Antibodies, antibody drug conjugates and methods of use
This invention relates to antibody drug conjugates (ADC), antibody conjugates (AC) and novel antibodies. Particularly, the ADC, AC and antibodies disclosed herein specifically bind to the human anti-Mllerian hormone type II receptor (AMHR-II) and can be used to treat and/or identify AMHR-II expressing cancers, such as prostate cancer, breast cancer and gynecologic cancers expressing AMHR-II, such as ovarian cancer, in particular metastatic ovarian cancer, serous cancer, hypernephroma, endometrioid, colloidal epithelium, prostate cancer, germ cell cancer, endometrial cancer, mixed Mllerian malignant tumor of the uterus, leiomyosarcoma, or endometrial stromal sarcoma.
Antagonists for abdominal vasopressin V2 receptor and uses thereof
Provided herein are antagonists or binding agents of an abnormal vasopressin receptor V.sub.2 (e.g., AbnV.sub.2), such as antibodies and antigen-binding portions thereof specific for the receptor, for identifying and targeting cancer cells expressing such abnormal vasopressin receptor V.sub.2. Additionally provided are methods of using said antagonists or binding agents, for example, to image cancer cells or in biological samples, or diagnose cancers, both in vivo and in vitro. The antagonists or binding agents may also be used for treating patients suffering from a cancer expressing the abnormal vasopressin receptor V.sub.2, such as small cell lung cancer (SCLC), breast cancer, or ovarian cancer.
Structural Optimization Method to Improve the Theranostic Performance of Peptide Receptor-Targeted Radionuclide Therapy for Cancers
The present invention provides in certain embodiments a carcinoma-targeting conjugate comprising Formula I:
T-L-X wherein T is a SSTR2 targeting ligand, L is a linker, and X is a chelator, for the therapeutic treatment of cancer, and methods of use thereof.
ANTAGONISTS FOR ABDOMINAL VASOPRESSIN V2 RECEPTOR AND USES THEREOF
Provided herein are antagonists or binding agents of an abnormal vasopressin receptor V.sub.2 (e.g., AbnV.sub.2), such as antibodies and antigen-binding portions thereof specific for the receptor, for identifying and targeting cancer cells expressing such abnormal vasopressin receptor V.sub.2. Additionally provided are methods of using said antagonists or binding agents, for example, to image cancer cells or in biological samples, or diagnose cancers, both in vivo and in vitro. The antagonists or binding agents may also be used for treating patients suffering from a cancer expressing the abnormal vasopressin receptor V.sub.2, such as small cell lung cancer (SCLC), breast cancer, or ovarian cancer.
ANTIBODIES, ANTIBODY DRUG CONJUGATES AND METHODS OF USE

Particularly, the ADC, AC and antibodies disclosed herein specifically bind to the human anti-Mllerian hormone type II receptor (AMHR-II) and can be used to treat and/or identify AMHR-II expressing cancers, such as prostate cancer, breast cancer and gynecologic cancers expressing AMHR-II, such as ovarian cancer, in particular metastatic ovarian cancer, serous cancer, hypernephroma, endometrioid, colloidal epithelium, prostate cancer, germ cell cancer, endometrial cancer, mixed Mllerian malignant tumor of the uterus, leiomyosarcoma, or endometrial stromal sarcoma.
Structural optimization method to improve the theranostic performance of peptide receptor-targeted radionuclide therapy for cancers
The present invention provides in certain embodiments a carcinoma-targeting conjugate comprising Formula I:
T-L-X wherein T is a SSTR2 targeting ligand, L is a linker, and X is a chelator, for the therapeutic treatment of cancer, and methods of use thereof.
Cysteine linked nanobody dimers
The present invention relates to dimers comprising a first polypeptide and a second polypeptide, wherein each of said first and second polypeptide comprises at least one immunoglobulin single variable domain (ISVD) and a C-terminal extension comprising a cysteine moiety (preferably at the C-terminus), wherein said first polypeptide and said second polypeptide are covalently linked via a disulfide bond between the cysteine moiety of said first polypeptide and the cysteine moiety of said second polypeptide, in which the dimer outperformed the benchmark constructs, e.g. cognate multivalent and multispecific constructs, in various assays. The present invention provides methods for making the dimers of the invention.
Structural optimization method to improve the theranostic performance of peptide receptor-targeted radionuclide therapy for cancers
The present invention provides in certain embodiments a carcinoma-targeting conjugate comprising Formula I wherein T is a SST2R targeting ligand, L is a linker, and X is a chelator, for the therapeutic treatment of cancer, and methods of use thereof.
