HIGH-AFFINITY T CELL RECEPTOR THAT RECOGNIZES SSX2
Provided is a high-affinity T cell receptor (TCR) that recognizes SSX2, wherein the TCR has the property of binding to a KASEKIFYV (SEQ ID NO: 29)-HLA A0201 complex, and the binding affinity of the TCR to the KASEKIFYV (SEQ ID NO: 29)-HLA A0201 complex is at least twice the binding affinity of a wild-type TCR to the KASEKIFYV (SEQ ID NO: 29)-HLA A0201 complex. Also provided is a fusion molecule of such a TCR with a therapeutic agent. Such a TCR can be used alone or in combination with a therapeutic agent to target tumor cells presenting the KASEKIFYV (SEQ ID NO: 29)-HLA A0201 complex.
NOVEL DARPin BASED MULTI-SPECIFIC T-CELL ENGAGERS
The present invention relates to recombinant multi-specific proteins comprising binding agents with binding specificity for different targets, such as, e.g. CD3, CD33, CD123 and CD70. In addition, the invention relates to nucleic acids encoding such multi-specific proteins, pharmaceutical compositions comprising such proteins or nucleic acids, and the use of such binding proteins, nucleic acids or pharmaceutical compositions in methods for treating or diagnosing diseases, such as cancer, e.g. acute myeloid leukaemia (AML), in a mammal, including a human.
NEONATAL FC RECEPTOR BINDING AFFIMERS
