The present invention provides isolated monoclonal antibodies, particularly human antibodies, that bind to human Cluster of Differentiation 73 (CD73) with high affinity, and inhibit the activity of CD73, and optionally mediate antibody dependent CD73 internalization. Nucleic acid molecules encoding the antibodies of the invention, expression vectors, host cells and methods for expressing the antibodies of the invention are also provided. Immunoconjugates, bispecific molecules and pharmaceutical compositions comprising the antibodies of the invention are also provided. The invention also provides methods for inhibiting the growth of a tumor cell expressing CD73 using the antibodies of the invention, including methods for treating various cancers.
Anti-CD19 antibodies
The present disclosure provides anti-CD19 antibodies or antigen-binding fragments thereof, isolated polynucleotides encoding the same, pharmaceutical compositions comprising the same, and the uses thereof.
METHOD FOR DETECTING TUMOR CELL SURFACE MARKER MOLECULE PD-L1
A method for detecting a tumor cell surface marker molecule PD-L1, comprising the following steps: providing a capture screen that has antibodies capable of specifically binding to tumor cells; making a sample to be tested flow through the capture screen, such that tumor cells in the sample to be tested bind to the capture screen; fixing captured tumor cells on the capture screen; and successively using a PD-L1 primary antibody solution, a PD-L1 secondary antibody solution labeled with a fluorophore AlexaFluor 647, a pan-CK-AlexaFluor 488 primary antibody solution, a CD45 primary antibody solution and a CD45 secondary antibody solution labeled with a fluorophore AlexaFluor 568, to incubate the cells fixed on the capture screen, and then labeling all cells on the capture screen with a nuclear fluorescent dye.
TCR-INDEPENDENT MOLECULAR IDENTIFICATION OF MUTATION-RELATED AND TUMOR-SPECIFIC T CELLS
The present invention relates to the field of tumor immunology. It provides a method for identifying mutation-related human CD8+ T cells, in particular, tumor-specific T cells of a human subject, comprising analyzing CD8+ T cells of the subject by analysing the expression of at least one marker selected from a first group consisting of CD82, CD194, CD244, CD28, CD62L and CD55, and preferably, a marker selected from a second group comprising CD11a or CD18 or CD43. A preferred marker for mutation-related CD8+ T cells is CD82, which may be analysed in combination, e.g., with CD11a. Without the need to identify any epitope to which T cells reacts, this method can advantageously be used to isolate the entire individual pool of mutation-related T cells, and, optionally, to identify the sequence of a mutation-related TCR, which allows for generation of transgenic T cells expressing the TCR. Compositions substantially comprising tumor-specific CD82.sup.hiCD8+ T cells and/or CD194.sup.hi, CD244.sup.−, CD28.sup.+, CD62L.sup.+ and/or CD55.sup.+ CD82.sup.hi CD8+ T cells can be used for treatment of a cancer patient, e.g., by adoptive T cell transfer. The method of the invention can also be used for diagnostic purposes to identify human mutation-related T cells or diagnosing a tumor disease or for testing responses of a cancer patient to an immune stimulatory therapy, preferably, a therapy with a checkpoint inhibitor.
Anti-ROR1 antibodies and preparation method and uses thereof
The present invention relates to anti-ROR1 antibodies and to methods of using anti-ROR1 antibodies. The anti-ROR1 antibodies described herein are useful for the diagnosis and treatment of diseases, such as various cancers, associated with aberrant expression of ROR1.
Anti-HER2 Antibodies and Immunoconjugates
The invention provides anti-HER2 antibodies and immunoconjugates and methods of using the same.
Anti-phosphotyrosinylated programmed death 1 (PD-1) monoclonal antibodies, methods of making and methods of using thereof
The present invention is based, in part, on the discovery of monoclonal and polyclonal antibodies that specifically bind to phosphorylated PD-1, as well as immunoglobulins, polypeptides, nucleic acids thereof, and methods of using such antibodies for diagnostic, prognostic, and therapeutic purposes.
NOVEL PEPTIDES AND COMBINATION OF PEPTIDES FOR USE IN IMMUNOTHERAPY AGAINST LUNG CANCER, INCLUDING NSCLC, SCLC 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.
Methods for treating cancer using PS-targeting antibodies with immuno-oncology agents
Disclosed are surprising new methods and kits for treating patients, particularly cancer patients, using bavituximab in combination therapies with immuno-oncology (IO) agents such as checkpoint inhibitor antibodies. The methods and kits are based on the surprising finding that human patients treated with bavituximab and checkpoint inhibitor antibodies have a statistically significant prolonged survival in controlled studies.
Predicting responders to cyclophosphamide therapy
The present disclosure is based on detecting CC chemokine receptor 4 (CCR4) expression on T effector cells to diagnostically or prophylactically predict subjects, in particular those with a gynaecological cancer who will respond to treatment with low dose cyclophosphamide.
