The present disclosure provides anti-CTLA-4 antibodies and methods of producing and using the antibodies. The present disclosure also provides nucleic acids encoding the anti-CTLA-4 antibodies and host cells containing the nucleic acids. Furthermore, the present disclosure provides polypeptides containing a variant Fc region containing amino acid alterations in a parent Pc region and methods of producing and using the polypeptides.

Anti-CTLA-4 antibody and use thereof

The present disclosure provides anti-CTLA-4 antibodies and methods of producing and using the antibodies. The present disclosure also provides nucleic acids encoding the anti-CTLA-4 antibodies and host cells containing the nucleic acids. Furthermore, the present disclosure provides polypeptides containing a variant Fc region containing amino acid alterations in a parent Fc region and methods of producing and using the polypeptides.

An objective of the present disclosure is to provide anti-CD137 antigen-binding molecules which have immunocyte-activating effect, cytotoxic activity, or anti-tumor activity, and meanwhile have reduced effect on non-tumor tissues such as normal tissues and produce less side effects, and methods of using the same. Anti-CD137 antigen-binding molecules which have immunocyte-activating effect, cytotoxic activity, or anti-tumor activity, and meanwhile have reduced effect on non-tumor tissues such as normal tissues and produce less side effects, are provided by discovering and producing CD137 antigen-binding molecules whose binding activity to CD137 depends on various substances (for example, small molecule compounds) in target tissues. Methods of using the same, pharmaceutical formulations, and such are also provided. The present disclosure also provides an antigen-binding molecule whose binding activity to an antigen varies depending on a small molecule compound, a preparation method thereof, and uses thereof.

Anti-CD137 antigen-binding molecule and utilization thereof

An objective of the present invention is to provide target tissue-specific antigen-binding molecules, antigen-binding molecules whose antigen-binding activity varies depending on the concentration of an unnatural compound, libraries comprising a plurality of the antigen-binding molecules which are different from one another, pharmaceutical compositions comprising the antigen-binding molecules, methods of screening for the antigen-binding molecules, and methods for producing the antigen-binding molecules. The present inventors created antigen-binding domains whose antigen-binding activity varies depending on the concentration of a small molecule compound or antigen-binding molecules containing an antigen-binding domain, and libraries comprising a plurality of the antigen-binding domains which are different from one another or antigen-binding domains, and demonstrated that the above-noted objective could be achieved by using the libraries. Various diseases originating from target tissues can be treated in a target tissue-specific manner by using the antigen-binding molecules of the present invention.

Antigen-binding molecules, the antigen-binding activity of which varies according to the concentration of compounds, and libraries of said molecules
