The field of therapeutic antibodies and especially bi- or multispecific antibodies is growing rapidly. Especially for treating cancers, multispecific antibodies are very promising as there are multiple pathways involved and multispecific antibodies offer the possibility to interfere at two or more sites. Besides being used as therapeutic, multispecific antibodies can be helpful tools in basic research. However, the design and choice of the most appropriate multispecific antibody format is far from trivial. The generation of multispecific antibodies starts with the generation of antibodies directed against the desired targets and then combining the different antigen-binding sites in one molecule...
