A composition including an anti-CD123 antibody-drug conjugate and a poly ADP ribose (PARP) inhibitor can be used in therapy or as a medicament. The composition including the anti-CD123 antibody-drug conjugate and the poly ADP ribose (PARP) inhibitor can be used for treating cancer or for inducing cancer cell death in a population of cancer cells. Hematological cancers such as acute myeloid leukemia (AML) can be treated with the composition. Administering an anti-CD123 antibody-drug conjugate and a poly ADP ribose (PARP) inhibitor is a method of treating cancer. Administering, to a population of cancer cells, an anti-CD123 antibody-drug conjugate and a poly ADP ribose (PARP) inhibitor is a method for inducing cancer cell death.

Disclosed herein is an anti-CD79b antibody or antigen-binding fragment thereof, a drug conjugate thereof and use thereof. The anti-CD79b antibody or antigen-binding fragment thereof herein comprises: HCDR1 comprising the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 1; HCDR2 comprising the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 2; HCDR3 comprising the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 3; LCDR1 comprising the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 4; LCDR2 comprising the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 5; and LCDR3 comprising the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 6.

The present invention relates to dual-targeting lipid-polymer hybrid nanoparticles (T-hNPs) comprising a polymer core comprising a heme oxygenase 1 inhibitor and a lipid membrane (shell) comprising a targeting moiety, a kit for preparing the dual-targeting lipid-polymer hybrid nanoparticles, a pharmaceutical composition comprising the dual-targeting lipid-polymer hybrid nanoparticles as an active ingredient, and a method of preventing or treating cancer comprising administering the pharmaceutical composition to a subject in need thereof. Accordingly, the present invention can provide the dual-targeting lipid-polymer hybrid nanoparticles (T-hNPs) comprising a polymer core comprising a heme oxygenase 1 inhibitor and a lipid membrane (shell) comprising a targeting moiety, the kit for preparing the dual-targeting lipid-polymer hybrid nanoparticles (T-hNPs), the pharmaceutical composition comprising the dual-targeting lipid-polymer hybrid nanoparticles (T-hNPs) as an active ingredient, and the method of preventing or treating cancer comprising administering the pharmaceutical composition to a subject in need thereof.

The present invention relates to therapeutic ADCs comprising SN-38 attached to an anti-Trop-2 antibody or antigen-binding antibody fragment, more particularly sacituzumab govitecan. The ADC is administered to a subject with a Trop-2 positive cancer that is resistant to or relapsed from prior treatment with a checkpoint inhibitor. The therapy is effective to treat cancers that are resistant to checkpoint inhibitors.

This invention relates to treatment of cancer using a antibody drug conjugates that comprise PBD molecules in combination with FLT3 inhibitors.

The invention provides antibodies which bind to LY75. Nucleic acid molecules encoding the antibodies, expression vectors, host cells and methods for expressing the antibodies are also provided. The antibodies may be used for the treatment of cancer, including pancreatic cancer, ovarian cancer, breast cancer, colorectal cancer, esophageal cancer, skin cancer, thyroid cancer, lung cancer, bladder cancer, multiple myeloma and lymphoma.

The present disclosure provides an isolated monoclonal antibody or an antigen-binding fragment thereof that binds specifically to leukocyte immunoglobulin-like receptor 4 (LILRB4). In certain embodiments, the antibody or antigen-binding fragment, when bound to LILRB4, modulates the activation of LILRB4. In certain embodiments, the antibody or antigen-binding fragment, when bound to LILRB4, activates LILRB4. In certain embodiments, the antibody or antigen binding fragment, when bound to LILRB4, suppresses activation of LILRB4. In certain embodiments, the antibody or antigen-binding fragment, when bound to LILRB4, specifically blocks binding of ApoE to LILRB4. In another aspect, there is provided a method of treating or ameliorating the effects of a cancer in a subject, comprising administering to the subject a therapeutically effective amount of the antibody or an antigen-binding fragment thereof or an engineered cell as provided herein.

Methods for the treatment of CD30-expressing cancers are provided. The methods comprise administering to a subject in need thereof a weekly dose of from about 0.8 mg/kg to about 1.8 mg/kg of an antibody-drug conjugate compound having formula (I); or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof; wherein: mAb is an anti-CD30 antibody unit, S is a sulfur atom of the antibody, A- is a Stretcher unit, and p is from about 3 to about 5. ##STR00001##

A conjugate comprising a protein or peptide conjugated to a therapeutic, diagnostic or labelling agent via a linker, characterised in that the linker includes at least two ˜(CH.sub.2—CH.sub.2—O—)˜ units within a ring, said ring being attached via a single tethering atom within the ring to the rest of the linker, or said ring being attached via two or more tethering atoms within the ring to the rest of the linker at a single point.

Antibodies which specifically bind to the Axl protein are described. Also disclosed are methods for the production and use of the anti-Axl antibodies.
