bispecific antibodiesFabFc heterodimerizationfusion proteinsimmunoglobulinscFvDuring the past two decades we have seen a phenomenal evolution of bispecific antibodies for therapeutic applications. The ‘zoo’ of bispecific antibodies is populated by many different species, comprising around 100 different formats...
The term bispecific antibody (bsAb) is used to describe a large family of molecules designed to recognize two different epitopes or antigens. BsAbs come in many formats, ranging from relatively small proteins, merely consisting of two linked antigen-binding fragments, to large immunoglobulin G (Ig...
Bispecific antibodies (bsAbs) target two different epitopes. These are an up-and-coming class of biologics, with two such therapeutics (emicizumab and blinatumomab) FDA approved and on the market, and many more in clinical trials. While the first reporte

Bispecific antibodies have moved from being an academic curiosity with therapeutic promise to reality, with two molecules being currently commercialized (H
type of antibody-based therapy may overcome the limitations of monoclonal antibodies, and it has the potential to disrupt the current treatment paradigm in oncology. Bispecific antibodies are proteins engineered to recognize 2 different targets at the same time. Therapeutics based on bispecific ...
Bispecific antibodies: How do they work? Targeting of two (or more) validated pathways to enhance therapeutic efficacy represents an attractive and logical application of BsAbs in IBD. Moreover, the unique ability of BsAbs to serve as bridging molecules between distinct therapeutic targets provides ...
Disclosed are bispecific antibodies comprising a first antibody binding specificity which confers the ability of the bispecific antibody to cross the blood-brain barrier, and a second antibody specificity conferring the ability of the bispecific antibody to bind to a β-amyloid epitope. Also disclosed ...
It offers the IgM platform to expand upon the inherent properties of IgM antibodies and to allow for the rapid development of engineered therapeutic antibodies. The firm’s product pipeline includes IGM-2323, which is a CD20 x CD3 bispecific IgM antibody designed to treat patients with B cell ...
Studies of breast cancer therapy have examined the improvement of bispecific trastuzumab/pertuzumab antibodies interacting simultaneously with two different epitopes of the human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2). Here, we describe the creation and production of plant-made bispecific antibodies based...
