Abstrakt: Multispecific antibodies that bridge immune effector and tumor cells have shown promising preclinical and clinical efficacies. Here, we isolated and characterized novel llama single-domain antibodies (sdAbs) against CD16. One sdAb, NRC-sdAb048, bound recombinant human and cynomolgus monkey CD16 ectodomains with equivalent affinity ( K D : 1 nM) but did not recognize murine CD16. Binding was similar for human CD16a expressed on NK cells and CD16b (NA2) expressed on neutrophils but dramatically weaker ( K D : ∼6 μM) for the CD16b (NA1) allotype. The sdAb stained primary human peripheral blood NK cells. Irrespective of fusion orientation and linker length, bispecific sdAb-sdAb and sdAb-scFv dimers (anti-CD16/EGFR, anti-CD16/HER2, and anti-CD16/CD19) retained full binding affinity for each target, coengaged both antigens simultaneously, elicited ADCC against target antigen-expressing tumor cells in a reporter bioassay, and triggered target-specific activation and degranulation of primary NK cells as measured via interferon-γ and CD107a expression. These molecules may have applications in cancer immunotherapy.
