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 relates to compositions and methods for the treatment of immunodeficiency (e.g., primary immunodeficiency disease). In particular, the invention provides human plasma immunoglobulin compositions containing select antibody titers specific for a plurality of respiratory pathogens, methods of identifying human donors and donor samples for use in the compositions, methods of manufacturing the compositions, and methods of utilizing the compositions (e.g., for prophylactic administration and/or therapeutic treatment (e.g., passive immunization (e.g., immune-prophylaxis))).

The present invention provides a novel antibody-pyrrolodiazepine derivative and a novel antibody-pyrrolodiazepine derivative conjugate using the same, and a novel CLDN6 and/or CLDN9 antibody.

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.

Antigen-binding molecules (ABMs) that bind to Porphyromonas gingivalis are described. The ABMs may be human or humanized ABMs. The ABMs find use in treating infections involving P. gingivalis, such as periodontal disease. Also provided are methods of treating or preventing a disorder or disease by administering the ABM.

Provided herein are antibodies, such as immunoglobulins Y (IgY) antibodies that inhibit beta-lactamase activity, e.g., TEM-1 beta-lactamase, as well as related compositions and methods of use thereof to treat infections by lactam-based antibiotic bacteria that produce beta-lactamase that can degrade antibiotics.

Vaccines for preventing or treating diabetes, obesity and complications thereof are provided. The vaccines comprise at least one active agent such as attenuated Porphyromonas gingivalis, inactivated Porphyromonas gingivalis, a subunit of Porphyromonas gingivalis, a recombinant or isolated immunogenic polypeptide or peptide from Porphyromonas gingivalis or a cDNA from Porphyromonas gingivalis.

The invention relates to generation and use of cellular and humoral responses for the prevention and treatment of P. gingivalis related conditions and diseases.

The present disclosure relates generally to polypeptides, which may be used of the treatment of neurological diseases or disorders.

A composition comprising intact killed bacterial cells that contain a therapeutic nucleic acid, a drug or a functional nucleic acid is useful for targeted delivery to mammalian cells. The targeted delivery optionally employs bispecific ligands, comprising a first arm that carries specificity for a killed bacterial cell surface structure and a second arm that carries specificity for a mammalian cell surface receptor, to target killed bacterial cells to specific mammalian cells and to cause endocytosis of the killed bacterial cells by the mammalian cells. Alternatively, the delivery method exploits the natural ability of phagocytic mammalian cells to engulf killed bacterial cells without the use of bispecific ligands.
