1. A CD137 Binding Molecule comprising a first binding site that immunospecifically binds to an epitope of CD137, wherein said first binding site comprises a first Light Chain Variable Domain that comprises a CDRL1, CDRL2 and CDRL3, and a first Heavy Chain Variable Domain that comprises a CDRH1, CDRH2 and CDRH3; and wherein:
(A) said first Light Chain Variable Domain CDRL1, CDRL2, and CDRL3 are the Light Chain CDRs of CD137 MAB-6 VL1 (SEQ ID NO:50), CD137 MAB-6 VL2 (SEQ ID NO:55); or CD137 MAB-6 VL3 (SEQ ID NO:56); and
(B) said first Heavy Chain Variable Domain CDRH1, CDRH2, and CDRH3 are the Heavy Chain CDRs of CD137 MAB-6 VH1 (SEQ ID NO:46).
