Research and Markets: Roche/Genentech's Perjeta (HER2-Positive Breast Cancer Treatment) - Forecast and Market Analysis to 2023DUBLIN --(Business Wire)-- Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/b5pjfn/perjeta) has announced the addition of the "Perjeta (HER2-Positive Breast Cancer) - Forecast and Market Analysis to 2023" report to their offering. Perjeta (pertuzumab) is the second biologic to launch in Roche/Genentech's HER2-targeted therapy portfolio, and was approved by the FDA in 2012, and by the EMA (News - Alert) and the Japanese Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare (MHLW) in 2013. Like Herceptin, Perjeta is a monoclonal antibody (mAb) that targets HER2; however, Perjeta's mechanism of action is slightly different: whereas Herceptin blocks the binding of ligands to HER2, Perjeta binds to the extracellular dimeriztion domain of HER2, inhibiting ligand-dependent dimerization of the HER receptors.
