Native human antibodies for immune checkpoint modulation targets TIM-3 and B7-H3
Novel monoclonal antibodies directed against immune checkpoint modulator (ICM) proteins TIM-3 and B7-H3 are useful in treating cancer and immune system disorders.
1. A monoclonal antibody (mAb) or effective antigen binding portion thereof, wherein said mAb or portion binds an extracellular portion of the immune checkpoint modulator (ICM) protein TIM-3, said mAb comprising:
(a) the CDRs of the heavy chain variable region of TRL6042 (SEQ ID NO: 1) and the CDRs of the light chain variable region of TRL6042 (SEQ ID NO: 2);
(b) the CDRs of the heavy chain variable region of TRL6061 (SEQ ID NO: 3) and the CDRs of the light chain variable region of TRL6061 (SEQ ID NO: 4);
(c) the CDRs of the heavy chain variable region of TRL6099 (SEQ ID NO: 5) and the CDRs of the light chain variable region of TRL6099 (SEQ ID NO: 6); or
(d) the CDRs of the heavy chain variable region of TRL6120 (SEQ ID NO: 7) and the CDRs of the light chain variable region of TRL6120 (SEQ ID NO: 8).
2. The mAb of claim 1 , wherein said portion is an Fab fragment, an Fab′ fragment, an Fab′-SH fragment, an F(ab′)2 fragment, an Fv antibody, or wherein said mAb is a bispecific or multispecific antibody, a chimeric antibody, species-ized antibody or a complete antibody, including those comprising generic constant regions heterologous to variable regions.
3. A pharmaceutical composition comprising the mAb or portion of claim 1 .
4. The mAb or portion of claim 1 for use in for treatment of patients with cancer, or for diagnostic detection of cancer or for treatment of immune system disorders.
5. A monoclonal antibody (mAb) or effective antigen binding portion thereof, wherein said mAb or portion has affinity for the immune checkpoint modulator (ICM) protein B7-H3, said mAb comprising the or effective antigen-binding portion thereof, which includes the CDRs of the heavy chain variable region of TRL4542 (SEQ ID NO: 9) and the CDRs of the light chain variable region of TRL 4542 (SEQ ID NO: 10).
6. The mAb of claim 5 , wherein said portion is an Fab fragment, an Fab′ fragment, an Fab′-SH fragment, an F(ab′)2 fragment, an Fv antibody, or wherein said mAb is a bispecific or multispecific antibody, a chimeric antibody, species-ized antibody or a complete antibody, including those comprising generic constant regions heterologous to variable regions.
7. A pharmaceutical composition comprising the mAb or portion of claim 5 .
8. The mAb or portion of claim 5 for use in for treatment of patients with cancer, or for diagnostic detection of cancer or for treatment of immune system disorders.
