MET Enhances Amivantamab Binding to EGFR and Antibody-Dependent Cellular Toxicity.

ABSTRACT: Amivantamab is a bispecific antibody against epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) and MET that has been approved for nonsmall cell lung cancer (NSCLC) with EGFR exon 20 insertion mutations and common EGFR mutations, such as exon 19 deletion and L858R. MET has attracted attention as a therapeutic target for lung cancer; however, its role in EGFR binding and amivantamab-induced antibody-dependent cellular toxicity (ADCC) remains unclear. We used high-speed atomic force microscopy (HS-AFM) to observe the real-time binding of amivantamab to the EGFR-extracellular domain (ECD) and MET-ECD and visualized the binding of amivantamab to the EGFR domain 3 and MET Sema domain. Furthermore, we observed the trimer comprising amivantamab bound to EGFR and MET. Western blot analysis of the gel filtrat
