Application Number: | 08/407,620 |
Patent Claims: | 1. An antibody which binds effectively to the antigen Campath-1, said antibody comprising a constant region of human origin, heavy and light chain variable domain framework
regions which are of human origin, and complementarity determining regions defined by amino acid residues 31 to 35, 50 to 65 and 95 to 102 of the heavy chain as shown in FIG. 2a, and amino acid residues 24-34, 50-56 and 89-97 of the light chain as shown
in FIG. 2b.
2. The antibody of claim 1, wherein the constant region is of the IgG class. 3. A composition for administration to patients comprising an antibody which binds effectively to the antigen Campath-1 and a physiologically acceptable diluent or carrier, said antibody comprising a constant region of human origin, heavy and light chain variable domain framework regions which are of human origin, and complementarity determining regions defined by amino acid residues 31 to 35, 50 to 65 and 95 to 102 of the heavy chain as shown in FIG. 2a, and amino acid residues 24-34, 50-56 and 89-97 of the light chain as shown in FIG. 2b. 4. The composition of claim 3, wherein the constant region is the IgG class. 5. A method of treating a human patient having a lymphoid malignancy, comprising administering to said patient an antibody which binds effectively to the antigen Campath-1, said antibody comprising a constant region of human origin, heavy and light chain variable domain framework regions which are of human origin, and complementarity determining regions defined by amino acid residues 31 to 35, 50 to 65 and 95 to 102 of the heavy chain as shown in FIG. 2a, and amino acid residues 24-34, 50-56 and 89-97 of the light chain as shown in FIG. 2b. 6. The method of claim 5, wherein the constant region is of the IgG class. 7. A method for treating a human patient having a lymphoid malignancy, comprising administering to said patient an antibody which binds effectively to the antigen Campath-1, said antibody comprising a light chain variable domain containing amino acid residues 1 to 108 as identified in the upper lines of sequence information in FIG. 2b, a heavy chain variable domain containing amino acid residues 1 to 26, 28, 29 and 31 to 113, as identified in the upper lines of sequence information in FIG. 2a, wherein residue 27 of said heavy chain variable domain is phenylalanine, and heavy chain constant regions of human origin of the IgG class. 8. A method for treating a human patient having a lymphoid malignancy, comprising administering to said patient an antibody which binds effectively to the antigen Campath-1, said antibody comprising a light chain variable domain containing amino acid residues 1 to 108 as identified in the upper lines of sequence information in FIG. 2b, a heavy chain variable domain containing amino acid residues 1 to 26, 28, 29 and 31 to 113, as identified in the upper lines of sequence information in FIG. 2a, wherein residue 27 of said heavy chain variable domain is phenylalanine and residue 30 of said heavy chain variable domain is threonine, and heavy chain constant regions of human origin of the IgG class. 9. The method of claim 7, wherein the patient has a lymphoma. 10. The method of claim 8, wherein the patient has a lymphoma. 11. The method of claim 7, wherein the heavy chain constant regions are of the IgG.sub.1 type. 12. The method of claim 8, wherein the heavy chain constant regions are of the IgG.sub.1 type. 13. An isolated DNA molecule comprising a sequence encoding an antibody which binds effectively to the antigen Campath-1, said antibody comprising a constant region of human origin, heavy and light chain variable domain framework regions which are of human origin, and complementarity determining regions defined by amino acid residues 31 to 35, 50 to 65 and 95 to 102 of the heavy chain as shown in FIG. 2a, and amino acid residues 24-34, 50-56 and 89-97 of the light chain as shown in FIG. 2b. 14.
