Summary

The purpose of the study is to demonstrate clinical efficacy of the investigational trifunctional bispecific antibody ertumaxomab for treatment of patients with HER-2/neu 1+ or 2+ (FISH-) expressing advanced or metastatic breast cancer (stage III b/IV) which has progressed after endocrine therapy.

Ertumaxomab is a trifunctional bispecific antibody targeting Her-2/neu and CD3 on T cells. Trifunctional antibodies represent a new concept for targeted anticancer therapy. This new antibody class has the capability to redirect T cells and accessory cells (e.g. macrophages, dendritic cells \[DCs\] and natural killer \[NK\] cells) to the tumor site. According to preclinical data, trifunctional antibodies activate these immune cells, which can trigger a complex anti-tumor immune response.
