Description
Monoclonal antibodies that bind and inhibit activation of human RON (Recepteur d'Origine Nantais) are disclosed. The antibodies can be used to treat certain forms of cancer that are associated with activation of RON. It has shown that antibodies 07F01, 12B11, 17F06, 18H09 and 29B06 each inhibited MSP induced ERK phosphorylation in T47D cells, while only antibodies 07F01, 18H09 and 29B06 each blocked MSP binding to hRON SEMA+PSI in the neutralization assay. This suggests that antibodies 12B11 and 17F06 do not neutralize binding of MSP to the hRON SEMA+PSI domain, neutralize binding of MSP to RON in the context of the full RON extracellular domain, or function by a mechanism other than blocking MSP binding to RON.
