Abstract: Provided herein are trispecific and/or trivalent binding proteins comprising four polypeptide chains that form three antigen binding sites that specifically bind one or more target proteins, wherein a first pair of polypeptides forming the binding protein possess dual variable domains having a cross-over orientation, and wherein and a second pair of polypeptides possess a single variable domain forming a single antigen binding site. In some embodiments, the binding proteins comprise a binding site that binds a CD28 polypeptide, a binding site that binds a CD3 polypeptide, and a binding site that binds a third polypeptide, such as a tumor target protein. In some embodiments, the binding proteins comprise four polypeptide chains that form three antigen binding sites that specifically bind one or more HIV target proteins. The disclosure also relates to methods for making trispecific and/or trivalent binding proteins and uses of such binding proteins.

Abstract: Binding proteins comprising a pseudoFab domain including a stabilised knockout domain and a second VH/VL that form a first functional antigen binding domain are provided. Multispecific binding proteins comprising at least one pseudoFab are also provided. Multispecific binding proteins, nucleic acids encoding binding proteins and multispecific binding proteins, expression vectors, host cells, pharmaceutical composition and methods of treatment administering the binding proteins or multispecific binding proteins described herein are also provided.

Abstract: The disclosure provides methods of treating viral infection using trispecific binding proteins comprising four polypeptide chains that form three antigen binding sites that specifically bind a CD38 polypeptide (e.g., human and/or cynomolgus monkey CD38 polypeptides), a CD28 polypeptide, and a CD3 polypeptide.

Abstract: The disclosure provides binding proteins that bind CD38 polypeptides, e.g., human and cynomolgus monkey CD38 polypeptides. For example, the binding proteins can be monospecific, bispecific, or trispecific binding proteins with at least one antigen binding domain that binds a CD38 polypeptide. The disclosure also provides methods for making binding proteins that bind CD38 polypeptides and uses of such binding proteins.
