A method of inhibiting proliferation of a HER2-positive cell, the method comprising exposing the cell to an immunoconjugate under conditions permissive for binding of the immunoconjugate to HER2 on the surface of the cell, thereby inhibiting proliferation of the cell, wherein the immunoconjugate comprises a cytotoxic agent and an antibody, and wherein the antibody comprises;
- (i)(a) HVR-H1 comprising the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO:
- 15;
- (b) HVR-H2 comprising the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO:
- 16, 20, or 21;
