Abstract

The present disclosure relates to anti-SSEA4 antibodies and bindings fragments thereof comprising specific complementarity determining regions capable of high affinity binding to SSEA4 molecules and SSEA4-associated expressing tumor cells, such as breast cancer, pancreatic cancer, and renal cancer cells. The anti-SSEA4 antibodies and binding fragments induce ADCC or CDC effects in the targeted tumor cells and inhibit and/or reduce the cancer/tumor proliferation. The present disclosure also provides anti-SSEA4 antibodies and binding fragments thereof as a pharmaceutical composition for treating cancer. In addition, the anti-SSEA4 antibodies and binding fragments are useful in the diagnosis of cancers.
