  • Patent number: 11970542
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides compositions and methods for improved pre-targeted radioimmunotherapeutics (PRIT) to treat various hematological disorders, such as B cell hyperproliferative disorders and solid tumors. The disclosed compositions include bispecific antibody compositions having a first domain that specifically bind to an antigen such as CD38, BCMA, Muc1, GPRC5D, or Slam7, and a second domain that specifically binds to a radioactive ligand. Methods include administering the disclosed bispecific antibody reagent and separately administering the radioactive ligand. In some embodiments, a clearing agent is also administered. In some embodiments, the therapeutic methods comprise administering a combination of two or more bispecific antibody reagents. In some embodiments, an enhancing agent, such as ATRA, gamma secretase inhibitor, or dextramethasone, is also administered to enhance expression of the target antigen on the target cells.

  • Publication number: 20230295316
    Abstract: Humanized, chimeric, murine, and human antibody or antigen binding derivatives thereof that bind to an extracellular domain of interleukin-3 (IL-3) receptor ?-chain (CD123) anti-CD123 monoclonal antibodies are provided. Nucleic acids encoding the antibody or antigen binding derivative thereof that binds to an extracellular domain of interleukin-3 (IL-3) receptor ?-chain (CD123) and expression vectors comprising the nucleic acid are also provided. Bispecific affinity reagents comprising a first binding domain that specifically binds to an extracellular domain of interleukin-3 (IL-3) receptor ?-chain (CD123); and a second binding domain that specifically binds to a therapeutic payload and uses thereof are provided. Embodiments of the invention include isolated antibodies and derivatives and fragments thereof, pharmaceutical formulations comprising one or more of the humanized, chimeric, or human anti-CD123 monoclonal antibodies; and cell lines that produce these monoclonal antibodies.

  • Patent number: 7144991
    Abstract: The present invention provides vectors for expressing genomic streptavidin fusion cassettes. In the various embodiments, fusion proteins produced from these vectors are provided. In particular embodiments, fusion proteins comprising a single chain antibody and genomic streptavidin are provided as are vectors encoding the same. Also provided, are methods of using the fusion proteins of the present invention, and in particular, the use of scFvSA fusion proteins as diagnostic markers or as a cell specific targeting agents.
