Abstract

An anti-glypican-3 antibody comprising one or more amino acid substitutions introduced in the Fc region is disclosed. Preferably, in the anti-glypican-3 antibody, one or more of the amino acid residues at the positions 239, 298, 326, 330 and 332 in the Fc region are substituted with other amino acid residues. Since the Fc-modified anti-glypican-3 antibody of the invention exhibit enhanced ADCC activity, it is useful in treating cancers, such as hepatic cancer. Also disclosed are an anticancer agent comprising the anti-glypican-3 antibody of the invention and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier, as well as a method of treating a patient with cancer comprising administering to the patient the anticancer agent of the invention.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to an anti-glypican-3 antibody. In particular, the present invention relates to an anti-glypican-3 antibody having a modification in the amino acid sequence of the Fc region and exhibiting enhanced ADCC activity. Background technique [0002] Glypican-3 (glypican-3, GPC3) is a family of heparan sulfate proteoglycans present on the cell surface, and it is suggested that GPC3 may be involved in cell differentiation in cancer cell development and growth, but its Functionality is still not well clarified. [0003] Certain GPC3-binding antibodies have been found to have cytostatic effects through their ADCC (antibody-dependent cytotoxicity) activity and CDC (complement-dependent cytotoxicity) (WO2003 / 000883, incorporated herein by reference in its entirety). [0004] In developing an anticancer agent utilizing the cytotoxic activity of an antibody, it is desirable to utilize an antibody having enhanced ADCC activity. Therefo...
