The present invention relates to a highly concentrated, stable pharmaceutical formulation of a pharmaceutically active anti-HER2 antibody, such as e.g. Trastuzumab (HERCEPTIN™), Pertuzumab or T-DM1, or a mixture of such antibody molecules for subcutaneous injection. In particular, the present invention relates to formulations comprising, in addition to a suitable amount of the anti-HER2 antibody, an effective amount of at least one hyaluronidase enzyme as a combined formulation or for use in form of a co-formulation. The formulations comprise additionally at least one buffering agent, such as e.g. a histidine buffer, a stabilizer or a mixture of two or more stabilizers (e.g. a saccharide, such as e.g. α,α-trehalose dihydrate or sucrose, and optionally methionine as a second stabilizer), a nonionic surfactant and an effective amount of at least one hyaluronidase enzyme. Methods for preparing such formulations and their uses thereof are also provided.

The present invention concerns treatment of previously untreated HER2-positive metastatic breast cancer with a combination of a growth inhibitory HER2 antibody, a HER2 dimerization inhibitor antibody and a taxane. In particular, the invention concerns the treatment of HER2-positive metastatic breast cancer in patients who did not receive prior chemotherapy or biologic therapy with a HER2 antibody binding essentially to epitope 2C4, a HER2 antibody binding essentially to epitope 4D5, and a taxane.

In a preferred embodiment, the treatment involves administration of trastuzumab, pertuzumab and docetaxel.

Methods are provided for the adjuvant treatment of operable HER2-positive primary breast cancer in human patients by administration of pertuzumab in addition to chemotherapy and trastuzumab. The methods reduce the risk of recurrence of invasive breast cancer or death for a patient diagnosed with HER2-positive early breast cancer (eBC) compared to administration of trastuzumab and chemotherapy, without pertuzumab.

The present application describes uses for Pertuzumab, a first-in-class HER2 dimerization inhibitor. In particular, the application describes methods for extending progression free survival in a HER2-positive breast cancer patient population; combining two HER2 antibodies to treat HER2-positive cancer without increasing cardiac toxicity; and treating HER2-positive cancer by co-administering a mixture of Pertuzumab and Trastuzumab from the same intravenous bag.

Methods for the treatment of HER2-positive breast cancer are provided by neoadjuvant administration of pertuzumab and trastuzumab in combination with anthracycline-based chemotherapy. In particular, the methods concerns the treatment patients with HER2-positive, locally advanced, inflammatory, or early-stage breast cancer by neoadjuvant administration of pertuzumab and trastuzumab following anthracycline-based chemotherapy, wherein the combined administration of pertuzumab and trastuzumab increases pathological complete response (pCR) relative to administration of trastuzumab as a single agent, without significant increase in adverse events, such as cardiac toxicity, relative to neoadjuvant anthracycline-based chemotherapy.

The present application describes extending survival in a cancer patient, where the patient is producing an elevated level of EGF or TGF-alpha, by treating the patient with a HER dimerization inhibitor, such as pertuzumab.

Methods for the treatment of patients with HER2-positive, HER2-amplified and / or HER2-mutated advanced cancer by administration of pertuzumab plus trastuzumab are disclosed. In one aspect, the cancer is advanced HER2-positive, HER2-amplified and / or HER2-mutated colorectal, biliary, bladder, urothelial, salivary, lung, pancreatic, ovarian, prostate, or skin cancer. In another aspect, the cancer is HER2-positive, HER2-amplified and / or HER2-mutated colorectal, biliary, bladder, urothelial, salivary, lung, pancreatic, ovarian, prostate, or skin cancer that is refractory to one or more other treatment regimens.

The invention belongs to the field of tumor treatment and the field of molecular immunology, and relates to an antibody for resisting human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2), as well as a medical composition and use of antibody, in particular to the antibody for resisting Her2 or an antigen binding fragment of the antibody for resisting Her2. The antibody for resisting Her2 comprises a first heavy chain and a second heavy chain, wherein according to the first heavy chain, a variable region of heavy chain (VH) of the first heavy chain comprises a complementarity-determining region (CDR) of which the amino acid sequence is SEQ ID No: 1-3, and the amino acid sequence of the CH of the first heavy chain is as shown in SEQ ID No: 7; according to the second heavy chain, a variable region of heavy chain (VH) of the second heavy chain comprises a complementarity-determining region (CDR) of which the amino acid sequence is SEQ ID No: 4-6, and the amino acid sequence of the CH of the first heavy chain is as shown in SEQ ID No: 8. Compared with the combination of two antibodies of trastuzumab and pertuzumab, the antibody disclosed by the invention has higher cell direct killing activity and higher antibody dependent cellmediated cytotoxicity (ADCC) activity; the complement-dependentcytotoxicity (CDC) activity of the two antibodies of trastuzumab and pertuzumab is equivalent to that of the antibody disclosed by the invention; the antibody disclosed by the invention adopts a structure of a normal antibody; and fucose is also knocked out, so that the ADCC activity is improved.
