Abstract

This disclosure provides antibodies and antigen-binding fragments that are derived from 3bgf and that can be administered to an individual that is infected or suspected of being infected with a virus. Antibodies and antigen-binding fragments herein can be capable of treating or curing the virus, and which may provide protection against the virus for up to several weeks. Antibodies and antigen-binding fragments herein can be used to diagnose a SARS CoV-2 infection.

Claims (25)

2. An antibody or an antigen-binding fragment that comprises the CDRs of claim 1 , and that selectively binds to a SARS-CoV-2, that comprises a VH having an amino acid sequence that is at least 90% identical to SEQ ID NO: 155 and a VL having an amino acid sequence that is at least 90% identical to SEQ ID NO: 179.

3. The antibody or the antigen-binding fragment of claim 2 , wherein the antibody is an IgG, an IgM, an IgE, an IgA, an IgD, or is derived therefrom.

4. The antibody or the antigen-binding fragment of claim 3 , wherein the antibody is an IgG selected from the group consisting of an IgG1, an IgG2a, an IgG2b, an IgG3, and an IgG4.

5. The antibody or the antigen-binding fragment of claim 2 , wherein the antibody comprises a monoclonal antibody, a grafted antibody, a chimeric antibody, a human antibody, or a humanized antibody.

6. The antibody or the antigen-binding fragment of claim 2 , that comprises a binding affinity of less than 200 nM.

7. The antibody or the antigen-binding fragment of claim 2 , wherein the antigen-binding fragment comprises a Fab, a Fab′, a F(ab′) 2 , a variable fragment (Fv), a triabody, a tetrabody, a minibody, a bispecific F(ab′) 2 , a trispecific F(ah′) 2 , a diabody, a bispecific diabody, a single chain variable fragment (scFv), a scFv-Fc, a Fab-Fc, a VHH, or a bispecific scFv.

8. The antibody or the antigen-binding fragment of claim 2 , wherein the antibody or the antigen-binding fragment selectively binds to a receptor binding domain (RBD) of SARS-CoV-2.

9. The antibody or the antigen-binding fragment of claim 1 , that comprises a binding affinity of less than 200 nM.

10. The antibody or the antigen-binding fragment of claim 1 , wherein the antibody is an IgG, an IgM, an IgE, an IgA, an IgD, or is derived therefrom.

11. The antibody or the antigen-binding fragment of claim 10 , wherein the antibody is an IgG selected from the group consisting of an IgG1, an IgG2a, an IgG2b, an IgG3, and an IgG4.

12. The antibody or the antigen-binding fragment of claim 1 , wherein the antibody comprises a monoclonal antibody, a grafted antibody, a chimeric antibody, a human antibody, or a humanized antibody.

13. The antibody or the antigen-binding fragment of claim 1 , wherein the antibody or the antigen-binding fragment selectively binds to a receptor binding domain (RBD) of SARS-CoV-2.

14. The antibody or the antigen-binding fragment of claim 1 , wherein the antigen-binding fragment comprises a Fab, a Fab′, a F(ab′) 2 , a variable fragment (Fv), a triabody, a tetrabody, a minibody, a bispecific F(ab′) 2 , a trispecific F(ab′) 2 , a diabody, a bispecific diabody, a single chain variable fragment (scFv), a scFv-Fc, a Fab-Fc, a VHH, or a bispecific scFv.

15. An antibody or an antigen-binding fragment that selectively binds to a SARS-CoV-2, that comprises:

(i) a VH CDR1 having an amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 78, a VH CDR2 having an amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 104, a VH CDR3 having an amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 132, a VL CDR1 having an amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 15, a VL CDR2 having an amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 30, and a VL CDR3 having an amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 50;

(ii) a VH CDR1 having an amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 77, a VH CDR2 having an amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 103, a VH CDR3 having an amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 131, a VL CDR1 having an amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 14, a VL CDR2 having an amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 32, and a VL CDR3 having an amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 49;

(iii) a VH CDR1 having an amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 66, a VH CDR2 having an amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 92, a VH CDR3 having an amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 120, a VL CDR1 having an amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 3, a VL CDR2 having an amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 29, and a VL CDR3 having an amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 38; or

(iv) a VH CDR1 having an amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 202, a VH CDR2 having an amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 203, a VH CDR3 having an amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 201, a VL CDR1 having an amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 204, a VL CDR2 having an amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 205, and a VL CDR3 having an amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 206.

16. An antibody or an antigen-binding fragment that selectively binds to a SARS-CoV-2, that comprises a VH chain having an amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 155 and a VL chain having an amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 179.
