Cancer treatment using anti-nkg2a antibodies
The granted patent US12037392B2 outlines a method for treating cancer using an anti-NKG2A antibody that specifically binds to and neutralizes the inhibitory activity of the NKG2A receptor. The claims detail that the antibody consists of a heavy chain and a light chain with specific sequences (SEQ ID NO: 3 and SEQ ID NO: 7, respectively) and is designed to compete with HLA-E for binding to NKG2A. The treatment regimen involves administering the antibody intravenously to the patient at a dosage ranging from 4 to 10 mg/kg body weight, with a recommended frequency of twice per month. The method allows for various administration cycles, including at least four doses, and specifies that the antibody can be given as a loading dose followed by maintenance doses.
The patent further specifies that the method is applicable to individuals with different types of cancer, including hematological tumors and solid tumors. Notably, it mentions specific cancers such as lung cancer and head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC), with additional details on the types of HNSCC that can be treated, including oropharyngeal tumors, larynx tumors, and tumors of the oral cavity or hypopharynx. The claims emphasize the flexibility in dosing and administration schedules, allowing for tailored treatment approaches based on the patient's condition and response to therapy.
