  • Patent number: 11649290
    Abstract: The present invention provides molecules, such as ISVDs and Nanobodies, that bind to CTLA4 or human serum albumin. These molecules have been engineered so as to reduce the incidence of binding by pre-existing antibodies in the bodies of a subject administered such a molecule. Methods for increasing immune response, treating cancer and/or treating an infectious disease with such molecules are provided.
