FIELD: medicine.

SUBSTANCE: claimed invention relates to the field of biotechnology. Claimed are versions of a humanised anti-CD79b antibody, each of which is characterised by the presence of a light and heavy chain and a set of 6 CDR with a determined amino acid sequence. An epitope of the antibody from 11 amino acids is determined by the Biacore method. Disclosed are: an immunoconjugate of the antibody with a medication or means for inhibiting cell growth, where the antibody is bound with means covalently, and versions of the composition, based on an effective quantity of the immunoconjugate or the antibody, used for inhibiting B-cell proliferation; as well as a method of determining CD79b in a sample with the application of the antibody. Described are: an antibody-coding polynucleotide, as well as an expression vector and an isolated cell, containing the vector for obtaining the antibody. Disclosed are versions of applying the antibody or immunoconjugate for obtaining the medication for inhibiting the growth of CD79b-expressing cells for the treatment of an individual, affected with cancer, for the treatment of proliferative disease or for inhibiting B-cell proliferation.

EFFECT: invention provides novel antibodies, which can find further application in the therapy of proliferative CD79b-associated diseases.
