A tissue factor (TF)-targeted antibody-drug conjugate (ADC) and a method for preparing the ADC. The ADC is capable of binding to TF antigen with high specificity, and has high affinity, low immunogenicity, high cytotoxicity, and significant anti-tumor activity.

The invention relates to isolated single-domain antibodies (sdAb) directed against von Willebrand Factor (VWF) D′D3 domain and chimeric polypeptides comprising thereof such as blood clotting factors and their uses in therapy such as in the prevention and treatment of hemostatic disorders. The invention also relates to a method of extending or increasing half-life of a therapeutic polypeptide comprising a step of adding to the polypeptide sequence of said therapeutic polypeptide at least one sdAb directed against VWF D′D3 domain

The present invention relates to methods, treatment regimens, uses, kits and therapies for prevention of graft rejection in solid organ transplantation, particularly solid organ xenotransplantation, by administering an anti-CD40 antibody or a combination of an anti-CD40 antibody and an anti-C5 antibody.

The inventors discovered that viscosity of a protein solution can be estimated by measuring the apparent particle size or apparent molecular weight by a small angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) method or X-ray solution scattering method, which enables measurement of small amounts of samples, and then correlating those measurement results with viscosity of the protein solution.

The present disclosure provides antibodies that selectively binds to specific forms of clotting factors, in particular, antibodies that specifically binds to activated factor IX (FIXa) wherein the anti-FIXa antibody or an antigen binding portion thereof preferentially binds to FIXa in the presence of FIXa and factor IX zymogen (FIXz), and antibodies that specifically bind to factor X zymogen (FXz) wherein the anti-FXz antibody or antigen binding portion thereof preferentially binds to FXz in the presence of FXz and activated factor X (FXa). Also provided are bispecific molecules (e.g., antibodies) comprising, e.g., an anti-FIXa antibody or antigen binding portion thereof and/or an anti-FXz antibody or antigen binding portion thereof. The disclosure also provides compositions encoding the disclosed antibodies and bispecific molecules, vectors, cells, pharmaceutical and diagnostic compositions, kits, methods of manufacture, methods of use, and immunoconjugates.

The invention relates to isolated, synthetic or recombinant antibodies and fragments thereof specific for factor H. The invention further relates to the use of such antibodies and fragments for inhibiting complement activation and treatment of disorders associated with complement activation.

Antibodies that bind the apple 3 domain of human coagulation Factor XI and inhibit activation of FXI by coagulation factor XIIa as well as activation of FIX by FXIa are described.
