Abstract

, treatment with H6-DM4 exhibited a powerful efficacy on colorectal CICs. Additionally, colorectal cancer cells resistant to platinum were effectively eliminated by H6-DM4. Taken together, our results showed 5T4-positive GI cancer cells, colorectal cancer-initiating cells, and platinum-resistant colorectal cancer cells were potently eliminated by H6-DM4, indicating H6-DM4 may be a potential candidate drug for GI cancer treatment.
