AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Current bispecific antibody formats for recruiting cytotoxic T cells to tumor sites face manufacturing challenges, stability issues, and clinical efficacy limitations, particularly in smaller formats like BiTE molecules and DARTs, which lack stability and require continuous infusion.

Method used

Development of multispecific polypeptides with high affinity for CD3 on T cells and a target antigen, independent of MHC recognition, to activate cytotoxic T cell activity against target cells.

Benefits of technology

The multispecific polypeptides effectively activate T cells to induce cytotoxic activity against target cells, achieving significant inhibition, up to 100% in some cases, and overcoming the limitations of existing bispecific antibody formats.

Abstract

To provide T cell recruiting polypeptides binding CD3 on a T cell, which can be used in methods for treating cancers.SOLUTION: Provided is a polypeptide comprising a first and a second immunoglobulin single variable domain (ISV), the first ISV having high affinity for / binding to cluster of differentiation 3 (CD3) present on a T cell, the second ISV having high affinity for / binding to a first antigen on a target cell, the first antigen being different from the CD3, and the target cell being different from the T cell.SELECTED DRAWING: None
