 | | ImClone Systems reported that the antibodies, IMC-11F8 and IMC-1121B, both of which target growth factor receptors, are being evaluated for their potential as cancer therapeutics. |
 | | As reported by ImClone Systems, inhibition of the function of this receptor with IMC-1121B blocks angiogenesis (the growth of new blood vessels), thereby limiting nutrient supply to the tumor and causing tumor cell death in preclinical models. |
 | | ImClone Systems announced in a company press release dated January 5, 2005 that it has entered IMC-1121B into Phase I development in the United States. |
