Analysis of spleen leukocytes cell subpopulations in B-hVEGFR2 mice
Antitumor activity of anti-human VEGFR2 antibody in B-hVEGFR2 mice. (A) Ramucirumab (in house) inhibited MC38 tumor growth in B-hVEGFR2 mice. Murine colon cancer MC38 cells were subcutaneously implanted into homozygous B-hVEGFR2 mice (female, 8-week-old, n=6). Mice were grouped when tumor volume reached approximately 100 mm3, at which time they were treated with Ramucirumab (in house) with doses and schedules in panel A. (B) Body weight changes during treatment. (C) Proportion of CD31-positive cell area of total area analyzed in tumor tissue. As shown in panel A, anti-human VEGFR2 antibody was efficacious in controlling tumor growth in B-hVEGFR2 mice, demonstrating that the B-hVEGFR2 mice provide a powerful preclinical model for in vivo evaluation of anti-human VEGFR2 antibodies. As shown in panel C, anti-human VEGFR2 antibody Ramucirumab inhibits vascular endothelial cell proliferation. Values are expressed as mean ± SEM.
