Abstract

The present disclosure relates to antibodies binding to tumor discoidin domain receptor 1 (DDR1) and the uses of the antibodies in detecting and treating cancer.

Claims (24)

1. A monoclonal antibody or antigen-binding fragment thereof that specifically binds to discoidin domain receptor 1 (DDR1) protein, comprising:

a light chain variable region comprising an LC-CDR1, an LC-CDR2 and an LC-CDR3,

wherein

the amino acid sequence of the LC-CDR1 comprises the amino acid sequence of amino acids 24-34 of SEQ ID NO: 150,

the amino acid sequence of the LC-CDR2 comprises the amino acid sequence of amino acids 50-56 of SEQ ID NO: 150,

the amino acid sequence of the LC-CDR3 comprises the amino acid sequence of amino acids 89-97 of SEQ ID NO: 150,

and a heavy chain variable region comprising an HC-CDR1, an HC-CDR2, and an HC-CDR3, wherein

the amino acid sequence of the HC-CDR1 comprises the amino acid sequence of amino acids 31-35 of SEQ ID NO: 152,

the amino acid sequence of the HC-CDR2 comprises the amino acid sequence of amino acids 50-65 of SEQ ID NO: 152, and

the amino acid sequence of the HC-CDR3 comprises the amino acid sequence of amino acids 98-110 of SEQ ID NO: 152,

and wherein the monoclonal antibody is a rabbit, a chimeric or a humanized antibody,

and wherein the monoclonal antibody is not a bispecific antibody.

2. An antibody-drug conjugate, comprising the monoclonal antibody or antigen-binding fragment thereof of claim 1 , and an anti-tumor drug, wherein the anti-tumor drug is linked to the monoclonal antibody or antigen-binding fragment thereof.

3. A pharmaceutical composition comprising the monoclonal antibody or antigen-binding fragment thereof of claim 1 , and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier.

4. The monoclonal antibody or antigen-binding fragment thereof of claim 1 , wherein the amino acid sequence of the light chain variable region comprises the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 150 and the amino acid sequence of the heavy chain variable region comprises the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 152.

5. The monoclonal antibody or antigen-binding fragment thereof of claim 1 , which is a humanized antibody.

6. The monoclonal antibody or antigen-binding fragment thereof of claim 1 , which comprises a heavy chain of IgG 1 , IgG 2 , IgG 3 , or IgG 4 subtype.

7. The monoclonal antibody or antigen-binding fragment thereof of claim 1 , which comprises a heavy chain of IgG 1 subtype.

8. The monoclonal antibody or antigen-binding fragment thereof of claim 1 , wherein the antigen-binding fragment is a ScFv (single chain fragment variable) antibody, Fab fragment, F(ab′) 2 fragment, or Fv fragment.

9. A pharmaceutical composition comprising the monoclonal antibody or antigen-binding fragment thereof of claim 4 , and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier.

10. The monoclonal antibody or antigen-binding fragment thereof of claim 1 , which is a humanized antibody comprising two IgG 1 heavy chains and two kappa light chains.

11. The monoclonal antibody or antigen-binding fragment thereof of claim 4 , which is a humanized antibody comprising two IgG 1 heavy chains and two kappa light chains.

12. A pharmaceutical composition comprising the monoclonal antibody or antigen-binding fragment thereof of claim 10 , and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier.

13. A pharmaceutical composition comprising the monoclonal antibody or antigen-binding fragment thereof of claim 11 , and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier.
