The disclosure provides methods for treating lung cancer (e.g., non-small cell lung cancer) with an anti-PD-L1 antibody in a patient identified using a polynucleotide or polypeptide marker of the disclosure: CXCL9, KRT8, TRIM29, and/or IFNgamma.

In certain aspects, the present disclosure provides compositions and methods for increasing red blood cell and/or hemoglobin levels in a subject in need thereof. Subjects in need include, for example, subjects having anemia and/or ineffective erythropoiesis as a result of having reduced GATA-1, heat shock factor and/or NFE2 levels as compared to the levels in a reference population.

The present invention relates to a binding polypeptide specifically binding to the amino acid sequence W-V-N-X.sup.1-F-Y-X.sup.2 (SEQ ID NO: 1), wherein X.sup.1 represents any amino acid, preferably Q or P, and wherein X.sup.2 represents any amino acid, preferably, T or S in a norovirus polypeptide. The present invention further relates to polynucleotide encoding a binding polypeptide of the present invention an to a host cell comprising the same or the polynucleotide of the invention. The present invention further relates to a method of detecting the presence of a norovirus capsid polypeptide in a sample and to kits, devices, and uses making use of the binding peptide of the invention.

A bispecific epitope binding protein having a multimer of four single-chain chimeric polypeptides of two single-chain chimeric heavy chains and two single-chain chimeric light chains. The bispecific epitope binding protein has a first antigen binding domain that binds specifically to HER2 and a second antigen binding domain that binds specifically to 4-1BB.

There is disclosed compositions and methods relating to or derived from anti-PD-1 antibodies. More specifically, there is disclosed fully human antibodies that bind PD-1, PD-1-binding fragments and derivatives of such antibodies, and PD-1-binding polypeptides comprising such fragments. Further still, there is disclosed nucleic acids encoding such antibodies, antibody fragments and derivatives and polypeptides, cells comprising such polynucleotides, methods of making such antibodies, antibody fragments and derivatives and polypeptides, and methods of using such antibodies, antibody fragments and derivatives and polypeptides, including methods of treating or diagnosing subjects having PD-1 related disorders or conditions, including various inflammatory disorders and various cancers.

Anti-PD-1 antibodies are disclosed. Also disclosed are pharmaceutical compositions comprising such antibodies, and uses and methods using the same.

Described are a therapeutic monoclonal antibody specific for the Type Six Secretion System (T6SS) needle protein of Acinetobacter baumannii (A. baumannii) and methods of use. Specifically, the antibody specifically binds to hemolysin co-regulated protein (Hep). Further disclosed are methods of using an anti-Hep antibody for detecting A. baumannii in a sample as well as a mutant A. baumannii strain comprising a deletion or mutation in its genome such that said deletion or mutation interrupts the proper translation of its hep protein.

The present invention provides methods for enhancing the efficacy and/or safety of a vaccine. In certain embodiments, the invention provides methods to increase or potentiate the immune response to a vaccine in a subject in need thereof. The methods of the present invention comprise administering to a subject in need thereof an interleukin-4 receptor (IL-4R) antagonist such as an anti-IL-4R antibody in combination with said vaccine. In certain embodiments, the methods of the present invention are used to afford enhanced protection to an infectious disease such as whooping cough.

The invention relates to multifunctional PD-1 binding agents and the use of such binding agents in the treatment, prevention and detection of disease.

The invention provides anti-LgR5 antibodies and methods of using the same.
