Title:
INHIBITORS OF HB-EGF (ERBB) RECEPTORS FOR TREATING MYELOMA
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2003/013485
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
The invention concerns the use of at least an inhibitor of the heparin-binding epidermal growth factor or at least an inhibitor of the HB-EGF receptors, or ErbB receptors, or of at least an inhibitor of associated transduction pathways for preparing medicines useful for treating apoptosis and/or inhibiting IL-6 dependent plasmocytic tumor cell proliferation.
