Abstract
We report a rationally designed nanobody activation immunotherapeutic that selectively redirects anti-dinitrophenyl (anti-DNP) antibodies to the surface of HER2-positive breast cancer cells, resulting in their targeted destruction by antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity. As nanobodies are relatively easy to express, stable, can be humanized, and can be evolved to potently and selectively bind virtually any disease-relevant cell surface receptor, we anticipate broad utility of this therapeutic strategy.Entities:
