The present application provides sulfonyl amide compounds, which are inhibitors of cyclin-dependent kinase 2 (CDK2), as well as pharmaceutical compositions thereof, and methods of treating cancer using the same.

Provided herein, in one aspect, are antibodies that immunospecifically bind to a human KIT antigen comprising the fourth and/or fifth extracellular Ig-like domains (that is, D4 and/or D5 domains), polynucleotides comprising nucleotide sequences encoding such antibodies, and expression vectors and host cells for producing such antibodies. The antibodies can inhibit KIT activity, such as ligand-induced receptor phosphorylation. Also provided herein are kits and pharmaceutical compositions comprising antibodies that specifically bind to a KIT antigen, as well as methods of treating or managing a KIT-associated disorder or disease and methods of diagnosing a KIT-associated disorder or disease using the antibodies described herein.

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.

A system and a method for identifying a cognate ligand molecules for known proteins.

Chemical entities that are kinase inhibitors, pharmaceutical compositions and methods of using these chemical entities, e.g., for treatment of cancer are described.

The present invention provides diagnostic methods, therapeutic methods, and compositions for the treatment of cancer (e.g., kidney cancer (e.g., renal cell carcinoma (RCC)), lung cancer (e.g., non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC)), bladder cancer (e.g., urothelial bladder cancer (UBC)), liver cancer (e.g., hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC)), ovarian cancer, or breast cancer (e.g., triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC))). The invention is based, at least in part, on the discovery that expression levels of one or more biomarkers described herein in a sample from an individual having cancer can be used in methods of predicting the therapeutic efficacy of treatment with a VEGF antagonist (e.g., an anti-VEGF antibody, (e.g., bevacizumab) or a VEGFR inhibitor (e.g., a multi-targeted tyrosine kinase inhibitor (e.g., sunitinib, axitinib, pazopanib, or cabozantinib))) and a PD-L1 axis binding antagonist (e.g., a PD-L1 binding antagonist (e.g., anti-PD-L1 antibody, e.g., atezolizumab (MPDL3280A)) or a PD-1 binding antagonist (e.g., anti-PD-1 antibody)), or with an angiogenesis inhibitor (e.g., a VEGF antagonist (e.g., a VEGFR inhibitor, (e.g., a multi-targeted tyrosine kinase inhibitor (e.g., sunitinib, axitinib, pazopanib, or cabozantinib)))).

The present disclosure relates to a method of diagnosing metastatic cancer or taxane-based drug-resistant cancer, including: measuring an LMCD1 expression level from a complex formed by bringing, into contact with a sample isolated from a subject, an antibody, peptide, protein, or combination thereof that specifically binds to an LMCD1 protein or a fragment thereof; or a probe, primer, nucleotide, or combination thereof that specifically binds to a nucleotide sequence encoding the LMCD1 protein; and comparing the measured LMCD1 expression level of the sample with a measured LMCD1 expression level of a control, and a kit for diagnosing metastatic cancer or taxane-based drug-resistant cancer, including a composition for diagnosing metastatic cancer or taxane-based drug-resistant cancer.

A cell response assay for cancer is provided. In the assay, the levels of a cancer cell type biomarker, a chemo resistance biomarker and a metastatic potential biomarker are simultaneously measured in a biological sample.
