CEACAM6 expression is elevated in many solid tumors, but variable as a function of histotype. Based on previous work demonstrating a role for CEACAM6 in tumor cell migration, invasion and adhesion, and formation of distant metastases (Blumenthal et al., Cancer Res 65: 8809-8817, 2005), it may be a promising target for antibody-based therapy.
Blumenthal et al. (Wed,) studied this question.
