More Information
Summary:The present invention relates to antibodies (and fragments, variants, fusions and derivatives thereof) with multivalent binding specificity for CD40, which have a potency for dendritic cell activation which is higher than, or is equal to, the potency for B cell activation and wherein the antibody, antigen-binding fragment, or fusion, variant or derivative thereof has an affinity (KD) for CD40 of less than 1×10−10 M, which have utility in the treatment of diseases such as cancer. The invention also relates to pharmaceutical compositions, uses, methods and kits comprising such antibodies.
