СПОСОБЫ ПОЛУЧЕНИЯ ПОЛИСПЕЦИФИЧНЫХ, ПОЛИВАЛЕНТНЫХ СРЕДСТВ ИЗ VH И VL ДОМЕНОВ

摘要

This invention relates to multi-specific, multivalent binding proteins and methods of generating these agents from VH and VL domains. The binding protein has three or more binding sites where at least one binding site binds with a hapten moiety and at least two sites bind with target antigens. The present invention further relates to bispecific, trivalent heterodimers that have at least one binding site with affinity towards molecules containing a histamine-succinyl-glycyl (HSG) moiety and at least two binding sites with affinity towards carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA), and to trispecific, trivalent heterodimers that have at least one binding site with affinity towards molecules containing a HSG moiety, at least one binding sites with affinity towards CEA, and at least one binding site having affinity towards a metal-chelate complex indium-DTPA. Moreover, this invention relates to recombinant vectors useful for the expression of these functional heterodimers in a suitable host.
