488-conjugated AffiniPure Goat Anti-Human IgG H&L (AF488) (HY-P83776) was used as the secondary antibody at 1/1,000 dilution for 30 minutes at 4℃. Human IgG2 kappa (HY-P99002, blue) was used as the isotype control, cells without incubation with primary antibody were used as the unlabeled control (black).
