The present invention relates to Tri-Specific Binding Molecules, which are multi-chain polypeptide molecules that possess three Binding Domains and are thus capable of mediating coordinated binding to three epitopes. The Tri-Specific Binding Molecule is preferably characterized in possessing binding domains that permit it to immunospecifically bind to: (1) an epitope of a first Cancer Antigen, (2) an epitope of a second Cancer Antigen, and (3) an epitope of a molecule that is expressed on the surface of an immune system effector cell, and are thus capable of localizing an immune system effector cell to a cell that expresses a Cancer Antigen, so as to thereby facilitate the killing of such cancer cell.

Provided herein are IL-21 muteins and fusion proteins comprising the same for use in methods of treating a disease. Related conjugates, nucleic acids, vectors, host cells, pharmaceutical compositions and kits are also provided herein. Methods of making the IL-21 muteins and fusion proteins comprising the same, as well as methods of treating a subject in need thereof, are provided by the present disclosure. Further provided are PD-1 antigen-binding proteins.

Human interleukin-2 (IL-2) muteins or variants thereof are provided. In particular, provided are IL-2 muteins that have an increased binding capacity for IL-2Rβ receptor as compared to wild-type IL-2 for use in combination therapies with anti-PD-1 antibodies for the treatment of cancer. Also provided are pharmaceutical compositions that include such anti-PD-1 antibodies and the disclosed IL-2 muteins.

Provided are compositions for increasing the half-life of a polypeptide or polypeptides in a canine and methods of their use. The compositions involve variant canine IgG Fc regions.

The invention relates to an anti-CD16A antigen binding protein for use in NK cell-based immunotherapy, wherein the anti-CD16A antigen binding protein is to be administered intermittently and in combination with a cytokine. In certain embodiments the antigen binding protein is a tetravalent and bispecific CD30/CD16A tandem diabody.

The invention provides anti-cluster of differentiation 3 (CD3) antibodies and methods of using the same.

The present invention provides monovalent antibodies with a long half-life when administered in vivo, methods of making such monovalent antibodies, pharmaceutical compositions comprising such antibodies, and uses of the monovalent antibodies.

Provided in the present invention is a bispecific antibody which comprises an anti-MUC1 VHH antibody fragment and an anti-CD16 VHH antibody fragment. The antibody fragment used in the present invention is a variable region sequence derived from a heavy chain camelid antibody and has a high binding affinity to the antigen. Antibody fragments recognizing MUC1 and CD16 are constructed in the same antibody molecule by the invention, so that the antibody molecule can specifically bind to MUC1 and CD16 molecules to promote the killing effect of NK cells on MUC1-positive expression cells and has an inhibiting effect on the growth of MUC1-positive tumors. Also provided is a conjugate of the bispecific antibodies, a related pharmaceutical composition and use.

The present inventors created antigen-binding molecules containing an antigen-binding domain and an Fcγ-receptor-binding domain, wherein the molecules have human-FcRn-binding activity in an acidic pH range condition, the antigen-binding domain changes the antigen-binding activity of the antigen-binding molecules depending on the ion-concentration condition, and the Fcγ receptor-binding domain has higher binding activity to the Fcγ receptor in a neutral pH range condition than an Fc region of a native human IgG in which the sugar chain bound at position 297 (EU numbering) is a fucose-containing sugar chain.

The invention relates to the field of diagnostic immunology. Provided are means and methods for multiparameter cytometry-based leukocyte subsetting, which is advantageously used for the monitoring of the immune status of a subject, and/or for monitoring the effects of an immune modulatory treatment. Provided among others is a reagent composition comprising antibodies conjugated to a detectable label, the conjugated antibodies being directed against the following combination of markers: CD141, HLA-DR, CD16, CD33, CD300e, CD303 and CD14, wherein the antibodies directed against CD300e and CD303 may be conjugated to the same label.
