    Abstract: Herein are provided anti-EGFR single domain antibodies (sdAb) prepared by immunizing a llama with recombinant human EGFRvIII. VHH antibodies specific to EGFR were isolated. The example antibodies initially produced comprise CDR1, CDR2, and CDR3 sequences corresponding, respectively to SEQ NOs: 1-3, 4-6, 7-9, 10-12, 13-15, 16-18, 19-21, 22-24, 25-27, 28-30, 31-33, 34-36, 37-39, 40-42, 43-45, and 46-48; and related sequences, including humanized variants. Also provided are multivalent antibodies comprising any one of the sdAbs, including bispecific T-cell engagers, bispecific killer cell engagers (BiKEs), and trispecific killer cell engagers (TriKEs). Also described are chimeric antigen receptors (CARs) for CAR-T therapy comprising any one of the aforementioned sdAbs. Uses of these molecules in the treatment of cancer are also described, in particularly EGFR-high cancers. Hinge lengths may be selected to achieve desired activities, such as high activity or high selectivity for target vs. non-target cells.
