[0872] Examples thereof may include a production method comprising the steps of:

[0873] (i) preparing a library of antigen-binding molecules that each bind CD3 or CD137 and have at least one amino acid altered in the antibody variable region, wherein the altered variable regions differ from each other in at least one amino acid;

[0874] (ii) selecting an antigen-binding molecule from the prepared library, the antigen-binding molecule comprising a variable region that has binding activity to CD3 and CD137 but does not simultaneously bind to CD3 and CD137;

[0875] (iii) culturing host cells comprising the nucleic acid encoding the variable region of the antigen-binding molecule selected in step (ii) and the nucleic acid encoding the variable region of the antigen-binding molecule that binds to the third antigen, to express the nucleic acid comprising the variable region capable of binding to CD3 and CD137, but not an antibody variable region that binds both CD3 and CD137 and...

Antibody Expi293 (Invitrogen) was expressed and purified by protein A purification followed by gel filtration if required. The sequences of 15 representative variants with multiple mutations are listed in Tables 1.1 and 1.2, and were used in Example 1.2.2 at 25°C and / or 37°C using the Biacore T200 instrument (GE Healthcare) described below. Binding kinetics were assessed at °C. Table 1.3 lists the fold change in affinity for human CD137 and human CD3 by single mutations in the variable regions.

Abstract

The present invention relates to antigen-binding molecules binding to CD3 and CD137 (4-1BB); compositions comprising the antigen-binding molecule; and methods of using the same. The present invention provides antigen-binding molecules comprising: an antibody variable region that is capable of binding to CD3 and CD137 (4-1BB), but does not bind to CD3 and CD137 at the same time; and a variable region binding to a third antigen different from CD3 and CD137. Such antigen binding molecules exhibit enhanced T-cell dependent cytotoxity activity induced by these antigen-binding molecules through binding to the three different antigens.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to antigen-binding molecules that bind CD3 and CD137 (4-1BB) and methods of use thereof. Background technique [0002] Antibodies are highly stable in plasma and cause few adverse reactions, thus attracting attention as drugs (Nat. Biotechnol. (2005) 23, 1073-1078 (NPL 1) and Eur J Pharm Biopharm. (2005) 59(3), 389-396(NPL 2)). Antibodies not only have antigen-binding effects and agonist or antagonist effects, but also induce effector cell-mediated cytotoxic activity (also known as effector function), such as ADCC (antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity), ADCP (antibody-dependent cellular phagocytosis) ) or CDC (complement-dependent cytotoxicity). In particular, antibodies of the IgGl subclass exhibit effector functions against cancer cells. Accordingly, a large number of antibody drugs have been developed in the field of oncology. [0003] In order to exert ADCC, ADCP, or CDC of antibodies, their Fc regions must bin...
