Abstract
Described are binding molecules, e.g., human monoclonal antibodies, that bind to influenza virus comprising HA of the H3 subtype, e.g., H3N2, and have a broad neutralizing activity against such influenza virus. Described are polynucleotides encoding the binding molecules, their sequences and compositions comprising the binding molecules and methods of identifying or producing the binding molecules. The binding molecules can be used in the diagnosis, prophylaxis, and/or treatment of influenza virus H3N2 infection. The binding molecules may provide cross-subtype protection, such that infections with H3, H7, and/or H10-based influenza subtypes can be prevented and/or treated.
