Abstract: The invention provides means and methods for inhibiting a biological activity of cells. In one embodiment the invention is concerned with a method of inhibiting a biological activity in a first or second cell mediated by the binding of two membrane proteins that are binding partners for each other. The mentioned biological activity is inhibited by providing the cells with an antibody or antibody like molecule that can bind to each of the mentioned binding partners and the binding blocks the binding of the two binding partners thereby inhibiting the mentioned biological activity.

Abstract: The invention provides means and methods for interfering with Programmed Cell Death 1 protein (PD-1) and Lymphocyte activation 3 (LAG 3) mediated inhibition in a PD-1 and/or LAG3 positive cell.

Abstract: A PD-1/CD3 bispecific antibody or an antigen-binding fragment thereof useful for preventing, suppressing the progression of symptoms of or the recurrence of or treating autoimmune diseases is disclosed. The PD-1/CD3 bispecific antibody comprises a first arm specifically binding to PD-1 and a second arm specifically binding to CD3. The PD-1/CD3 bispecific antibody can be formulated into a formulation which can reduce the occurrence of adverse reactions called as infusion reaction or cytokine release syndrome and the bispecific antibody contributes to enhancement or duration of an effect of preventing, suppressing the progression of symptoms of or the recurrence of or treating autoimmune diseases.

Abstract: An agent for preventing, suppressing the progression of symptoms of, suppressing the recurrence of or treating autoimmune diseases, comprising a bispecific antibody or an antibody fragment thereof, having a first arm specifically binding to PD-1 and a second arm specifically binding to CD19, as described herein.

Abstract: A bispecific antibody which is capable of specifically binding to PD-1 and CD3 is disclosed. The bispecific antibody is suitable for preventing, suppressing symptom progression or recurrence of, and/or treating autoimmune diseases.
