ABSTRACT:
The present invention provides an anti-human antibody or fragment thereof that is low or not immunogenic in humans. In particular, the antibodies or fragments are directed to human tumor antigens, preferably to the human tumor antigen 17-1A, also known as EpCAM, EGP or GA 733-2. Also provided are pharmaceutical compositions comprising the aforementioned antibodies or fragments thereto.
