Abstract

Anti-DR5 family member antibodies and bispecific antibodies comprising one or more anti-DR5 family member antibodies are disclosed. These antibodies can be used to trigger cell death on DR5 positive cells.

Claims (37)

both amino acid sequence pairs SEQ ID NO: 2 and 4 and SEQ ID NO: 6 and 8; or

one or more of amino acid sequence pairs SEQ ID NO: 35 and 37 and SEQ ID NO: 39 and 41,

the pair of amino acid sequences SEQ ID NO: 35 and 37,

the pair of amino acid sequences SEQ ID NO: 39 and 41, or

both amino acid sequence pairs SEQ ID NO: 35 and 37 and SEQ ID NO: 39 and 41.

3. The composition of claim 1 comprising a bispecific antibody comprising the amino acid sequence pair SEQ ID NO: 2 and 4 and the amino acid sequence pair SEQ ID NO: 6 and 8.

4. The composition of claim 1 comprising a bispecific antibody comprising the amino acid sequence pair SEQ ID NO: 35 and 37 and the amino acid sequence pair SEQ ID NO: 39 and 41.

5. The composition of claim 1 , wherein the polypeptide or polypeptides is/are selected from the group of an Fv, an Fab, an F(ab′)2, an scFv, and an antibody.

6. The composition of claim 5 , wherein the antibody is a monoclonal antibody.

7. The composition of claim 1 , wherein the first or second binding domain comprises the amino acid sequence pairs SEQ ID NO:2 and 4, or SEQ ID NO: 35 and 37.

8. The composition of claim 1 , wherein the first or second binding domain comprises the amino acid sequence pairs SEQ ID NO: 6 and 8, or SEQ ID NO: 39 and 41.

9. The composition of claim 1 , wherein one binding domain comprises the pair of amino acid sequences SEQ ID NO: 2 and 4, and the other binding domain comprises the pair of amino acid sequences SEQ ID NO: 6 and 8.

10. The composition of claim 1 , wherein one binding domain comprises the pair of amino acid sequences SEQ ID NO: 35 and 37, and the other binding domain comprises the pair of amino acid sequences SEQ ID NO: 39 and 41.

11. A polypeptide binding specifically a DR5 receptor, comprising one or two binding domains comprising a pair of VH and VL chains wherein the VH chain contains a CDR1 of sequence SEQ ID NO: 13, a CDR2 of sequence SEQ ID NO: 14, a CDR3 of sequence SEQ ID NO: 15; and the VL chain contains a CDR1 of sequence SEQ ID NO: 16, a CDR2 of amino acid sequence FAS, a CDR3 of sequence SEQ ID NO: 17.

12. A polypeptide binding specifically a DR5 receptor, comprising one or two binding domains comprising a pair of VH and VL chains wherein the VH chain contains a CDR1 of sequence SEQ ID NO: 18, a CDR2 of sequence SEQ ID NO: 14, a CDR3 of sequence SEQ ID NO: 19; and the VL chain contains a CDR1 of sequence SEQ ID NO: 20, a CDR2 of amino acid sequence RTS, a CDR3 of sequence SEQ ID NO: 21.

13. A bispecific or multivalent polypeptide binding specifically a DR5 receptor, which comprises:
