Disclosed are ligands comprising a first polypeptide domain having a binding site with binding specificity for a first cell surface target and a second polypeptide domain having a binding site for a second cell surface target, wherein each target are different and on the same cell. In some embodiments, the ligands described further comprise a toxin. In other embodiments, the ligands further comprise half-life extending moieties. Also disclosed are methods of using these ligands. In particular, the use of these ligands for cancer therapy is described.
摘要:
The present invention relates to a simple method for generating antibody-based structures suitable for in vivo use. In particular, the invention relates to a method for the generation of antibody-based structures suitable for in vivo use comprising the steps of: (a) selecting an antibody single variable domain having an epitope binding specificity; and (b) attaching the single domain of step (a) to an effector group. Uses of molecules generated using the method of the Invention are also described.
摘要:
The present invention relates to a method for the generation of immunoglobulin molecules of predetermined specificity. In particular, the invention relates to a method for the retargeting of the epitope binding specificity of one or more antibodies using single variable domains which exhibit a dominant epitope binding specificity.
摘要:
The invention concerns a method which can be used to screen two or more repertoires of molecules against one another and/or to create combinatorial repertoires by combining two or more repertoires. In particular, the invention relates to a method whereby two repertoires of molecules can be screened such that all members of the first repertoire are tested against all members of the second repertoire for functional interactions. Furthermore, the invention relates to the creation and screening of antibody repertoires by combining a repertoire of heavy chains with a repertoire of light chains such that antibodies formed by the all combinations of heavy and light chains can be screened against one or more target ligands.
摘要:
The invention provides a method for selecting, from a repertoire of polypeptides, a population of functional polypeptides which bind a target ligand in a first binding site and a generic ligand in a second binding site, which generic ligand is capable of binding functional members of the repertoire regardless of target ligand specificity, comprising the steps of: a) contacting the repertoire with the generic ligand and selecting functional polypeptides bound thereto; and b) contacting the selected functional polypeptides with the target ligand and selecting a population of polypeptides which bind to the target ligand. The invention accordingly provides a method by which a polypeptide repertoire is preselected, according to functionality as determined by the ability to bind the generic ligand, and the subset of polypeptides obtained as a result of such preselection is then employed for further selection according to the ability to bind the target ligand.
