Brand Name: Erbitux


Composition: Cetuximab


Mechanism of Action:  

By selectively attaching itself to the extracellular domain of the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR), cetuximab successfully prevents the receptor from interacting with natural ligands. Reduced tumor cell proliferation, apoptotic induction, decreased angiogenesis, and metastasis are the outcomes of this inhibition. Since many malignancies overexpress EGFR, cetuximab is an essential therapeutic drug for EGFR-mediated pathway targeting in cancer treatment.

400 mg/m² is typically given as an intravenous infusion over a period of 120 minutes as the initial dose.
