Abstract
Description
technical field
[0001] The invention relates to the field of biopharmaceuticals, in particular to an antibody targeting BCMA, a bispecific antibody and uses thereof. Background technique
[0002] BCMA (B-cell maturation antigen, TNFRSF17, CD269) is a transmembrane protein belonging to the TNF receptor superfamily. BCMA is a non-glycosylated transmembrane protein involved in B cell maturation, growth and survival. BCMA is the receptor for two ligands of the TNF superfamily: the high-affinity ligand APRIL (proliferation-inducing ligand) and the low-affinity ligand BAFF (B-cell activating factor). BCMA is a highly differentiated plasma cell-selective protein whose expression is restricted to the B-cell lineage and is present primarily on plasma cells and plasmablasts and to some extent on memory B-cells, but not in the periphery on B-cells. BCMA is expressed in malignant plasma cells of multiple myeloma (MM) patients and supports the growth and survival of MM cells. [0003...
