A patent application (Publication Number: US20240033359A1) discloses a guanylyl cyclase C (GCC) binding agent with specific heavy chain variable region (VH) sequences. The agent includes VH regions with complementarity determining region (CDR) sequences, such as HYYWS, RIYPSGSTSYNPSLKS, and DRSTGWSEWNSDL, among others. These sequences are crucial for the binding agent's effectiveness in targeting GCC. Additionally, the agent comprises immunoglobulin heavy chain variable regions that are at least 90% identical to specific amino acid sequences, ensuring high specificity and efficacy in binding to GCC.

Furthermore, the patent application details methods of treating cancer by administering the GCC binding agent to individuals in need of treatment. The disclosed agent is particularly effective in treating gastrointestinal cancers, including colorectal cancer, stomach cancer, and esophageal cancer. The pharmaceutical composition containing the GCC binding agent and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier is designed for efficient delivery and treatment. Additionally, the application covers methods of inducing an immune response and cytotoxicity, as well as detecting the presence of cancer in mammals using the GCC binding agent.
