ABSTRACT:
A hybrid ligand molecular composed of an antibody combining site that binds to a T cell receptor complex structure and is capable of activating cytotoxic T lymphocytes linked to a target cell-specific antibody is disclosed. This ligand molecule can bind to an antigen on the surface of a target cell and to cytotoxic effector T lymphocyte cell receptor complex structures. A composition and a method for killing tumor cells with the hybrid ligand molecule of this invention are provided.
