Trial Information
Immunoreactivity to Cetuximab in Cancer Patients
OBJECTIVES:
- To examine serum samples from patients with head and neck cancer or advanced colorectal
cancer previously treated with cetuximab for the presence of antibodies against
cetuximab.
OUTLINE: Serum samples are examined by immunoreactivity screening of IgE, IgG, IgA, and IgM
antibodies and complement reaction.
