Glycoengineered antibody drug conjugates
The current disclosure provides binding polypeptides (e.g., antibodies), and targeting moiety conjugates thereof, comprising a site-specifically engineered glycan linkage within native or engineered glycans of the binding polypeptide. The current disclosure also provides nucleic acids encoding the antigen-binding polypeptides, recombinant expression vectors and host cells for making such antigen-binding polypeptides. Methods of using the antigen-binding polypeptides disclosed herein to treat disease are also provided.
Cancer treatments
This invention relates to antibody-albumin nanoparticle complexes comprising albumin, an antibody with binding specificity for a cancer antigen (e.g. panitumumab), and paclitaxel, wherein the nanoparticle complex has been pre-formed in vitro such that the nanoparticle complex has antigen-binding specificity (e.g. EGFR binding specificity), for the purpose of providing cancer (e.g. EGFR-related cancer) treatments in a subject in need thereof.
Hyperglycosylated binding polypeptides
Provided are binding polypeptides (e.g., antibodies), and effector moiety conjugates thereof, comprising a CH1 domain (e.g., a human IgG1 CH1 domain), wherein the CH1 domain has an engineered N-linked glycosylation site at amino acid position 114, according to Kabat numbering. Also provided are nucleic acids encoding the antigen-binding polypeptides, recombinant expression vectors and host cells for making such antigen-binding polypeptides. Methods of using the antigen-binding polypeptides disclosed herein to treat disease are also provided.
Optimized Fc variants
The present invention relates to Fc variants having decreased affinity for FcγRIIb, methods for their generation, Fc polypeptides comprising optimized Fc variants, and methods for using optimized Fc variants.
Cultured thymus tissue transplantation promotes donor-specific tolerance to allogeneic solid organ transplants
Methods and compositions for promoting donor-specific tolerance and immunocompetence to a recipient of a solid organ transplant, by implanting an allogeneic solid organ in a recipient in need of a solid organ transplant and further comprising surgical implantation of a tissue-engineered allogeneic cultured postnatal thymus tissue product in the recipient of a solid organ from a donor.
METHODS FOR REDUCING TOXICITY OF A CHEMOTHERAPEUTIC DRUG
This disclosure relates to methods for improving the therapeutic index of a chemotherapeutic drug in the treatment of patients afflicted with cancer, by reducing chemotherapy-related toxicity to a level that allows the chemotherapeutic drug to be used in humans.
CSF1R/CCR2 MULTISPECIFIC ANTIBODIES
Molecules, e.g., multispecific molecules, targeting CSF1R or CCR2 and methods of using the same, are disclosed.
Fc VARIANTS WITH ALTERED BINDING TO FcRn
The present application relates to a variant Fc region comprising at least one modification relative to a wild-type human Fc region, where the modification selected from the group consisting of 434S, 252Y/428L, 252Y/434S, and 428L/434S, and the numbering is according to the EU index.
Fc VARIANTS WITH ALTERED BINDING TO FcRn
The present application relates to optimized IgG immunoglobulin variants, engineering methods for their generation, and their application, particularly for therapeutic purposes.
GLYCOENGINEERED ANTIBODY DRUG CONJUGATES
The current disclosure provides binding polypeptides (e.g., antibodies), and targeting moiety conjugates thereof, comprising a site-specifically engineered glycan linkage within native or engineered glycans of the binding polypeptide. The current disclosure also provides nucleic acids encoding the antigen-binding polypeptides, recombinant expression vectors and host cells for making such antigen-binding polypeptides. Methods of using the antigen-binding polypeptides disclosed herein to treat disease are also provided.
