Disclosed is a method for improving affinity of an antibody for an antigen, comprising, in an unmodified antibody, improving affinity for an antigen as compared to the unmodified antibody, by changing 17th, 18th and 20th amino acid residues of a light chain defined by Kabat method to charged amino acid residues.

The invention provides anti-Jagged antibodies and methods of using the same.

This invention concerns in general treatment of diseases and pathological conditions with anti-VEGF antibodies. More specifically, the invention concerns the treatment of human patients susceptible to or diagnosed with cancer using an anti-VEGF antibody, preferably in combination with one or more additional anti-tumor therapeutic agents.

Disclosed are antibodies, including antibody drug conjugates, that specifically bind to NTB-A. Also disclosed are methods for using the anti-NTB-A antibodies to detect or modulate activity of (e.g., inhibit proliferation of) an NTB-A-expressing cell, as well as for diagnoses or treatment of diseases or disorders (e.g., cancer) associated with NTB-A-expressing cells, such as multiple myeloma, non-Hodgkin lymphoma and acute myeloid leukemia.

The present invention provides an antigen binding protein comprising an antigen binding domain that binds to plasmin, wherein the antigen binding protein reduces the activity of plasmin. The invention also provides compositions comprising the antigen binding protein, and uses and method of treatment comprising the same.

There is provided a chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) comprising a CD19-binding domain which comprises a) a heavy chain variable region (VH) having complementarity determining regions (CDRs) with the following sequences: CDR1—GY-AFSSS (SEQ ID No. 1); CDR2—YPGDED (SEQ ID No. 2) CDR3—SLLYGDYLDY (SEQ ID No. 3); and b) a light chain variable region (VL) having CDRs with the following sequences: CDR1—SASSSVSYMH (SEQ ID No. 4); CDR2—DTSKLAS (SEQ ID No. 5) CDR3—QQWNINPLT (SEQ ID No. 6). There is also provided a cell comprising such a CAR, and the use of such a cell in the treatment of cancer, in particular a B cell malignancy.

Provided are an anti-FXI/FXIa antibody, an antigen-binding fragment thereof, and a pharmaceutical use thereof, as well as a pharmaceutical composition comprising the anti-FXI/FXIa antibody or the antigen-binding fragment thereof, and a method for treating and preventing a disease, in particular a method for treating thrombosis or thromboembolism-related diseases or disorders.

The present invention relates to a process for preparing antibody-drug conjugates and to antibody-drug conjugates wherein therapeutic moieties are conjugated to one or more engineered cysteines as well as to one or more reduced interchain cysteines via a cleavable or non-cleavable linker.

The present disclosure provides antibody sequences found in antibodies that bind to human CD25, in particular an anti CD25-a-674 antibody which do not block the binding of CD25 to IL-2 or IL-2 signalling. The claimed antibody binds to the epitopes: QCVQGYRA and RWTQPQLICTG on CD25 Antibodies and antigen-binding portions thereof including such sequences can be used in pharmaceutical compositions and methods of treatment, in particular for treating cancer.

The present invention relates to antigen binding molecules (ABMs). In particular embodiments, the present invention relates to recombinant monoclonal antibodies, including chimeric, primatized or humanized antibodies specific for human CD20. In addition, the present invention relates to nucleic acid molecules encoding such ABMs, and vectors and host cells comprising such nucleic acid molecules. The invention further relates to methods for producing the ABMs of the invention, and to methods of using these ABMs in treatment of disease. In addition, the present invention relates to ABMs with modified glycosylation having improved therapeutic properties, including antibodies with increased Fc receptor binding and increased effector function.
