The present invention relates to a novel molecule comprising three binding sites with specificity for a tumor cell, for an effector cell and for a checkpoint molecule, respectively. Moreover, the present invention relates to a pharmaceutical composition comprising such a molecule and to uses of such a molecule.

Trispecific molecule combining specific tumor targeting and local immune checkpoint inhibition

The present invention provides a bispecific construct comprising a first binding domain specifically binding to CD33 and a second binding domain specifically binding to CD3 for use in a method for the treatment of myeloid leukemia, wherein the construct is administered for a maximal period of 14 days followed by a period of at least 14 days without administration of the construct. Moreover, the invention provides a method for the treatment of myeloid leukemia comprising the administration of a therapeutically efficient amount of such bispecific construct and the use of such bispecific construct for the preparation of a pharmaceutical composition for the treatment of myeloid leukemia.

Administration of a bispecific construct binding to CD33 and CD3 for use in a method for the treatment of myeloid leukemia

The present invention provides a combination epigenetic factors and bispecific compounds targeting CD33 and CD3 in the treatment of myeloid leukemia, wherein the epigenetic factor is selected from the group consisting of histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitors, DNA methyltransferase (DNMT) I inhibitors, hydroxyurea, Granulocyte-Colony Stimulating Factor (G-CSF), histone demethylase inhibitors and ATRA (All Trans-retinoic acid). Accordingly, the invention provides a pharmaceutical composition comprising a CD33 targeting compound and at least one epigenetic factor and an epigenetic factor for use in the amelioration and/or treatment of a myeloid leukemia, wherein the epigenetic factor increases the responsiveness of a patient to a CD33 targeting compound. Moreover, the invention provides the use of at least one an epigenetic factor for increasing the responsiveness of a myeloid leukemia patient to a treatment with a CD33 targeting compound, a method for the treatment of a myeloid leukemia, the method comprising the administration of at least one epigenetic factor and a CD33 targeting compound to a patient in the need thereof and a kit comprising a pharmaceutical composition of the invention or an epigenetic factor of the invention and a bispecific CD33 targeting compound.

Combination of epigenetic factors and bispecific compounds targeting CD33 and CD3 in the treatment of myeloid leukemia
