The present invention relates to an antigen-binding protein, preferably a monoclonal antibody, against annexin A2 (ANXA2), comprising (i) a heavy chain variable domain comprising a VHCDR1 of sequence GYSITSGYSWH, a VHCDR2 of sequence YIHYSGSTKYNPSLKS and a VHCDR3 of sequence GSNYGFDY; and (ii) a light chain variable domain comprising a VLCDR1 of sequence KSSQSLLYSNDQKNYLA, a VLCDR2 of sequence WASIRES, and a VLCDR3 of sequence QQYYIYPLT. Also provided is an ANXA2 binding protein comprising (i) a heavy chain variable domain comprising a VHCDR1 of sequence VYSITSGYSWH; a VHCDR2 of sequence YIHYSGSTKYNPSLKS, and a VHCDR3 of sequence GTDNAVDY; and (ii) a light chain variable domain comprising a VLCDR1 of sequence KSSQSLLYSSNQKNYLA, a VLCDR2 of sequence WASSRES, and a VLCDR3 of sequence QQYYIYPLT. The antibodies preferably bind to an N-linked glycan on ANXA2, and are internalised upon binding. They may be conjugated with cytotoxins and may be used in the treatment or detection of cancer.

The present disclosure provides a novel antibody, antigen binding fragment thereof, or an antibody conjugate thereof, useful in methods for treatment or diagnosis of conditions characterized by the expression of PTGFRN. The antibodies or antigen binding fragments thereof may also be used in imaging or detecting cells that express PTGFRN.

The present disclosure provides anti-CD73 binding molecules, e.g., antibodies and antigen binding fragments thereof. Also provided are pharmaceutical formulations comprising the disclosed compositions, and methods for the diagnosis and treatment of diseases associated with CD73-expression, e.g., cancer. Such diseases can be treated, e.g., by direct therapy with the anti-CD73 binding molecules disclosed herein (e.g., naked antibodies or antibody-drug conjugates that bind CD73), by adjuvant therapy with other antigen-binding anticancer agents such as immune checkpoint inhibitors (e.g., anti-CTLA-4 and anti-PD-1 monoclonal antibodies), and/or by combination therapies where the anti-CD73 molecules are administered before, after, or concurrently with chemotherapy.

The present invention relates to conjugates, in particular antibody-drug conjugates and immunotoxins, having the formula I:

A-(L-D)p (I)

or a pharmaceutically acceptable salts or solvates thereof, wherein: A is an antibody that selectively binds FAP; L is a linker; D is a drug comprising a cytolysin or a Nigrin-b A-chain; and p is 1 to 10, and to use of such conjugates in the therapeutic treatment of tumors. Methods of producing such conjugates and components for use in such methods are disclosed.

This invention relates to the use of monoclonal and polyclonal antibodies that specifically bind to and have the ability in the alternative to become internalized by cells expressing folate receptor alpha (FRA) and to induce an immune effector activity such as antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity. The antibodies are useful in specific delivery of pharmacologic agents to FRA-expressing cells as well as in eliciting an immune-effector activity particularly on tumor cells and precursors. The invention is also related to nucleotides encoding the antibodies of the invention, cells expressing the antibodies; methods of detecting cancer cells; and methods of treating cancer using the antibodies.

Disclosed herein are non-myeloablative antibody-toxin conjugates and compositions that target cell surface markers, such as the CD34, CD45 or CD117 receptors, and related methods of their use to effectively conditioning a subject's tissues (e.g., bone marrow tissue) prior to engraftment or transplant. The compositions and methods disclosed herein may be used to condition a subject's tissues in advance of, for example, hematopoietic stem cell transplant and advantageously such compositions and methods do not cause the toxicities that are commonly associated with traditional conditioning methods.

Novel modulators, including antibodies and derivatives thereof, and methods of using such modulators to treat proliferative disorders are provided.

Provided is an antibody for treating a cancer, more specifically, an anti-CD43 antibody binding to an extracellular domain of CD43, compositions for treating a cancer or inhibiting a cancer stem cell comprising the antibody as an active ingredient, and methods for screening an agent of inhibiting a cancer stem cell.

The present invention relates to conjugates, in particular antibody-drug conjugates and immunotoxins, having the formula I: A-(L-D)p (I) or a pharmaceutically acceptable salts or solvates thereof, wherein: A is an antibody that selectively binds FAP; L is a linker; D is a drug comprising a cytolysin or a Nigrin-b A-chain; and p is 1 to 10, and to use of such conjugates in the therapeutic treatment of tumors. Methods of producing such conjugates and components for use in such methods are disclosed.

Novel modulators, including antibodies and derivatives thereof, and methods of using such modulators to treat proliferative disorders are provided.
