Humanized and chimeric monoclonal antibodies to CD47
Humanized or chimeric anti-CD47 monoclonal antibodies are provided. The antibodies bind to and neutralize human CD47, and find use in various therapeutic methods. Preferred are non-activating antibodies. Embodiments of the invention include isolated antibodies and derivatives and fragments thereof, pharmaceutical formulations comprising one or more of the humanized or chimeric anti-CD47 monoclonal antibodies; and cell lines that produce these monoclonal antibodies. Also provided are amino acid sequences of the antibodies.
1. A method of detecting the presence of CD47 in a biological sample or tissue, the method comprising:
contacting said sample or tissues with an antibody that specifically binds to human CD47, wherein said light chain comprises each of the CDR sequences set forth in SEQ ID NO:23-25; SEQ ID NO:31-33, or SEQ ID NO:64-66; and wherein said heavy chain comprises each of the CDR sequences set forth in SEQ ID NO:20-22 or SEQ ID NO:28-30 or SEQ ID NO:61-63.
2. The method of claim 1 , wherein said light chain comprises the amino acid sequence set forth in SEQ ID NO:19, 27, 41, 42 or 43.
3. The method of claim 1 , wherein said heavy chain comprises the amino acid sequence set forth in SEQ ID NO:18, 26, 36, 37 or 38.
4. A method of detecting the presence of CD47 in a biological sample or tissue, the method comprising:
contacting said sample or tissues with an antibody that specifically binds to human CD47, wherein said antibody comprises a heavy chain having each of the CDR sequences set forth in SEQ ID NO:20-22 and a light chain having each of the CDR sequences set forth in SEQ ID NO:23-25; or a heavy chain having each of the CDR sequences set forth in SEQ ID NO:28-30 and a light chain having each of the CDR sequences set forth in SEQ ID NO:31-33; or a heavy chain having each of the CDR sequences set forth in SEQ ID NO:61-63 and a light chain having each of the CDR sequences set forth in SEQ ID NO:64-66.
5. The method of claim 4 , wherein the antibody is a humanized monoclonal antibody.
6. The method of claim 4 , wherein the antibody is a chimeric antibody.
7. The method of claim 1 , wherein the antibody variable light (VL) region comprises an amino acid sequence selected from the group consisting of the SEQ ID NO:41, SEQ ID NO: 42 and SEQ ID NO: 43; and variable heavy (VH) region comprises an amino acid sequence selected from the group consisting of the SEQ ID NO:36, SEQ ID NO: 37 and SEQ ID NO: 38.
8. The method of claim 1 , wherein the antibody variable light (VL) region comprises amino acid sequence SEQ ID NO:19; and variable heavy (VH) region comprises amino acid sequence SEQ ID NO:18.
9. The method of claim 1 , wherein the antibody variable light (VL) region comprises amino acid sequence SEQ ID NO:27; and variable heavy (VH) region comprises amino acid sequence SEQ ID NO:26.
