Benefits of technology

The patent describes antibodies that target specific molecules, such as PD-1 and HER2, and a combination of these antibodies. The antibodies are modified to have reduced effector function, and the combination treatment results in enhanced activity of CD8 T cells, with increased number and cytolytic activity. The treatment also suppresses Treg function and decreases T cell exhaustion. Overall, the patent provides a technical solution for improving the effectiveness of immunotherapy treatment for cancer and other diseases.

Problems solved by technology

In the absence of co-stimulation, T-cells can become refractory to antigen stimulation, do not mount an effective immune response, and further may result in exhaustion or tolerance to foreign antigens.

HER2 T Cell Dependent Bispecific Antibody (HER2-TDB) for Treatment of HER2 Positive Cancers

[0352]Based on recent clinical success of tumor immunotherapies that block immune suppressive mechanisms to restore T cell function, there is a profound interest in the clinical development of T cell targeted therapies. To meet this demand, described herein is a trastuzumab-based HER2 T cell dependent bispecific antibody (HER2-TDB). This full-length human IgG format bispecific antibody conditionally activated T cells resulting in lysis of HER2 expressing cancer cells at low picomolar concentrations Importantly, HER2-TDB was able to eliminate cells refractory to currently approved HER2 therapies. The potent anti-tumor activity of HER2-TDB was demonstrated using four model systems including MMTV-huHER2 and huCD3 transgenic mice. These results demonstrated inhibitory effect of PD-L1 expression on the activity of bispecific T cell recruiting antibodies. This resistance mechanism was reversed by an...
