abstract |
The present invention provides novel humanized anti-human C-C chemokine receptor type 7 (CCR7) antibodies and compositions comprising such antibodies. The antibodies and compositions are useful in the treatment of a cancer of which the tumour cells express a CCR7 receptor, in the treatment of inflammatory conditions, conditions or complications arising from tissue or organ transplantations, and conditions or complications arising from or associated with fibrosis. The invention further provides nucleic acid molecules encoding the anti-CCR7 antibodies, cells expressing the anti-CCR7 antibodies and methods for producing the anti-CCR7 antibodies. |
