The present invention relates to the field of production, identification and selection of biological binding molecules such as antibodies or fragments thereof, as well as to diagnostic procedures using them in the diagnosis of cancers, in particular malignant B-cell neoplasia. The binding molecules are able to selectively bind to autonomously active or autonomously activated B-cell receptors, the autonomously active or autonomously activated B-cell receptors being characterized by the presence of structural domains to which the binding molecule selectively binds and which are responsible for the autonomously active or autonomously activated state of the B-cell receptors.

Isolated human monoclonal antibodies which bind to human CD74 and related antibody-drug conjugates are disclosed. Pharmaceutical compositions comprising the antibodies or antibody-drug conjugates, and therapeutic and diagnostic methods for using the antibodies and/or antibody-drug conjugates, are also disclosed.

This invention relates to anti-TIM-3 antibodies and antibody compositions and their use in enhancing immunity in a patient, e.g., to treat cancer.

Provided are novel anti-CD228 antibodies and antibody-drug conjugates and methods of using such anti-CD228 antibodies and antibody-drug conjugates to treat cancer.

This document relates to conjugates of TNF inhibitors or derivatives thereof and functionalized (e.g., mono- or bi-functional) polymers (e.g., polyethylene glycol and related polymers) as well as methods and materials for making and using such conjugates.

This document relates to conjugates of a biologically active molecule or a derivative thereof and functionalized (e.g., mono- or bi-functional) polymers (e.g., polyethylene glycol and related polymers) as well as methods and materials for making and using such conjugates.

The invention relates to a downmodulator of CUB domain-containing protein 1 (CDCP1), for use in a method of treating a patient suffering from castrate-resistant prostate cancer. The invention further relates to a pharmaceutical composition, comprising a downmodulator of CDCP1 and a senolytic compound, and to methods of selecting a patient with prostate cancer eligible for treatment with a combination of downmodulator of CDCP1 and a senolytic compound.

The present invention is directed to antagonistic antibodies and antigen binding fragments thereof having binding specificity for PACAP. These antibodies inhibit, block or neutralize at least one biological effect associated with PACAP, e.g., vasodilation. In exemplary embodiments these antibodies and antigen binding fragments thereof may comprise specific V.sub.H, V.sub.L, and CDR polypeptides described herein. In some embodiments these antibodies and antigen binding fragments thereof bind to and/or compete for binding to specific epitope(s) on human PACAP. The invention is further directed to using these antagonistic anti-PACAP antibodies, and binding fragments thereof, for the diagnosis, assessment, and treatment of diseases and disorders associated with PACAP and conditions where antagonism of PACAP-related activities, such as vasodilation, mast cell degranulation, and/or neuronal activation, are therapeutically beneficial, e.g., headache and migraine indications.

Compounds and pharmaceutical compositions that modulate kinase activity, including PI3 kinase activity, and compounds, pharmaceutical compositions, and methods of treatment of diseases and conditions associated with kinase activity, including PI3 kinase activity, are described herein.

The present disclosure provides methods for inhibiting and/or reducing self-reactive IgE and/or basophils, thereby treating or preventing lupus, lupus nephritis, and lupus-related disorders.
