Abstract

The present invention relates to a binding molecule comprising a first and a second binding domain, wherein the first binding domain is capable of binding to epitope clusters of BCMA, and the second binding domain is capable of binding to the T cell CD3 receptor complex. Moreover, the invention provides a nucleic acid sequence encoding the binding molecule, a vector comprising said nucleic acid sequence and a host cell transformed or transfected with the vector. Furthermore, the invention provides a process for the production of the binding molecule of the invention, a medical use of the binding molecule and a kit comprising the binding molecule.
