  • Publication number: 20220112283
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides monoclonal antibodies that recognize human Nectin-2 (Nectin-2, Poliovirus Receptor-Related Protein-2, Poliovirus Receptor-Like 2, CDI12, or PRR-2, is a single pass transmembrane glycoprotein with two Ig-like C2-type domains and an Ig-like V-type domain) with high affinity and specificity and inhibit its binding to TIGIT and/or CD112R. The antibodies recognize the Nectin-2 protein (CD112), prevent its binding to T cell immunoreceptor with Ig and ITIM domains (TIGIT) and CD112R (PVRIG) and inhibit suppressive activity on lymphocytes such as natural killer (NK) cells and T-cells. The disclosure further provides pharmaceutical and methods for use in cancer immunotherapy and in diagnosis. The disclosure finally further provides chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) comprising scFv antibody binding to Nectin-2.

  • Patent number: 7825085
    Abstract: The present invention relates generally to peptides derived from the natural cytotoxicity receptors on natural killer (NK) cells and to antibodies against peptide epitopes on these receptors. In particular, the present invention identifies an essential epitope in the proximal domain of NKp46 and NKp44 receptors present on NK cells, as a crucial element for the binding to viral-infected cells. The present invention provides peptides that are derived from the amino acid sequence of NKp46 receptor, capable of specific targeting of viral-infected cells and tumor cells and monoclonal antibodies which recognize a specific domain of NKp46. The present invention further provides hyperglycosylated peptides that are derived from the NKp44 receptor, capable of specific targeting of viral-infected cells.
