Abstract

The present disclosure is directed to antibodies or antigen-binding portions thereof that specifically bind human CCR8, polynucleotides and vectors encoding the same, and pharmaceutical compositions comprising the same. Some aspects of the disclosure are directed to methods of treating a disease or condition comprising administering the anti-CCR8 antibody to a subject in need thereof.

Claims (33)

1 . A method of treating a subject having a tumor comprising administering to the subject an antibody or an antigen-binding portion thereof comprising a VH chain comprising the amino acid sequence set forth in SEQ ID NO: 41 and comprising a VL chain comprising the amino acid sequence set forth in SEQ ID NO: 43.
