The present disclosure provides a use of a dimer in the preparation of a medicament for treating a tumor in a subject in need thereof, and the dimer formed by two polypeptide chains, with each of the two polypeptide chains comprising an antibody Fc subunit, wherein the dimer comprises two or more immunoglobulin single variable domains (ISVDs), at least one of the ISVDs is specific for PD-L1, and at least one of the ISVDs is specific for CTLA4. The present disclosure also provides a method for treating a tumor in a subject in need thereof, wherein the subject is resistant to the therapy of an immune checkpoint inhibitor.

The invention provides methods and compositions to detect expression of one or more biomarkers, including FGFR3, TP53, and/or EGFR, for treating, diagnosing, and providing a prognosis for cancer, e.g., bladder cancer. The invention also provides kits and articles of manufacture for use in the methods.

Provided are methods of treating cancer that comprise administering a polypeptide (e.g. a fusion polypeptide) that comprises a SIRPα D1 domain variant and an Fc domain variant in combination with at least one chemotherapy agent and/or at least one therapeutic antibody. Also provided are related kits.

The disclosure is directed to compositions comprising a prodrug and an immunomodulator, which can self-assemble into a nanofiber hydrogel at the site of application in a human. The prodrug comprises one or more cytotoxic agents conjugated to a hydrophilic moiety by a linker. The compositions may be used to kill cancer cells, such as glioblastoma and colorectal cancer cells.

Provided herein are trispecific and/or trivalent binding proteins comprising four polypeptide chains that form three antigen binding sites that specifically bind one or more target proteins, wherein a first pair of polypeptides forming the binding protein possess dual variable domains having a cross-over orientation, and wherein and a second pair of polypeptides possess a single variable domain forming a single antigen binding site. In some embodiments, the binding proteins comprise a binding site that binds a CD28 polypeptide, a binding site that binds a CD3 polypeptide, and a binding site that binds a third polypeptide, such as a tumor target protein. In some embodiments, the binding proteins comprise four polypeptide chains that form three antigen binding sites that specifically bind one or more HIV target proteins. The disclosure also relates to methods for making trispecific and/or trivalent binding proteins and uses of such binding proteins.
