Abstract

Immunoglobulin compositions that simultaneously co-engage antigens, where one of the antigens is bound bivalently and the other antigen is bound monovalently. The novel immunoglobulins described preferably utilize heterodimeric Fc regions.

Claims (91)

1. An antibody analog comprising:

a) a first heavy chain and an associated light chain, wherein said first heavy and light chains form a first antigen binding site, wherein the C-terminus of the CH3 domain of said first heavy chain is covalently attached to a C-terminal variable heavy domain, wherein said first heavy chain comprises a first variant Fc domain;

b) a second heavy chain and an associated light chain, wherein said second heavy and light chains form a second antigen binding site, wherein the C-terminus of the CH3 domain of said second heavy chain is covalently attached to a C-terminal variable light domain; wherein said second heavy chain comprises a second variant Fc domain;

such that said C-terminal variable heavy and light domains form a third antigen binding site, wherein said first and second variant Fc domains are different, and wherein the first and second variant Fc domains have amino acid substitutions selected from the following pairs:
