How do you develop a bispecific antibody?
Due to the single-chain configuration, bispecific antibodies can be build by connecting two scFvs through a linker (connector). Thus, these molecules are bivalent with one valency for each antigen, with a typically size in the range of 50–60 kDa.
What is a bispecific drug?
Bispecific antibodies aim to treat multifaceted, complex diseases by engaging two disease targets with one molecule. Standard antibody drugs are designed to specifically target a single antigen.

What does antibodies, bispecific mean?
Bispecific antibodies (BsAbs) are designed to bind two targets simultaneously, presumably thereby augmenting the impact on each of the targeted pathways; targets are often assumed to be expressed in the same Site of Action (SoA), although this assumption is not mandatory for a bispecific modality.
How antibodies antigens and antibiotics are different?
Antibodies are proteins made by your immune system to try and protect you. Antibodies are created when your immune system reacts to toxins, pollen, and infectious organisms. Your body is constantly making antibodies, so it has a constant supply ready to fight thousands of different threats. In the immune system, antibodies work against antigens.
