Abstract

Herein are antibodies or antigen-binding fragments specifically binding to GPRC5D. Additionally, monovalent antibodies or antigen-binding fragments specifically binding to GPRC5D are also included. The Fc region of these antibodies contains K248E and T437R mutations (designated as "RE mutations") per the EU numbering system. The described antibodies, expressed in host cells that lack fucosylation capabilities, exhibit enhanced antibody¬ dependent cellular cytotoxicity (ADCC) and enhanced complement-dependent cytotoxicity (CDC).
