  • Patent number: 9644028
    Abstract: The present invention provides an anti-CDH3 humanized antibody having lower immunogenicity, and an anti-CDH3 humanized antibody drug conjugate having the aforementioned anti-CDH3 humanized antibody. The present invention provides a conjugate of an anti-CDH3 humanized antibody and a drug by conjugating a drug having cytotoxicity to an anti-CDH3 humanized antibody having complementarity determining region sequences derived from the heavy chain variable region of an antibody produced by cells having Accession No.

  • Patent number: 9127061
    Abstract: It is an object to provide a recombinant antibody that is an anti-CDH3 antibody having cytotoxicity on CDH3-expressing cells, which is anticipated to have fewer side effects than antibodies derived from animals other than humans and to maintain its therapeutic effects for a long period of time. The present invention provides a recombinant antibody which specifically reacts with an epitope existing in the amino acids at positions 108 to 131 or at positions 551 to 654 of the amino acid sequence shown in SEQ ID NO: 38 that is the extracellular region of human CDH3, and has cytotoxicity against CDH3-expressing cells.

  • Patent number: 9017683
    Abstract: It is an object of the present invention to provide an anti-cadherin antibody having high antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity. The present invention provides an anti-cadherin antibody, which recognizes any one of an upstream region of EC1, a cadherin domain 4 (EC4) and a cadherin domain 5 (EC5), wherein an antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity at an antibody concentration of 1 ?g/mL is 30% or more.
