AUTOPHILIC ANTIBODIES AND METHOD OF MAKING THE SAME

摘要

Antibodies having noncovalent, autophilic properties are disclosed. The autophilic antibodies are derived from antibodies conjugated with an autophilic peptide. Such autophilic antibodies can promote apoptosis of target cells and enhance therapeutic efficacies in the treatment of patients with diseases or disorders responsive to antibody therapy. Compositions containing the antibodies, and methods of making and using the antibodies are also disclosed.
