NCIt definition : A murine monoclonal IgG2a antibody to tumor-associated epithelial cell adhesion molecule
(EpCAM, or 17-1A) antigen. Edrecolomab attaches to EpCAM, a human cell surface glycoprotein
that is found on normal epithelial cells and some tumor cells, such as those of colon
and breast carcinomas. Upon binding, this agent recruits the body's immune effector
cells, which may exhibit antitumor cytotoxicity. (NCI04);
