In contrast to chemical medicines, biopharmaceuticals exhibit reduced side effects and enhanced therapeutic efficacy. Antibody therapies have significantly advanced since the first monoclonal antibody's approval in 1986, now dominating the pharmaceutical market with seven out of the top 10 biopharmaceuticals. The bispecific antibody has a distinct capability to bind to two antigens simultaneously, unlike conventional monoclonal antibodies that target just one antigen. The notion of bispecific antibodies was initially introduced in 1960, and by 1997, the first symmetrical form of bispecific antibody was successfully produced. Subsequently, extensive research has been conducted on bispecific antibodies, leading to a significant milestone in 2014 when blinatumomab became the first FDA-approved drug to treat acute lymphocytic leukemia. Despite having a relatively shorter history compared to monoclonal antibodies, bispecific antibodies have proven their potential by targeting two antigens simultaneously, thereby rendering them highly effective as anti-cancer drugs. As of 2023, there are a total of 11 globally approved bispecific antibodies, with six of them receiving approval from FDA. In light of the rapidly expanding market for bispecific antibodies, this review article comprehensively explores the attributes, historical background, applications, and market status of bispecific antibodies. Additionally, it sheds light on the present trends in bispecific antibody development, drawing insights from 96 research articles and 105 clinical studies. Excitingly, we anticipate further progress in the development of bispecific antibodies and clinical trials on a global scale, with the aspiration of utilizing them not only in cancer treatment but also for addressing diverse medical conditions.

This study was carried out to develop an immunoassay for the diagnosis of the pregnancy and ovarian function of domestic animals. Using 2E92C10 monoclonal antibody(McAb) generated against estrone-3-glucuronide(E1-3-G) and appeared a high cross-reactivity with estrone-3-sulfate(E1-3-S), chemiluminesence immunoassay (CIA) to detect E1-3-S was developed. 2E92C10 McAb cross-reacted with E1-3-S (30%) was purified from ascites fluid using protein G sepharose gel column. The purity of purified antibody fraction was monitored by SDS-PAGE and was better compared to that of crude ascite fluid. The soild and liquid phase CIA for E1-3-S were established utilizing 2E92C10 antibody and E1-3-G-ABEI conjugate used as a tracer. As the results, the titer of 2E92C10 antibody was 5g/ml in soild phase and 1:2000 in liquid phase. The sensitivity on soild and solid phase CIA were about 200 pg/ml. These results indicate that CIA for measurement of E1-3-S was successfully developed by using ant-E1-3-G McAb cross-reacted with E1-3-S and could be usefully used to research this area.

These experiments were undertaken as a basic study to develop immunocontraceptive vaccine and to understand the role of zona pellucidae in early fertilization process by investigating the effect of monoclonal and polyclonal antibody to porcine zona pellucidae and polyclonal antibody to mouse zona pellucidae on the fertilization of porcine and mouse eggs in vitro. The results obtained in these experiments were summarized as follows : 1. Treatment of porcine and mouse eggs with undiluted anti-zona serum produced intense precipitation layer on the poricne and mouse zonae, respectively, thus resulting in the total inhibition of sperm adherence on surface of zona. 2. In vitro fertilization of eggs pre-treated with 0.3∼10% of various antibodies was examined, and resulting in that 5 and 10% of rabbit polyclonal antibodies to porcine zona inhibited completely both in vitro fertilization and polyspermy of porcine eggs while monoclonal to porcine zona and rabbit polyclonal antibody to mouse zona did not inhibit in vitro fertilization but monoclonal antibody reduced the rate of polyspermy compared to that of control group. Almost the same results were obtained in the study on the effect of anti-zona serum on in vitro fertilization of mouse eggs.

본 연구에서는 효소면역진단법을 이용하여 사람의 아포지단백질 A-I에 대한 단일클론항체의 해리상수 (Kd)를 측정하고자 하였다. 먼저 단일클론항체와 항원을 평형에 도달할 때까지 액체상에서 반응시킨 후, 평형상태에서 항원과 결합하지 못하고 남아있는 항체를 미세적정판에 결합되어 있는 항원과 반응시킨다. 그 다음 결합된 항체의 양이 효소면역분석법에 의하여 측정한다. 본 실험방법 을 이용하여 측정된 아포지단백질 A-I에 대한 단일클론항체의 해리상수는 정제된 형태의 경우 0.625$\times$$10^{-9}$이었으며, 정제되지 않은 하이브리도마 배양액의 경우 0.720$\times$$10^{-9}$이었다. 이 방법은 간단하고 재생성이 높으며, 정확하고 방사선 동위원소를 사용하지 않는 등 많은 장점을 가진 것으로 생각된다.

Anti-progesterone monoclonal antibody injected intraperitonially as a single dose(100$\mu\textrm{g}$) 48hours post coitum(p.c.) almostly blocked pregnancy in ICR mice. The blocking rate of pregnancy in mice treated with antibody were decreased proportionally according to dose of antibody injected ; the rate were 60%, 57% and 17% as the antibody of 10$\mu\textrm{g}$, 50$\mu\textrm{g}$ and 100$\mu\textrm{g}$ were injected respectively. Blood serum progesterone concentration was greatly increased(21 times) after treatment(100$\mu\textrm{g}$), by virtue of high-affinity binding by antibody in circulation of non-pregnant mice in coompared with that of control group at day 10 p.c.. The concentration was about 1.6 times higher in the pregnant mice than in the non-pregnant mice in antibody treated group. In control group, the progesterone concentration was over 7 times higher in the pregnant mice than in non-pregnant mice at day 5 p.c..

As previously reported, an immunoglobulin M (IgM) monoclonal antibody (MAb) B6.1, specific for a cell wall B-l,2-mannotriose, was protective against vaginal infection due to Candida albicans when mice were treated with the antibody. In this study, the role of neutrophil was examined in the protective effect of MAb B6.1 against vaginal infection. To deplete neutrophils, mice were given intravenously rat anti-mouse neutrophile MAb RB6-8C5 prior to intraperitoneal administration of MAb B6.1 to these mice. The mice were examined for antibody in their reproductive tract. By an ELISA, MAb B6.1 was found in the vaginal homogenates, but no antibody was detected in vaginal lavage materials. The neutropenia was induced by a single dose of the anti-neutrophil antibody, but lymphocytes were also partially depleted. The protective effect of MAb B6.1 was decreased when mice pretreated with MAb RB6-8C5 were given the anti-Candida antibody before challenge with C. albicans yeast cells intravaginally. These results show that neutrophils are involved in the MAb B6.1 protection against Candida vaginal infection.

In order to diagnose canine heartworm infection by antigen capture ELISA, the crude somatic(S), partial somatic(below 45kDa) and excretory/secretory(E/S) antigen of adult heartworm were identified and the antigenicity was examined by silver stain, immunoblot and ELISA. Then, production of monoclonal antibody to specific antigen carried out in this experiment. The bands to S antigen and E/S antigen were recognized between 10 and 200kDa and common bands were recognized strongly 14, 18, 28, 43kDa by silver stain. By western blot analysis, fractions to S antigen were recognized 14, 16, 18, 20, 24, 28, 32, 43, 50, 55kDa, etc. and only a 14kDa to E/S antigen in positive sera which were positive in modified Knott's test and necropsy. In ELISA, the positive sera reacted to antigens(SA, $SA_{45}$, E/S) were significantly different from negative sera by Student's t-test(p<0.05). Four hybridoma cell lines(14, 16, 17, 32kDa) than produce specific monoclonal antibodies for these antigens were obtained by immunizing BALB/c mice with a partially purified somatic antigen (below 45kDa) preparation, by fusing spleen cells with SP2/O cell myeloma cells, and by screening cell culture supernatants for antibody. In these results, it was confirmed that partial somatic antigen(below 45kDa) or E/S antigen can be used for serologic diagnosis of heartworm infection and monoclonal antibody reacting with specific antigen(14kDa) can be used for antigen capture ELISA in prepatent period of canine heartworm infection.
