Abstract

The present invention is novel anti-human-CC-motif-receptor-7 (anti-human-CCR7) antibodies useful for treating tissue fibrosis or cancer, and pharmaceutical compositions containing the anti-human-CCR7 antibodies. The invention includes an anti-human-CCR7 antibody specifically binding to an extracellular domain of human CCR7, having a heavy chain CDR3 containing an amino acid sequence represented by SEQ ID NO: 7, SEQ ID NO: 17, SEQ ID NO: 27, SEQ ID NO: 37, SEQ ID NO: 47, SEQ ID NO: 57, SEQ ID NO: 67, or SEQ ID NO: 77. The invention also includes an anti-human-CCR7 antibody having heavy chain CDRs 1-3 and light chain CDRs 1-3 containing amino acid sequences represented by SEQ ID NOs: 5-10, 15-20, 25-30, 35-40, 45-50, 55-60, 65-70, or 75-80. Preferably, the antibody has an activity of interfering with a CCR7-dependent intracellular signal transduction mechanism caused by CCR7 ligand stimulation.
