Sensitivity: 80 ng/ml Sample Type: Serum, Plasma Calibrator Range: 0 - 640 ng/ml Enzyme Immunoassay for the Quantitative Determination of Cetuximab in serum and plasma. Cetuximab is an epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) inhibitor used for the treatment of metastatic colorectal cancer, metastatic non-small cell lung cancer and head and neck cancer. Cetuximab is a chimeric (mouse/human) monoclonal antibody given by intravenous infusion that is distributed under the trade name Erbitux in the U.S. and Canada by the drug company Bristol-Myers Squibb and outside the U.S. and Canada by the drug company Merck KGaA. In Japan, Merck KGaA, Bristol-Myers Squibb and Eli Lilly have a co-distribution. In July 2009, FDA approved Cetuximab (Erbitux) for treatment of colon cancer with wild-type KRAS, since it had little or no effect in colorectal tumors harboring a KRAS mutation (this also applied to the EGFR antibody panitumumab). Krishgen PK kits, developed using the innovator drug as calibrator, are used for the quantitation of serum protein drug levels, and can be used for biosimilar and generics research as well. About the kit: - Uses anti-idiotypic antibodies sourced from our vendor partner in the US, which ensures higher specificity, and low cross reactivity. - Recovery rates are between 85 - 115% - Ready to use with a standard protocol with break-apart pre-coated wells - Validated as per US FDA guidelines for Bioassays - Optimized for matrix effects to ensure higher sensitivity. - Shelf life: 1 year The method employs the quantitative sandwich enzyme immunoassay technique. Antibodies to Cetuximab are pre-coated onto microwells. Samples and standards are pipetted into microwells and human Cetuximab present in the sample are bound by the capture antibody. Then a HRP (horseradish peroxidase) conjugated anti-Cetuximab antibody is pipetted and incubated. After washing microwells in order to remove any non-specific binding, the ready to use substrate solution (TMB) is added to microwells and color develops proportionally to the amount of Cetuximab in the sample. Color development is then stopped by addition of stop solution. Absorbance is measured at 450 nm.
