C07K16/3038
Combination therapy comprising nivolumab and ipilimumab
This provides pharmaceutical compositions that comprise a combination of an anti-cancer agent which is an first antibody and a second antibody. In some embodiments, the first antibody is an anti-Programmed Death-1 (PD-1) antibody. In certain embodiments, the composition is a fixed dose formulation. In certain embodiments, the composition is administered as a flat-dose. The disclosure also provides a kit for treating a subject afflicted with a disease, the kit comprising a dosage of any composition disclosed herein and instructions for using the composition in any of the disclosed methods for treating a disease.
Peptides and combination of peptides for use in immunotherapy against ovarian cancer and other cancers
The present invention relates to peptides, proteins, nucleic acids and cells for use in immunotherapeutic methods. In particular, the present invention relates to the immunotherapy of cancer. The present invention furthermore relates to tumor-associated T-cell peptide epitopes, alone or in combination with other tumor-associated peptides that can for example serve as active pharmaceutical ingredients of vaccine compositions that stimulate anti-tumor immune responses, or to stimulate T cells ex vivo and transfer into patients. Peptides bound to molecules of the major histocompatibility complex (MHC), or peptides as such, can also be targets of antibodies, soluble T-cell receptors, and other binding molecules.
Immunoactivating antigen-binding molecule
It was discovered that the use of an antigen-binding molecule having a cancer-specific antigen-binding domain, and a TNF superfamily-binding domain or a TNF receptor superfamily-binding domain enables agonist activity against a factor belonging to the TNF superfamily or the TNF receptor superfamily to be exhibited only in the presence of cancer-specific antigen-expressing cells, thus leading to activation of immune cells and thereby maintain anti-tumor activity while avoiding side effects such as hepatotoxicity. It was also discovered that concomitant use of the antigen-binding molecule with an antigen-binding molecule having a cancer-specific antigen-binding domain and a T cell receptor complex-binding domain can avoid side effects while increasing the anti-tumor activity.
Antibody drug conjugates (ADC) that bind to 158P1D7 proteins
Antibody drug conjugates (ADC's) that bind to 158P1D7 protein and variants thereof are described herein. 158P1D7 exhibits tissue specific expression in normal adult tissue, and is aberrantly expressed in glioblastoma, lung cancer, bladder cancer, and breast cancer. Consequently, the ADC's of the invention provide a therapeutic composition for the treatment of cancer.
COMBINATION OF A PD-1 ANTAGONIST AND A VEGFR INHIBITOR FOR TREATING CANCER
The present disclosure describes combination therapies comprising an antagonist of Programmed Death 1 receptor (PD-1) and a VEGFR inhibitor, and the use of the combination therapies for the treatment of cancer, and in particular for treating cancers that express PD-L1.

Further provided are cells that produce the antibodies, polynucleotides encoding the heavy and/or light chain variable region of the antibodies, and vectors comprising the polynucleotides encoding the heavy and/or light chain variable region of the antibodies.
Anti-doublecortin-like kinase 1 antibodies and methods of use
Antibodies and antigen-binding fragments thereof that specifically bind to human DCLK1 protein, hybridomas or other cell lines which express such antibodies and antigen-binding fragments thereof, nucleic acids, vectors, and host cells comprising nucleic acids which encode such antibodies and antigen-binding fragments thereof, and methods of use thereof are disclosed. In at least certain non-limiting embodiments, the antibodies or antigen-binding fragments thereof specifically bind to an epitope within isoform 2 or 4 of DCLK1 protein.
ANG2-BINDING MOLECULES
Ang2-binding molecules, preferably Ang2-binding immunoglobulin single variable domains like VHHs and domain antibodies, pharmaceutical compositions containing same and their use in the treatment of diseases that are associated with Ang2-mediated effects on angiogenesis. Nucleic acids encoding Ang2-binding molecules, host cells and methods for preparing same.
METHODS OF TREATING CANCERS USING PD-1 AXIS BINDING ANTAGONISTS AND TAXANES
The invention provides methods and compositions for treating cancer and for enhancing immune function in an individual having cancer. The methods comprise administering a PD-1 axis binding antagonist and a taxane.
