Heterodimeric proteins
The invention provides novel heterodimeric proteins including heterodimeric antibodies.
1. A heterodimeric antibody comprising:
a) a first monomer comprising an anti-CD3 scFv-hinge-CH2-CH3 monomer, wherein CH2-CH3 is a first variant Fc domain and said anti-CD3 scFv comprises an scFv variable heavy chain comprising SEQ ID NO: 397, an scFv variable light chain comprising SEQ ID NO: 398 and a charged linker comprising SEQ ID NO: 450;
b) a second monomer comprising a VH-CH1-hinge-CH2-CH3 monomer, wherein VH is a first variable heavy chain and CH2-CH3 is a second variant Fc domain; and
c) a light chain comprising a first variable light chain;
wherein said CH1-hinge-CH2-CH3 of said second monomer comprises amino acid substitutions N208D/Q295E/N384D/Q418E/N421D,
wherein said first and second variant Fc domains each comprise amino acid substitutions E233P/L234V/L235A/G236del/S267K, and
wherein said first variant Fc domain comprises amino acid substitutions S364K/E357Q and second variant Fc domain comprises amino acid substitutions L368D/K370S, wherein numbering is according to the EU index as in Kabat.
2. The heterodimeric antibody of claim 1 , wherein said first and second variant Fc domains are variant human IgG1, IgG2 or IgG4 variant Fc domains.
3. The heterodimeric antibody of claim 1 , wherein said first and second variant Fc domains are variant human IgG1 Fc domains.
4. A nucleic acid composition comprising:
a) a first nucleic acid encoding said first monomer of claim 1 ;
b) a second nucleic acid encoding said second monomer of claim 1 ; and
c) a third nucleic acid encoding said light chain of claim 1 .
5. An expression vector comprising said first nucleic acid, said second nucleic acid and said third nucleic acid of claim 4 .
6. A host cell comprising said expression vector of claim 5 .
7. A method of producing the heterodimeric antibody of any one of claims 1 to 3 comprising culturing the host cell of claim 6 under conditions to produce the heterodimeric antibody and recovering the heterodimeric antibody from the cell culture.
