The drug Trastuzumab, a humanized IgG1 kappa monoclonal antibody, is used by healthcare providers to treat patients with breast cancer and metastatic gastric or gastroesophageal junction adenocarcinoma. Trastuzumab selectively binds with high affinity to the extracellular domain of the human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 protein, HER2. Trastuzumab is produced by recombinant DNA technology in a mammalian ovary cell culture containing the antibiotic gentamicin. Trastuzumab comes in 440 mg multi-use vials for intravenous infusion. The HER2 proto-oncogene encodes a transmembrane receptor protein of 185 kDa, which is structurally related to the epidermal growth factor receptor. Trastuzumab medicine has been shown in both in vitro assays and in animals to inhibit the proliferation of human tumor cells that overexpress HER2. 

Trastuzumab price is very reasonable with several generic medicine suppliers in India. If you want to buy or know more about Trastuzumab, call toll-free no. 18008891064.
