Anatumomab mafenatox is a mouse monoclonal antibody studied for the treatment non-small cell lung cancer,[1] which acts as a tumor-targeted superantigen.[2]

It is a fusion protein of a human tumor-associated 5T4 antigen monoclonal IgG1 Fab fragment with an enterotoxin ('mafenatox') of Staphylococcus aureus.[3]

Development was abandoned in 2005.[4]
