  • Publication number: 20250092137
    Abstract: The invention relates generally to multispecific polypeptides that bind at least CD3, a second antigen, and a receptor of a T cell, such as a costimulatory receptor or an inhibitory receptor, in which the multispecific polypeptide constructs are able to engage CD3. In some embodiments, the multispecific polypeptide constructs bind a costimulatory receptor and provide costimulatory binding activity. In some embodiments, the multispecific polypeptide constructs bind an inhibitory receptor and block inhibitory activity. In some aspects, the multispecific polypeptides have constrained CD3 binding and bind to or engage CD3 only upon binding to the second antigen, such as a tumor associated antigen. In some embodiments, the multispecific polypeptides contain cleavable linkers that, when cleaved, result in dual effector functions. Also provided are methods of making and using these multispecific polypeptides in a variety of therapeutic, diagnostic and prophylactic indications.
