Background: Pertuzumab is currently used in combination with trastuzumab as the first-line treatment for HER2-positive metastatic breast cancer. However, pertuzumab was originally developed independently from trastuzumab and was later incidentally found to have synergistic efficacy when combined with trastuzumab, it remains to be seen whether a more potent synergistic efficacy partner exists for trastuzumab. Methods: A trastuzumab-based functional assay was used to screen anti-HER2 antibodies harboring trastuzumab-synergistic antitumor activity. The lead candidate 5G9, in combination with trastuzumab, was further characterized for its bioactivities in cell proliferation, cell apoptosis, antigen-antibody endocytosis and HER2-mediated cell signaling pathway blocking. Finally, animal models were used to evaluate the in vivo synergistic antitumor efficacy of 5G9 in combination with trastuzumab. Findings: Compared to pertuzumab, 5G9 demonstrated more potent synergistic cell growth inhibitory activity when combined with trastuzumab (85% vs. 55%, P |
