DRUG CONJUGATE HAVING ENHANCED DRUG DELIVERY AND INTERNALIZATION EFFICIENCY
The present invention relates to a unit drug conjugate wherein a binding group capable of binding to another unit drug conjugate is additionally linked to a unit drug conjugate in which a targeting substance, which binds specifically to target cells, and a drug, are linked together. When the unit drug conjugates according to the present invention are sequentially administered in vivo, complexes form a cluster by in vivo crosslinking, and the cluster promotes endocytosis of the drug conjugate, thereby significantly enhancing cellular internalization of the drug included in the drug conjugate.
IL-2/IL15 COMPOSITIONS AND METHODS OF USE THEREOF
Provided are activatable proprotein heterodimers comprising at least two separate polypeptide chains, one chain comprising an IL-2 protein fused to an IL-15 binding protein such as IL-15Rα, and another chain comprising an IL-15 protein fused to an IL-2 binding protein such as IL-2Rα, among other features including binding moieties and cleavable linkers, and related pharmaceutical compositions and methods of use thereof.
ARRDC1-MEDIATED MICROVESICLE-BASED DELIVERY TO THE NERVOUS SYSTEM
Methods, systems, compositions and strategies for the use of ARMM-mediated delivery of molecules (e.g., biological molecules, small molecules, proteins, and nucleic acids (e.g., DNA, RNA), DNA plasmids shRNA, mRNA) to cells of the nervous system (e.g., central nervous system and peripheral nervous system).
ACTIVATABLE PROCYTOKINES
Provided are activatable proprotein or procytokine homodimers composed of at least two separate polypeptide chains, each chain comprising a binding moiety such as an Fc region, a cytokine, a cytokine receptor, and at least one a cleavable linker, among other optional features, and related pharmaceutical compositions and methods of use thereof.
STEROID ACID-PEPTIDE BASED CYTOTOXIC COMPOUNDS
Agents having cytotoxic activity, as well as compositions, uses, and methods relating thereto, are described herein. Certain steroid acid-peptide conjugates or moieties have the ability to induce killing or inhibition of proliferation of mammalian cells, in vitro or in vivo upon administration to a subject. The steroid acid-peptide conjugates include bile acids and bile acid analogs and peptides that may include a nuclear localisation signal or a portion thereof. Also described herein is a method for treating cancer, an autoimmune disease, or any other disease or disorder ameliorated by treatment with an antiproliferative drug in a subject in a subject with the cytotoxic agents described herein.

BIOMARKERS OF METAP2 INHIBITORS AND APPLICATIONS THEREOF
The present disclosure relates to modified or polymer conjugated MetAP2 inhibitors. The present disclosure also relates to methods of treating, or ameliorating at least one symptom of, metabolic dysfunction associated with a treatment in a subject having cancer. The present disclosure also relates to methods of treating, or ameliorating at least one symptom of, cancer comprising administering a combination of a polymer conjugated MetAP2 inhibitors and at least one second agent.
USP9X INHIBITORS
The invention relates to compounds that inhibit DUBs, particularly USP9X. The invention also includes methods of inhibiting DUBs, including USP9X, and methods of treating cancers.

Antibodies specific for sclerostin and methods for increasing bone mineralization
Compositions and methods relating to antibodies that specifically bind to TGF-beta binding proteins are provided. These methods and compositions relate to altering bone mineral density by interfering with the interaction between a TGF-beta binding protein sclerostin and a TGF-beta superfamily member, particularly a bone morphogenic protein. Increasing bone mineral density has uses in diseases and conditions in which low bone mineral density typifies the condition, such as osteopenia, osteoporosis, and bone fractures.
