The present inventive concept is related to antibodies, such as recombinant humanized and monoclonal antibodies, methods of making antibodies, and methods of using antibodies, such as antibodies directed toward and capable of specifically binding to and clearing amyloid-beta (Aβ) plaques in the brain that are suitable for use in the treatment of disorders such as Alzheimer's Disease (AD).

COMPOSITIONS AND METHODS FOR CO-POTENTIATION OF CD3 TO TREAT A VIRAL INFECTION AND INCREASE THE IMMUNE RESPONSE AGAINST A VIRAL ANTIGEN
20230203163 · 2023-06-29 ·

The present disclosure is generally directed to compositions and methods for treating viral infections. In particular, pharmaceutical compositions of the present disclosure include a monovalent anti-CD3 antibody and a viral antigen and their use as adjuvants to treat a viral infection and to increase the immune response produced against a viral antigen.

Combined preparations for the treatment of cancer or infection
11684654 · 2023-06-27 · ·

Combined preparations, and pharmaceutical compositions, comprising: (a) LAG-3 protein, or a derivative thereof that is able to bind to MHC class II molecules; and (b) a programmed cell death protein-1 (PD-1) pathway inhibitor, are described. The PD-1 pathway inhibitor, such as an anti-PD-1 antibody or an anti-PD-L1 antibody, and a soluble derivative of LAG-3, acting as an APC activator, together synergistically activate T cells (in particular, CD8.sup.+ T cells). Use of the combined preparations and compositions as medicaments, in particular for the treatment of cancer or infection, and to methods for the treatment of cancer or infection, is described.

Variant CD3-binding domains and their use in combination therapies for the treatment of disease

The present invention is directed to DA×CD3 Binding Molecules comprising a vCD3-Binding Domain, which comprises a CDRHI Domain, a CDRH2 Domain, a CDRH3 Domain, a CDRL I Domain, a CDRL2 Domain, and a CDRL3 Domain, at least one of which differs in amino acid sequence from the amino acid sequence of the corresponding CDR of a rCD3-Binding Domain, wherein the DA×CD3 Binding Molecule comprising such vCD3-Binding Domain exhibits an altered affinity for CD3, relative to a DA×CD3 Binding Molecule comprising such rCD3-Binding Domain. The invention particularly concerns to such DA×CD3 Binding Molecules comprising a vCD3-Binding Domain which exhibit reduced affinity for CD3 and are capable of mediating redirected killing of target cells expressing a DA and exhibit lower levels of cytokine release relative to a DA×CD3 Binding Molecule comprising a rCD3-Binding Domain. The invention particularly concerns the use of DA×CD3 Binding Molecules comprising a vCD3-Binding Domain in the treatment of cancer and pathogen-associated diseases. The present invention is also directed to pharmaceutical compositions that comprise such molecule(s).
