BISPECIFIC T CELL ACTIVATING ANTIGEN BINDING MOLECULES
First Claim
1. A T cell activating bispecific antigen binding molecule comprising a first and a second antigen binding moiety, one of which is a Fab molecule capable of specific binding to an activating T cell antigen and the other one of which is a Fab molecule capable of specific binding to a target cell antigen, and an Fc domain composed of a first and a second subunit capable of stable association;
- wherein the first antigen binding moiety is(a) a single chain Fab molecule wherein the Fab light chain and the Fab heavy chain are connected by a peptide linker, or(b) a crossover Fab molecule wherein either the variable or the constant regions of the Fab light chain and the Fab heavy chain are exchanged.
