Generation and Selection of Human Monoclonal Antibodies from the H2L2 Mouse
Human antibody-producing transgenic H2L2TM mice have been used to generate monoclonal antibodies to therapeutic targets. Transgenic animals producing human antibodies are by far the most successful approach to obtaining “fully human” therapeutic antibodies. This is largely due to the ability to move transgenic animalderived human antibodies from lead selection directly to clinical development without undergoing lead optimization steps common with humanization of murine Abs or affinity maturation of Abs from phage or other synthetic libraries.
