A recently filed patent (Publication Number: US20230398212A1) outlines a method for treating cancer in a subject by administering an agent called EndoS to reduce Fc receptor binding of endogenous serum antibodies. Following this, a therapeutic antibody, trastuzumab, is administered after a specified time interval. The therapeutic antibody is designed to include glycoforms resistant to the agent's activity in the Fc domain, specifically comprising oligomannose-type glycans. This method aims to enhance the effectiveness of the therapeutic antibody in treating various types of cancer.
The patent claims specify that the method can be applied to a range of cancers such as bladder cancer, lung cancer, breast cancer, melanoma, colon cancer, and others. The set time interval for administering the therapeutic antibody ranges from 1-2 days to 1-20 days. Additionally, the glycoforms in the Fc domain of the therapeutic antibody must contain at least 5 mannose residues, with specific configurations outlined in the claims. Notably, the method is particularly highlighted for the treatment of breast cancer, showcasing its potential impact in addressing this specific type of cancer. Overall, the patent presents a novel approach to cancer treatment by combining the use of specific agents and therapeutic antibodies to enhance their efficacy in combating cancer cells.
