The present invention relates to antibodies that bind to receptors expressed on the blood brain barrier and methods of using the same.

The invention provides compositions and methods for treating CEA-positive cancers. The method comprising administering a PD-1 axis binding antagonist and a bispecific antibody that targets CEA and CD3.

The present invention relates to methods for upregulating immune responses using combinations of anti-RGMb and anti-PD-1 agents.

The present invention relates to methods for upregulating immune responses using combinations of anti-RGMb and anti-PD-1 agents.

Provided are methods for treating cancer using local administration of certain CpG oligonucleotides (CpG ODN) and systemic administration of a checkpoint inhibitor such as an anti-PD-1 antibody, an anti-PD-L1 antibody, and/or an anti-CTLA-4 antibody. In preferred embodiments, the CpG ODN are selected based on their propensity to induce high amounts of interferon alpha (IFN-α) and T-cell activation relative to interleukin-10 (IL-10) and B-cell activation. In certain embodiments, the methods further include pretreatment with radiotherapy, to potentiate the combination immunotherapy.

The present invention provides compositions and methods for increasing the permeability of a stroma around a neoplasm, and particularly to cancer cells associated with solid tumors. In one embodiment, combining a therapeutic IgE antibody with an anti-cancer agent in accordance with the invention increases the delivery of the anticancer agent to the site of, for example, a solid tumor in a subject. In one embodiment, combining a therapeutic IgE antibody with an anti-cancer agent in accordance with the invention potentiates a tumor's responsiveness and sensitivity to the anti-cancer agent.

The present invention relates to modulators of FAS and DRs and their method of use in the treatment and prevention of diseases and pathologies related to accumulation of senescent cells during aging, such as cancer, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), osteoarthritis, atherosclerosis, neurodegenerative diseases, diabetes, and many others. The present invention also relates to pharmaceutical compositions containing these compounds as well as various uses thereof.

Methods of treating subjects having a proliferative disease, disorder, or condition, including cancer, via the administration of an IL-10 agent, including pegylated IL-10, in combination with an antibody capable of inducing anti-body-dependent cell-mediated cytotoxicity, are provided.

The present invention provides a screening method for a pain suppressor, which method comprises using FLRT3 to select a substance capable of inhibiting FLRT3 expression or a substance capable of inhibiting FLRT3 transport to the spinal cord. In addition, the present invention provides a pharmaceutical composition for prevention or treatment of pain, which pharmaceutical composition comprises, as an active ingredient, a substance capable of inhibiting FLRT3 expression or a substance capable of inhibiting FLRT3 transport to the spinal cord.
