Human binding molecule against CD1a
View Patent ↗The present invention provides human binding molecules that specifically bind to CD1 a , nucleic acid molecules encoding the human binding molecules, compositions comprising the human binding molecules and methods of identifying or producing the human binding molecules. The human binding molecules can be used in the diagnosis, prevention and treatment of neoplastic disorders and diseases.
1. A monoclonal antibody that binds to human CD1a, wherein the monoclonal antibody is selected from the group consisting of:
a) a monoclonal antibody that comprises a heavy chain variable region comprising the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO:8, and a light chain variable region comprising SEQ ID NO: 20; and
b) a monoclonal antibody that comprises a heavy chain variable region comprising the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO:18, and a light chain variable region comprising SEQ ID NO: 20.
2. A monoclonal antibody capable of specifically binding to human CD1a, wherein the monoclonal antibody is selected from the group consisting of:
a) a monoclonal antibody that comprises a heavy chain variable region comprising the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO:8, and a light chain variable region comprising SEQ ID NO: 20; and
b) a monoclonal antibody that comprises a heavy chain variable region comprising the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO:18, and a light chain variable region comprising SEQ ID NO: 20.
3. The monoclonal antibody of claim 1 , wherein the monoclonal antibody is an IgG1.
4. The monoclonal antibody of claim 1 , wherein the antibody has cytotoxic activity against a CD1a-expressing cell.
5. A composition comprising the monoclonal antibody of claim 1 .
