Bispecific antibodies play an important role in immunotherapy. They have received intense interest from pharmaceutical enterprises. The first antibody drug, OKT3 (muromonab-CD3), showed great performance in clinical treatment. We have successfully developed a single-chain variable fragment (ScFv) combination of anti-CD3 ScFv and anti-CD138 ScFv with the hIgG1 Fc (hIgFc) sequence. The novel bispecific T-cell engager (BiTE) with an additional hIgFc (BiTE-hIgFc, STL001) can target T cells, natural killer cells, and multiple myeloma cells (RPMI-8226 or U266). In addition, BiTE-hIgFc (STL001) has nanomolar-level affinity to recombinant human CD138 protein and shows more potent antitumor activity against RPMI-8226 cells than that of separate aCD3-ScFv-hIgFc and aCD138-ScFv-hIgFc, or the isotype mAb in vitro or in vivo.
双特异性抗体在免疫治疗中发挥着重要作用。它们受到了制药企业的强烈关注。首个抗体药物OKT3(鼠抗人CD3单克隆抗体)在临床治疗中表现出色。我们成功开发了一种抗CD3单链可变片段(ScFv)与抗CD138 ScFv结合并带有hIgG1 Fc(hIgFc)序列的产品。新型双特异性T细胞衔接器(BiTE)附加hIgFc(BiTE-hIgFc,STL001)可靶向T细胞、自然杀伤细胞和多发性骨髓瘤细胞(RPMI-8226或U266)。此外,BiTE-hIgFc(STL001)对重组人CD138蛋白具有纳摩尔级亲和力,并且在体外或体内对RPMI-8226细胞显示出比单独的aCD3-ScFv-hIgFc和aCD138-ScFv-hIgFc或同型单克隆抗体更强的抗肿瘤活性。
