Method for separating cells using immunorosettes and magnetic particles
10081793 · 2018-09-25 · ·

The present invention relates to methods for separating target cells from non-target cells using immunorosettes and magnetic particles. The method involves contacting a sample containing target cells and secondary targets such as erythrocytes with an antibody composition which allows immunorosettes of the target cells and the secondary targets to form. The sample is subsequently contacted with a second antibody composition which allows the binding of magnetic particles to the formed immunorosettes and free secondary targets. The immunorosettes and secondary targets labeled with magnetic particles are separated from non-target cells using a magnetic field. The antibody composition optionally contains bifunctional antibodies or tetrameric antibody complexes.

ANTI-CD19 scFv (FMC63) POLYPEPTIDE AND USES THEREOF

Provided are monoclonal antibodies that detect CD19 CAR-modified immune cells and CAR-modified immune cells irrespective of the tumor associated antigen they target. Methods of using these functional monoclonal antibodies include, but are not limited to, detection, quantification, activation, and selective propagation of CAR-modified immune cells.

ANTIBODIES TARGETING B-CELL RECEPTOR COMPLEX MEMBRANE BOUND IGM AND USES THEREOF

The present invention relates to antibodies targeting the membrane bound IgM (mIgM) of the B-cell receptor complex found in B-cell lymphomas and leukemias and uses thereof. Another aspect of the present invention is the use of anti-B-Cell mIgM antibodies in the treatment of Be-cell malignancies, including B-cell lymphomas and leukemias.

Method For The In Situ Formation of Bifunctional Immunological Complexes
20180188245 · 2018-07-05 ·

An improved method for the preparation of tetrameric antibody complexes directly on the surface of target entities in a sample is described. In particular, this method involves linking, in the sample, a first target entity with a second target entity in a sample using antibodies with specificity for the first and second target entities.

HETERODIMERIC PROTEINS

Provided herein are heterodimeric proteins (e.g., multispecific antibodies) that exhibit enhanced binding to human Fc gamma receptor IIIA (FcRIIIA) relative to naturally occurring antibodies and retain good manufacturability. Such heterodimeric proteins are particular useful as multispecific binding proteins (e.g., multispecific antibodies). Also provided are pharmaceutical compositions comprising these heterodimeric proteins, nucleic acids encoding these heterodimeric proteins, and expression vectors and host cells for making these heterodimeric proteins.

Engineered Artificial Antigen Presenting Cells for Tumor Infiltrating Lymphocyte Expansion

In some embodiments, compositions and methods relating to isolated artificial antigen presenting cells (aAPCs) are disclosed, including aAPCs comprising a myeloid cell transduced with one or more viral vectors, such as a MOLM-14 or a EM-3 myeloid cell, wherein the myeloid cell endogenously expresses HLA-AB/C, ICOS-L, and CD58, and wherein the one or more viral vectors comprise a nucleic acid encoding CD86 and a nucleic acid encoding 4-1BBL and/or OX40L and transduce the myeloid cell to express CD86 and 4-1BBL and/or OX40L proteins. In some embodiments, methods of expanding tumor infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs) with aAPCs and methods of treating cancers using TILs after expansion with aAPCs are also disclosed.

Non-cross-reactive anti IgG antibodies

Herein are reported the cell lines DSM ACC3006, DSM ACC3007, and DSM ACC3008, as well as the antibodies obtained from the cell lines and the use of an antibody obtained from the cell lines in an immunoassay. Also are reported antibodies binding to human or chimpanzee IgG and not binding to canine and marmoset IgG and antibodies specifically binding to an IgG 1 that comprises a kappa light chain constant domain.

Triple combination antibody therapies

The present invention is directed to triple combination therapies with anti-TIGIT antibodies, anti-PVRIG antibodies, and checkpoint inhibitors, including anti-PD-1 or anti-PD-L1 antibodies.

Tetanus prophylaxis

The present invention relates to single domain antibodies (SDAs) that are capable of binding to tetanus neurotoxin. The invention further relates to polypeptide constructs comprising such an SDA as well as an SDA that is capable of binding to a serum protein, preferably to serum albumin or immunoglobulin. The invention also relates to nucleic acids encoding such SDAs or polypeptide constructs, to pharmaceutical compositions comprising such SDAs or polypeptide constructs, the medical use thereof and to their use in the treatment of tetanus.

Anti-drug antibody assay

The invention provides an antibody binding specifically to Cynomolgus IgG characterized by not binding to Human IgG, and a method for the immunological determination of an immune complex (DA/ADA complex) of a drug antibody (DA) and an antibody against said drug antibody (anti-drug antibody, ADA) in a sample of a monkey species using a double antigen bridging immunoassay.
