Abstract
EGF receptor (EGFR)-specific monoclonal antibodies (mAb) display limited therapeutic efficacy in EGFR-positive solid tumors. To overcome this limitation, the significant improvement of the antibody-dependent cell-mediated cytotoxicity-mediated antitumor activity of a novel EGFR-specific mAb is described. Its potential impact on the efficacy of immunotherapy for EGFR-positive solid tumors is discussed.
