Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a multispecific antibody comprising a binding domain that binds to LAG-3 and a binding domain that binds to PD-L1. Such multispecific antibody has comparable, or equal or higher, potency than a combination of LAG-3 and PD-L1 reference antibodies. Also provided is a method for treating a disease, in particular a disease associated with a suppressed immune system, such as cancer, with a multispecific antibody of the present disclosure. The present disclosure further relates to a vector and cell comprising nucleic acids encoding the heavy chain variable region of the LAG-3 and PD-L1 binding domains.

Abstract: The invention provides means and methods for inhibiting a biological activity of cells. In one embodiment the invention is concerned with a method of inhibiting a biological activity in a first or second cell mediated by the binding of two membrane proteins that are binding partners for each other. The mentioned biological activity is inhibited by providing the cells with an antibody or antibody like molecule that can bind to each of the mentioned binding partners and the binding blocks the binding of the two binding partners thereby inhibiting the mentioned biological activity.

Abstract: The invention provides means and methods for interfering with Programmed Cell Death 1 protein (PD-1) and Lymphocyte activation 3 (LAG 3) mediated inhibition in a PD-1 and/or LAG3 positive cell. A method may comprise contacting said cell with an antibody or a functional part, derivative and/or analogue thereof that comprises a variable domain that can bind to an extracellular part of PD-1 and a variable domain that can bind to an extracellular part of LAG3, thereby inhibiting PD-1 and/or LAG3 mediated activity in said cell. The invention also provides antibodies or variants thereof that comprises a variable domain that can bind to an extracellular part of PD-1 and a variable domain that can bind to an extracellular part of LAG3.

Abstract: The invention as disclosed herein relates to bispecific antibodies that comprises a first variable domain that can bind an extracellular part of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) and a second variable domain that can bind an extracellular part of MET Proto-Oncogene, Receptor Tyrosine Kinase (cMET). The antibody may comprise a common light chain. It may be a human antibody. The antibody may be a full-length antibody. In some aspects, the bispecific antibody is an IgG1 format antibody having an anti-EGFR, anti-cMET stoichiometry of 1:1. In some aspects, the antibody has one variable domain that can bind EGFR and one variable domain that can bind cMET.
