Described herein are hybrid antibodies targeted for use in the treatment of cancer. The antibodies have binding capabilities for Fcε receptors and the neonatal Fc receptor, which may be achieved e.g. by replacing sequences or amino acids in IgE constant domain with corresponding sequences and amino acids derived from IgG.

The present invention provides methods for treating, reducing the severity, or inhibiting the growth of cancer (e.g., skin cancer). The methods of the present invention comprise administering to a subject in need thereof a therapeutically effective amount of a programmed death 1 (PD-1) antagonist (e.g., an anti-PD-1 antibody). In certain embodiments, the skin cancer is cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma or basal cell carcinoma.

The present invention generally relates to antibodies that bind to CD3, including multi specific antibodies e.g. for activating T cells. In addition, the present invention relates to polynucleotides encoding such antibodies, and vectors and host cells comprising such polynucleotides. The invention further relates to methods for producing the antibodies, and to methods of using them in the treatment of disease.

Described herein are hybrid antibodies targeted for use in the treatment of cancer. The antibodies have binding capabilities for Fcε receptors and Fcγ receptors, which may be achieved e.g. by grafting heavy chain constant domain sequences (e.g. CH2 and CH3 domains) derived from IgG to IgE.

The present invention relates to compositions and methods for identifying, assessing, preventing, and treating melanoma. A variety of PD-L1 isoform biomarkers are provided, wherein alterations in the copy number of one or more of the biomarkers and/or alterations in the amount, structure, and/or activity of one or more of the biomarkers is associated with melanoma status.

The invention provides a bispecific antibody construct comprising a first human binding domain capable of binding to human CDH19 on the surface of a target cell and a second domain capable of binding to human CD3 on the surface of a T cell.
