The immunotoxins are fusion proteins consisting of a truncated diphtheria toxin joined to an anti-CD3 antibody, which binds to the CD3 antigen found on the T cell receptor (TCR) of mature T lymphocytes (T cells). The toxin moiety acts to kill cells, the anti-CD3 antibody portion performs cell targeting to direct the toxin to specifically kill T cells, and the bivalency allows the immunotoxin to bind to target cells with greater efficiency than monovalent constructs. Thus, bivalent, anti-CD3 immunotoxins that specifically deplete T cells, such as those constructs created by the inventors, could yield innovative therapeutics for T cell lymphoma and other disorders caused by T cell-related abnormalities.
