Disclosed are antigen binding polypeptides and antigen binding polypeptide complexes (e.g., antibodies and antigen binding fragments thereof) having certain structural features. Also disclosed are polynucleotides and vectors encoding such polypeptides and polypeptide complexes; chimeric antigen receptors (CARs), cells, pharmaceutical compositions and kits containing such polypeptides and polypeptide complexes; and methods of using such polypeptides and polypeptide complexes.

The present disclosure provides antibodies and polypeptides that specifically bind to mesothelin (MSLN), including bispecific antibodies that bind both MSLN and a T cell antigen (e.g., CD3). Also provided are pharmaceutical compositions comprising these antibodies, nucleic acids encoding these antibodies, expression vectors and host cells for making these antibodies, and methods of treating a subject using these antibodies.

The present invention relates to immunoglobulins that bind IgE and FcγRIIb with high affinity, said compositions being capable of inhibiting cells that express membrane-anchored IgE. Such compositions are useful for treating IgE-mediated disorders, including allergies and asthma.

The invention discloses methods for the generation of chimaeric human-non-human antibodies and chimaeric antibody chains, antibodies and antibody chains so produced, and derivatives thereof including fully humanised antibodies; compositions comprising said antibodies, antibody chains and derivatives, as well as cells, non-human mammals and vectors, suitable for use in said methods.

The present invention provides methods and compositions for the use of IL-22 for treating conditions of intestinal injury and inflammatory conditions such as graft vs. host disease. Specifically, IL-22 can be used to increase Intestinal Stem Cell (ISC) recovery and for enhancing immune reconstitution following allogeneic hematopoietic transplantation. In particularly preferred embodiments, the present invention provides methods of using therapeutic IL-22, including a dimeric form of IL-22, in therapeutic compositions for treating graft vs. host disease, including hepatic, thymic, gastrointestinal, or other graft vs. host disease in hematopoietic stem cell transplant patients and in patients with inflammatory intestinal conditions.

An Fc-binding polypeptide of improved alkali stability, comprising a mutant of an Fc-binding domain of Staphylococcus Protein A (SpA), as defined by SEQ ID NO: 1, SEQ ID NO: 2, SEQ ID NO:3, SEQ ID NO: 4, SEQ ID NO: 5, SEQ ID NO:6, SEQ ID NO:7, SEQ ID NO:8, SEQ ID NO 26 or SEQ ID NO 27, wherein at least the alanine residue at the position corresponding to position 42 in SEQ ID NO:4-7 has been mutated to arginine and/or wherein at least the aspartic acid residue at the position corresponding to position 37 in SEQ ID NO:4-7 has been mutated to glutamic acid.

An Fc-binding polypeptide of improved alkali stability, comprising a mutant of an Fc-binding domain of Staphylococcus Protein A (SpA), as defined by SEQ ID NO: 1, SEQ ID NO: 2, SEQ ID NO:3, SEQ ID NO: 4, SEQ ID NO: 5, SEQ ID NO:6, SEQ ID NO:7, SEQ ID NO:8, SEQ ID NO 26 or SEQ ID NO 27, wherein at least the alanine residue at the position corresponding to position 42 in SEQ ID NO:4-7 has been mutated to arginine and/or wherein at least the aspartic acid residue at the position corresponding to position 37 in SEQ ID NO:4-7 has been mutated to glutamic acid.

The present invention provides efficient methods based on alteration of the protein A-binding ability, for producing or purifying multispecific antibodies having the activity of binding to two or more types of antigens to high purity through a protein A-based purification step alone. The methods of the present invention for producing or purifying multispecific antibodies which feature altering amino acid residues of antibody heavy chain constant region and/or variable region. Multispecific antibodies with an altered protein A-binding ability, which exhibit plasma retention comparable or longer than that of human IgG1, can be efficiently prepared in high purity by introducing amino acid alterations of the present invention into antibodies.

The present invention relates to an in vitro method for production of heterodimeric proteins.

The present invention is directed to antibodies, including novel antigen binding domains and heterodimeric antibodies, that bind Ectonucleotide pyrophosphatase/phosphodiesterase family member 3 (ENPP3).
