  • Patent number: 11958910
    Abstract: Provided herein are bispecific antigen-binding molecules that bind HER2 and methods of use thereof. The bispecific antigen-binding molecules comprise a first and a second antigen-binding domain, wherein the first and second antigen-binding domains bind to two different (preferably non-overlapping) epitopes of the extracellular domain of human HER2. The bispecific antigen-binding molecules cluster on the surface of HER2 IHC2+ and IHC3+ cells, and are internalized into the cellular lysosomes. Also included are antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) comprising the antibodies or bispecific antigen-binding molecules provided herein linked to a cytotoxic agent, radionuclide, or other moiety, as well as methods of treating cancer in a subject by administering to the subject a bispecific antigen-binding molecule or an ADC thereof.

  • Publication number: 20230416376
    Abstract: Provided herein are antibodies and bispecific antigen-binding molecules that bind MET and methods of use thereof. The bispecific antigen-binding molecules comprise a first and a second antigen-binding domain, wherein the first and second antigen-binding domains bind to two different (preferably non-overlapping) epitopes of the extracellular domain of human MET. The bispecific antigen-binding molecules are capable of blocking the interaction between human MET and its ligand HGF. The bispecific antigen-binding molecules can exhibit minimal or no MET agonist activity, e.g., as compared to monovalent antigen-binding molecules that comprise only one of the antigen-binding domains of the bispecific molecule, which tend to exert unwanted MET agonist activity.

The present invention also provides novel bispecific antibodies (bsAbs) that bind to both MUC16 and CD3 and activate T cells via the CD3 complex in the presence of MUC16-expressing tumors. According to certain embodiments, the present invention provides bispecific antigen-binding molecules comprising a first antigen-binding domain that specifically binds human and monkey CD3, and a second antigen-binding molecule that specifically binds human and monkey MUC16. In certain embodiments, the bispecific antigen-binding molecules of the present invention are capable of inhibiting the growth of tumors expressing MUC16.
