CYSTEINE-OPTIMIZED STRADOMERS
The present disclosure involves biologically active proteins termed cysteine-optimized multimerizing stradomers. Thus, the present disclosure provides compositions and methods providing anti-autoimmune and anti-inflammatory activities, useful in the treatment of diseases and conditions including autoimmune diseases, inflammatory diseases, or infectious diseases.
RECOGNITION TAGS FOR TGASE-MEDIATED CONJUGATION
The present application relates to methods for the functionalization of antibodies using transglutaminase, in particular antibodies lacking Fc regions. Also disclosed herein are peptide tags for transglutaminase, linking reagents, functionalized antibodies, multi-specific antibodies, pharmaceutical compositions, and method of treating disease and/or conditions.
METHODS AND COMPOSITIONS COMPRISING MHC CLASS I PEPTIDES
The current disclosure fulfills a need in the art by providing methods and compositions for treating and vaccinating individuals against cancer. Accordingly, aspects of the disclosure relate to an isolated peptide comprising at least 70% sequence identity to a peptide of SEQ ID NO: 1 or 2. In some embodiments, the peptide comprises at least 6 contiguous amino acids of a peptide of SEQ ID NO:1 or 2. Further aspects relate to pharmaceutical compositions comprising the isolated peptide, nucleic acids encoding the peptide, and expression vectors and host cells comprising the nucleic acids of the disclosure. Also provided is an in vitro isolated dendritic cell comprising a peptide, nucleic acid, or expression vector of the disclosure.
Dual cytokine fusion proteins comprising IL-10
The application relates to a dual cytokine fusion protein composition, pharmaceutical composition, and/or formulation thereof comprising IL-10 or IL-10 variant molecules fused to a single chain variable fragment scaffolding system and a second cytokine, where the second cytokine is linked in the hinge region of the scFv. The application also relates to methods of using the dual cytokine fusion protein composition for treating cancer, inflammatory diseases or disorders, and immune and immune mediated diseases or disorders.
SCAFFOLD FOR BIFUNCTIONAL MOLECULES COMPRISING PD-1 OR CD28 AND SIRP BINDING DOMAINS
The present invention relates to bifunctional molecules having a particular scaffold and their uses.
NEW ANTI-SIRPa ANTIBODIES AND THEIR THERAPEUTIC APPLICATIONS
The present invention provides new anti-SIRPa antibodies able to specifically antagonize the interaction between SIRPa and CD47, without affecting the interaction between SIRPg and CD47, and their uses.
COMPOSITIONS AND METHODS FOR TISSUE REPAIR
The present invention provides compositions and methods for targeting an extracellular matrix derived (EMD) peptide predominantly to an injured tissue, as opposed to an uninjured tissue in vivo. The targeted EMD peptide facilitates the repair and/or regeneration of the injured tissue by providing a surface for cells to attach and grow, thereby facilitating the repair and/or regeneration of the injured tissue.
NOVEL DARPin BASED MULTI-SPECIFIC T-CELL ENGAGERS
The present invention relates to recombinant multi-specific proteins comprising binding agents with binding specificity for different targets, such as, e.g. CD3, CD33, CD123 and CD70. In addition, the invention relates to nucleic acids encoding such multi-specific proteins, pharmaceutical compositions comprising such proteins or nucleic acids, and the use of such binding proteins, nucleic acids or pharmaceutical compositions in methods for treating or diagnosing diseases, such as cancer, e.g. acute myeloid leukaemia (AML), in a mammal, including a human.
HIGH AVIDITY HPV T-CELL RECEPTORS
The present invention pertains to novel high avidity antigen recognizing constructs against Human Papilloma Virus antigens. The invention provides novel T cell receptor (TCR) based molecules which are selective and specific for HPV 16/18 proteins E5, E6 and E7. The TCR of the invention, and HPV antigen-binding fragments derived therefrom, are of use for the diagnosis, treatment and prevention of HPV infection, as well as for the diagnosis, treatment and prevention of HPV infection mediated secondary diseases as HPV infection caused cancers, such as cervical, nasopharyngeal or head and neck cancer. Further provided are nucleic acids encoding the proteins of the invention, and recombinant cells expressing the same.
Immunoglobulin constant region Fc receptor binding agents
IVIG replacement compounds are derived from recombinant and/or biochemical creation of immunologically active biomimetic(s). These replacement compounds are then screened in vitro to assess each replacement compound's efficiency at modulating immune function. Particular replacement compounds are selected for further in vivo validation and dosage/administration optimization. Finally, the replacement compounds are used to treat a wide range of diseases, including inflammatory and autoimmune diseases.
