The present invention relates to a CD24 protein for treating immune-related adverse events (irAEs) associated with cancer immunotherapy. Provided herein is a method of treating, mitigating, minimizing, or preventing immunerelated adverse events (irAEs) associated with a cancer immunotherapy by administering a CD24 protein to a subject in need thereof. The irAE may be diarrhea or another gastrointestinal disorder, pure red cell aplasia, microcytic anemia, lupus, autoimmune nephritism, autoimmune hepatitis, pneumonitis, myocarditis, pericarditis, endocrinopathy, Addison's disease, hypogonadism, Sjogren's syndrome, or type I diabetes. The CCD24 protein may comprise a mature human CD24 or a variant thereof.

The application relates to specific binding members which bind to programmed death-ligand (PD-L1). The specific binding members preferably comprise a PD-L1 antigen-binding site located in structural loops of a constant domain of the specific binding member. The specific binding members find application, for example, in the treatment of cancer, as well as infectious diseases, inflammation, diseases and conditions associated with inflammation, and inflammatory diseases.

Provided are NK-92 cells expressing a chimeric antigen receptor (CAR). The CAR can comprise an intracellular domain of FcεRIγ. Also described are methods for treating a patient having or suspected of having a disease that is treatable with NK-92 cells, such as cancer or a viral infection, comprising administering to the patient NK-92-CAR cells.

The present invention relates to new CD22 Chimeric Antigen Receptors (CD22 CAR), an engineered immune cell endowed with said new CD22 CAR and comprising at least inactivated TRAC gene for use in therapy. The engineered immune cells endowed with such CARs are particularly suited for treating relapsed refractory CD22 expressing cancers.

Several embodiments disclosed herein relate to the compositions comprising engineered Natural Killer (NK) cells that express a chimeric receptor, the chimeric receptor imparting to the NK cells an enhanced ability to target specific cells, such as cancerous cells or those affected by an infectious disease. Several embodiments relate to NK cells that target cells expressing natural ligands of NKG2D, where the NK cells comprise transmembrane and/or signaling domains that lead to cytotoxic and/or cytolytic effects when the NK cells bind a target cell. Uses of NK cell compositions to treat diseases are also provided for in several embodiments.

In certain embodiments, the disclosure provides an IgG4 antibody comprising a heavy chain and a light chain, wherein the heavy chain comprises: (a) a modified IgG4 CH1 region having a substitution of the lysine residue at position 196; or (b) a modified IgG4 hinge region having a substitution of the serine residue at position 217, the glycine residue at position 220, the proline residue at position 224 or the proline residue at position 225. Preferably, the IgG4 antibody further comprises a substitution of the serine residue at position 228 in the heavy chain hinge region.

The disclosure provides antigen binding domains that bind cluster of differentiation 3 (CD3) protein, comprising the antigen binding domains that bind CD3ε, polynucleotides encoding them, vectors, host cells, methods of making and using them.

This disclosure belongs to the field of biomedical technology, and particularly refers to a trifunctional molecule and the application thereof. The structure of the trifunctional molecule includes a first functional domain, a second functional domain and a third functional domain. These domains are capable of simultaneously binding to CD19, CD3, and T cell positive (negative) costimulatory factors, thereby producing the first and second signal required for T cell activation. The trifunctional molecule is a recombinant protein peptide chain, which can be produced by a eukaryotic cell expression system. The product has a single structure, simple purification process, high protein yield, and preparation process and product stability. The trifunctional molecule is superior to the anti-CD19/anti-CD3 BiTE bispecific antibody in killing CD19-positive target cells. Compared with the CAR-T technology targeting CD19, the trifunctional molecule is more convenient to use, the dose is controllable, and the side effects of CAR-T are avoided.

Provided are NK-92 cells expressing a chimeric antigen receptor (CAR). The CAR can comprise an intracellular domain of FcϵRIγ. Also described are methods for treating a patient having or suspected of having a disease that is treatable with NK-92 cells, such as cancer or a viral infection, comprising administering to the patient NK-92-CAR cells.

The disclosure provides methods of treating viral infection using trispecific binding proteins comprising four polypeptide chains that form three antigen binding sites that specifically bind a CD38 polypeptide (e.g., human and/or cynomolgus monkey CD38 polypeptides), a CD28 polypeptide, and a CD3 polypeptide.
