  • Patent number: 12139530
    Abstract: A bispecific antibody according to an embodiment of the present disclosure specifically binds to IL-17A and TNF-?. The bispecific antibody according to the present invention or an antigen binding fragment thereof exhibits high specificity for IL-17A and TNF-? and more favorable neutralization property compared to monospecific antibody of a prior art, and, by quickly suppressing inflammation and an immune response by inhibiting simultaneously IL-17 and TNF-?, it has an advantage of improving the treatment effect with lower dose.
