Abstract
The invention relates to a companion diagnostic antibody-like binding protein based on the humanized monoclonal antibody, DS6, to be used as diagnostic tool for in vivo detection and quantification of the tumor-associated MUC1-sialoglycotope, CA6.
Claims12
An antibody-like binding protein that specifically binds CA6, wherein the antibody-like binding protein comprises two polypeptides having structures represented by the formulas [I] and [II] below:
- VL1-L1-VL2-CL [I]
- VH1-L2-VH2-CH1 [II]
- wherein:
- VL1 is a DS6-based immunoglobulin light chain variable domain comprising SEQ ID NO:
- 2;
- VL2 is a DS6-based immunoglobulin light chain variable domain comprising SEQ ID NO:
- 2;
- VH1 is a DS6-based immunoglobulin heavy chain variable domain comprising SEQ ID NO:
- 8;
- VH2 is a DS6-based immunoglobulin heavy chain variable domain comprising SEQ ID NO:
- 8;
- CL is an immunoglobulin light chain constant domain;
- CH1 is an immunoglobulin CH1 heavy chain constant domain;
- L1 and L2 are amino acid linkers;
- wherein the polypeptides of formula I and the polypeptides of formula II form a bivalent monospecific tandem immunoglobulin antibody-like binding protein;
- and
- wherein the antibody-like protein further comprises a chelator.
