NCIt definition : A monoclonal antibody directed against transforming growth factor-beta receptor type
II (TGF-beta RII) with potential antineoplastic activity. Anti-TGF-beta RII monoclonal
antibody IMC-TR1 specifically targets and binds to TGF-beta R11, thereby preventing
the activation of TGF-beta RII-mediated signaling pathways. TGF-beta RII is mutated
in a number of cancer cell types and is involved in cancer cell proliferation and
tumor progression.;
