The invention provides compositions and methods for the cytoplasmic delivery of antibodies and other proteins. Specifically, provided herein are compositions having an anionic polypeptide and a cationic transfection agent for facilitating the cytoplasmic delivery of an antibody or a protein.

Compositions and methods of use thereof for delivering nucleic acid cargo into cells are provided. The compositions typically include (a) a 3E10 monoclonal antibody or an antigen binding, cell-penetrating fragment thereof; a monovalent, divalent, or multivalent single chain variable fragment (scFv); or a diabody; or humanized form or variant thereof, and (b) a nucleic acid cargo including, for example, a nucleic acid encoding a polypeptide, a functional nucleic acid, a nucleic acid encoding a functional nucleic acid, or a combination thereof. Elements (a) and (b) are typically non-covalently linked to form a complex.

Aspects of the disclosure relate to antibodies that bind to transferrin receptor (e.g., transferrin receptor 1) and complexes comprising the antibody covalently linked to a molecular payload. Methods of using the antibodies are also provided.

The present disclosure provides, in one aspect, bifunctional compounds that can be used to promote or enhance degradation of certain circulating proteins. In certain embodiments, the circulating protein mediates a disease and/or disorder in a subject, and treatment or management of the disease and/or disorder requires degradation, removal, or reduction in concentration of the circulating protein in the subject. Thus, in certain embodiments, administration of a compound of the disclosure to the subject removes or reduces the circulation concentration of the circulating protein, thus treating, ameliorating, or preventing the disease and/or disorder.

Aspects of the disclosure relate to complexes comprising a muscle-targeting agent covalently linked to a molecular payload. In some embodiments, the muscle-targeting agent specifically binds to an internalizing cell surface receptor on muscle cells. In some embodiments, the molecular payload inhibits expression or activity of DUX4. In some embodiments, the molecular payload is an oligonucleotide, such as an antisense oligonucleotide or RNAi oligonucleotide.

The present invention provides a Pro-cyclic dinucleotide (Pro-CDN) comprising a STING agonist cyclic dinucleotide which is coupled to a linker system. The Pro-CDNs of the present invention can be metabolized at a targeted site into CDNs and exert their full immunomodulatory effects at said targeted site. The present invention also provides conjugates wherein a Pro-CDN is conjugated to a Biologically Active Molecule (BAM) such as e.g. a cytotoxic molecule, a lipid, a protein, a peptide, a nucleic acid, a sugar or a PRR ligand. The invention provides also methods related to the use of such compounds to perform their activities at their targeted sites, to exert cytotoxic, cytostatic or immunomodulatory effects, to treat or to prevent diseases such as cancers, immunological disorders or infections.

Compositions and methods for treating cancer are provided. In particular, the compositions comprise an anti-neoplastic agent and either an interferon type I agonist or an interferon type II agonist, or a combination of an interferon type I agonist and an interferon type II agonist.

Compositions and methods of use thereof for delivering nucleic acid cargo into cells are provided. The compositions typically include (a) a 3E10 monoclonal antibody or an antigen binding, cell-penetrating fragment thereof; a monovalent, divalent, or multivalent single chain variable fragment (scFv); or a diabody; or humanized form or variant thereof, and (b) a nucleic acid cargo including, for example, a nucleic acid encoding a polypeptide, a functional nucleic acid, a nucleic acid encoding a functional nucleic acid, or a combination thereof. Elements (a) and (b) are typically non-covalently linked to form a complex.

The present invention relates to a conjugate for delivery of biomolecules using a cationic macromolecule as a linker between the biomolecule and biomarker targeting moiety, and the process of making the conjugate.

The present disclosure provides for antibody-oligonucleotide conjugates, methods of preparation thereof, and methods of use thereof. Also provided are related compounds, compositions and kits.
