Alpha5-beta1 antibodies and their uses
The present disclosure provides isolated monoclonal antibodies, particularly human monoclonal antibodies, or antigen binding portions thereof, that specifically bind to integrin α5β1 with high affinity. Nucleic acid molecules encoding the antibodies of the disclosure, expression vectors, host cells and methods for expressing the antibodies of the disclosure are also provided. Immunoconjugates, bispecific molecules and pharmaceutical compositions comprising the antibodies or antigen binding portions thereof are also provided. The disclosure also provides methods for treating various cancers using the anti-α5β1 antibodies or antigen binding portions thereof described herein.
1. An isolated nucleic acid molecule encoding an antibody, or antigen-binding portion thereof, that binds to human integrin α5β1, wherein said antibody or antigen-binding portion comprises:
(a) a heavy chain CDR1 as set forth in SEQ ID NO:1;
(b) a heavy chain CDR2 as set forth in SEQ ID NO:2;
(c) a heavy chain CDR3 as set forth in SEQ ID NO:3;
(d) a light chain CDR1 as set forth in SEQ ID NO:4;
(e) a light chain CDR2 as set forth in SEQ ID NO:5; and
(f) a light chain CDR3 as set forth in SEQ ID NO:6.
2. The nucleic acid molecule of claim 1 , wherein said antibody or antigen-binding portion comprises a heavy chain variable region amino acid sequence as set forth in SEQ ID NO:7.
3. The nucleic acid molecule of claim 1 , wherein said antibody or antigen-binding portion comprises a light chain variable region amino acid sequence as set forth in SEQ ID NO:8.
4. The nucleic acid molecule of claim 1 , wherein said antibody or antigen-binding portion comprises a heavy chain variable region amino acid sequence as set forth in SEQ ID NO:7; and a light chain variable region amino acid sequence as set forth in SEQ ID NO:8.
5. The nucleic acid molecule of claim 1 , wherein said antibody comprises a heavy chain amino acid sequence as set forth in SEQ ID NO:9; and a light chain amino acid sequence as set forth in SEQ ID NO:10.
6. An isolated vector comprising the nucleic acid molecule of claim 1 .
7. An isolated host cell transformed with the vector of claim 6 .
8. A method for preparing an anti-α5β1 antibody or antigen-binding portion thereof, comprising culturing the host cell of claim 7 under conditions that result in production of the antibody or antigen-binding portion, and isolating the antibody or antigen-binding portion from the host cell or culture.
