Anti-TIGIT antibodies
The present invention relates to anti-TIGIT antibodies, as well as use of these antibodies in the treatment of diseases such as cancer and infectious disease.
1. A method of producing an antibody or antigen binding fragment thereof comprising:
a. culturing a host cell comprising a polynucleotide encoding a heavy chain and/or a light chain of an antibody or antigen binding fragment thereof under conditions favorable to expression of the polynucleotide; and
b. optionally, recovering the antibody or antigen binding fragment thereof from the host cell and/or culture medium,
wherein the antibody or antigen binding fragment thereof binds to human T cell immunoreceptor with Ig and ITIM domains (TIGIT), and
wherein the antibody or antigen binding fragment thereof is selected from the group consisting of:
(i) an antibody or antigen binding fragment thereof comprising: a heavy chain variable region CDR1 comprising the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO:1, a heavy chain variable region CDR2 comprising the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO:2, a heavy chain variable region CDR3 comprising the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO:3, 45, 46, or 47, a light chain variable region CDR1 comprising the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO:4, a light chain variable region CDR2 comprising the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO:5, and a light chain variable region CDR3 comprising the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO:6, 57, 58, 59, 60, 61, or 62; and
(ii) an antibody or antigen binding fragment thereof comprising: a heavy chain variable region CDR1 comprising the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO:17, a heavy chain variable region CDR2 comprising the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO:18, 81, 82, 83, 84, 85, 86, 87, or 88, a heavy chain variable region CDR3 comprising the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO:19, a light chain variable region CDR1 comprising the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO:20, a light chain variable region CDR2 comprising the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO:21, and a light chain variable region CDR3 comprising the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO:22.
