US Patent 11242400 CD123 binding proteins and related compositions and methods

The present disclosure relates to protein molecules that specifically bind to CD123, which may have at least one humanized or human CD123-binding domain. Such molecules are useful for the treatment of cancer. The protein molecule binding to CD123 may have a second binding domain that binds to another target. In one embodiment, multi-specific polypeptide molecules bind both CD123-expressing cells and the T-cell receptor complex on T-cells to induce target-dependent T-cell cytotoxicity, activation, and proliferation. The disclosure also provides pharmaceutical compositions comprising the CD123-binding polypeptide molecules, nucleic acid molecules encoding these polypeptides and methods of making these molecules.
