Provided are methods relating to the use of CDP-therapeutic agent conjugates for the treatment of a disease or disorder, e.g., autoimmune disease, inflammatory disease, central nervous system disorder, cardiovascular disease, or metabolic disorder. Also provided are CDP-therapeutic agent conjugates, particles comprising CDP-therapeutic agent conjugates, and compositions comprising CDP-therapeutic agent conjugates.

The preparation of poly-2-oxazoline amphiphilic polymers and copolymers is described. Self-assembled particles comprising these amphiphilic polymers and which are useful for the targeted delivery of therapeutic and diagnostic agents are also described.

Described herein are methods and compositions of combinations of microRNAs that enhance the sensitivity of cancer cells to chemotherapeutic agents or reduce proliferation of cancer cells. Also described herein are methods for the identification of combinations of microRNAs that result in desired effects.

The invention provides polymer compositions, compounds, processes, and methods of use of the polymers for drug delivery, biodegradable consumer plastics, or solvents for Li-based batteries or supercapacitors. The invention is based, at least in part, on the discovery that poly(glyceric acid carbonate)s and alkyl functionalized poly(1,2 glycerol carbonates) and poly(glyceric acid carbonate)s and pharmaceutical agent/composition functionalized poly(1,2 glycerol carbonates) and poly(glyceric acid carbonate)s represent a new type of glycerol based polymer that 1) degrade into glycerol and carbon dioxide; 2) the poly(1,2 glycerol carbonates) degrade more readily than conventional poly(1,3 glycerol carbonates; and 3) poly(1,2 glycerol carbonates) can be processed to give melts, viscous fluids, liquids, films, sheets, gels, meshes, foams, fibers, or particles.

Disclosed herein, is a bi-functional allosteric protein-drug molecule comprising a targeting moiety, one or more biological binding domains, and one or more therapeutic agents, wherein the therapeutic agent is allosterically bound to the biological binding domain. Also described herein, are methods of incorporating a bi-functional allosteric protein-drug molecule comprising a targeting moiety, one or more biological binding domains that captures the therapeutic agent without the formation of a chemical bond, and one or more therapeutic agents; physiologically acceptable compositions including them; and methods of administering the bi-functional allosteric protein-drug molecule to patients for the treatment of cancer.

Provided are antibodies that target the cellular efflux pump MDR1. Also provided are pharmaceutical compositions, nucleic acids, recombinant expression vectors, cells, and kits that include or encode such antibodies. Methods of using the antibodies for detecting presence or absence of MDR1 expression in cells, e.g., tumor cells, level of MDR1 expression, and/or inhibiting MDR1 function are also disclosed. In addition, multi-specific antibodies that bind to MDR1 and a tumor associated antigen are provided. Also provided are methods for treating a subject for a cancer that include administering to the subject an anti-MDR1 antibody as disclosed herein or a multi-specific antibody that targets both MDR1 and a tumorassociated antigen.
