1. A humanized antibody comprising the complementarity-determining regions (CDRs) of murine monoclonal antibody BAT-1 (mBAT-1), wherein the humanized antibody comprises:
- a light chain variable region selected from the group consisting of;
BATRKA (SEQ. ID NO.
15), BATRKB (SEQ. ID NO.
16), BATRKC (SEQ. ID NO.
17), and BATRKD (SEQ. ID NO.
18), anda heavy chain variable region selected from the group consisting of;
BATRHA (SEQ. ID NO.
20), BATRHB (SEQ. ID NO.
21), BATRHC (SEQ. ID NO.
22), BATRHD (SEQ. ID NO.
23) and BATRHE (SEQ. ID NO.
24);
wherein the humanized antibody retains the anti-tumor activity of mBAT-1 and is less immunogenic in a human subject than mBAT-1.
