CD3 proteins: Targets for bispecific antibodies

A bispecific antibody (BsAb) is a type of artificial protein with the ability to bind to two distinct antigens or two epitopes of one antigen at the same time. Bispecific antibodies can assume a synergistic role of the two monoclonal antibodies and have benefits over the simple combination.

Due to its special biological mechanism, the bispecific antibody has turned out to be an essential branch of therapeutic antibody research and development and has been drawing investments. As per statistics, there are over 180 bispecific antibodies in clinical trials and nearly 260 in pre-clinical development around the world. Among them, CD3 is considered to be the primary target.

CD3 molecules tend to bind to TCR non-covalently to develop a TCR/CD3 receptor complex on the T-cell’s surface. There are four subtypes of CD3 — CD3ε, CD3δ, CD3γ and CD3ζ. CD3δ/CD3ε and CD3γ/CD3ε have the ability to develop the TCR-CD3 complexes through the α/β chain of TCR as heterodimers.

Generally, CD3-targeted therapeutic antibodies recognize the CD3ε in the heterodimer complex to initiate the anti-tumor activity of T cells. But during recombinant expression, CD3E and CD3D have the ability to randomly form faulty heterogeneous complexes, which might result in the loss of bioactivity and huge batch-to-batch inconsistency.

ACROBiosystems has designed a range of homogeneous CD3δ/CD3ε and CD3γ/CD3ε proteins with good bioactivity. They are confirmed as 1:1 heterodimers by non-reductive electrophoresis and MALS as well.

In addition, they exhibit superior performance in therapeutic antibody screening, identification, characterization as well as clinical pharmacokinetic assays, etc. Furthermore, the CD3 products have been successfully utilized for the clinical development of a bispecific antibody. This greatly expedited the process of therapeutic antibody development.
