Targeted binding agents, such antibodies directed to the antigen αVβ6 and uses of such agents are described. In particular, fully human monoclonal antibodies directed to the antigen αVβ6 are disclosed. Nucleotide sequences encoding, and amino acid sequences comprising, heavy and light chain immunoglobulin molecules, particularly sequences corresponding to contiguous heavy and light chain sequences spanning the framework regions and/or complementarity determining regions (CDR's), specifically from FR1 through FR4 or CDR1 through CDR3 are disclosed. Hybridomas or other cell lines expressing such immunoglobulin molecules and monoclonal antibodies are also disclosed.
A method of treating cancer associated with increased activation or expression of αVβ6 in an animal in need thereof, wherein the method comprises administering to the animal a therapeutically effective dose of an antibody that binds αVβ6, wherein the antibody comprises a light chain variable region selected from the group consisting of:
