Abstract

Disclosed are Synovial Sarcoma X breakpoint 2 binding molecules and methods for their use in the detection and treatment of cancer.

Claims (16)

1. A Synovial Sarcoma X breakpoint 2 (SSX2) binding molecule comprising:

(i) 3 complementarity determining regions (CDRs) from the light chain variable region, wherein

the first CDR comprises the sequence set forth in SEQ ID NO: 1,

the second CDR comprises the sequence set forth in SEQ ID NO: 2, and

the third CDR comprises the sequence set forth in SEQ ID NO: 3; and

(ii) 3 CDRs from the heavy chain variable region, wherein

the first CDR comprises the sequence set forth in SEQ ID NO: 4,

the second CDR comprises the sequence set forth in SEQ ID NO: 5, and

the third CDR comprises the sequence set forth in SEQ ID NO: 6;

wherein the binding molecule targets a SSX2 peptide 41-49 (SEQ ID NO:07).

2. The SSX2 binding molecule of claim 1 , wherein the binding molecule targets the SSX2 peptide 41-49 (SEQ ID NO: 7) in the context of human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-A*0201.

3. The SSX2 binding molecule of claim 1 , wherein the binding molecule is an antibody, diabody, triabody, antigen binding fragment, bi-specific killer engager (BIKE), or tri-specific killer engager (TriKE).

4. The SSX2 binding molecule of claim 3 , wherein the antibody is of IgG1, IgG2, IgG3, IgG4, IgM or IgA isotype.

5. A chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) comprising the Synovial Sarcoma X breakpoint 2 (SSX2) binding molecule of claim 1 .

6. The CAR of claim 5 , further comprising one or more activating intra-cellular domains derived from CD3zeta, CD28, 4-1BB, OX40L or 2B4.

7. A cell comprising the CAR of claim 5 , wherein the cell is a T cell or NK cell.
