OPTIMIZED CROSS-SPECIES SPECIFIC BISPECIFIC SINGLE CHAIN ANTIBODY CONTRUCTS
The present invention provides to a bispecific single chain antibody construct binding to a target cell surface antigen via a first binding domain and to the T cell surface antigen CD3 via a second binding domain, wherein serum albumin is fused to the C-terminus of the antibody construct. Moreover, the invention provides a polynucleotide encoding the antibody construct, a vector comprising said polynucleotide and a host cell transformed or transfected with said vector. Furthermore, the invention provides a process for the production of the antibody construct of the invention, a medical use of said antibody construct and a kit comprising said antibody construct.
COMBINATION THERAPY OF T CELL ACTIVATING BISPECIFIC ANTIGEN BINDING MOLECULES AND PD-1 AXIS BINDING ANTAGONISTS
The present invention generally relates to T cell activating bispecific antigen binding molecules, PD-1 axis binding antagonists, and in particular to combination therapies employing such T cell activating bispecific antigen binding molecules and PD-1 axis binding antagonists, and their use of these combination therapies for the treatment of cancer.
METHODS AND COMPOSITIONS FOR CANCER TREATING CONDITIONS RELATING TO OVER EXPRESSIONS OF EPHA2
An anti-EphA2 scFv single-chain antibody binds with high specificity for EphA2 and blocks ephrin binding to Eph-A2. The antibody may be linked with other antigen-targeting domains, such as an anti-CD20 domain, or conjugated with toxins, or used in combination therapy to for treatment of conditions related to overexpression of EphA2. The antibody may also be expressed in vivo by an expression vector that is designed to facilitate such treatment.
BISPECIFIC ANTIBODIES THAT BIND CD20 AND CD3
The present invention is directed to methods of administrating bispecific anti-CD20×anti-CD3 antibodies.
THERAPEUTIC USE OF MITOCHONDRIA AND COMBINED MITOCHONDRIAL AGENTS
The disclosure relates to compositions comprising isolated mitochondria or combined mitochondrial agents, and methods of treating disorders using such compositions.
BISPECIFIC ANTIBODY TARGETING TRANSFERRIN RECEPTOR 1 AND SOLUBLE ANTIGEN
The invention relates to a bispecific antibody targeting TfR1 and a soluble antigen. The inventors demonstrate that the unique mode of interaction of the bispecific antibody with TfR1 increases its persistence in vivo through an FcRn-like mechanism. It has been demonstrated on MCF7 cell line that the bispecific antibody induces soluble antigen (IL6) uptake through TfR1 mediated endocytosis. Effects of the bispecific antibody on XG6 cell lines viability have been demonstrated, notably on iron and IL-6 deprivation. Hence, the inventors design an improved sweeping antibody which can specifically target tumors and inflammatory cells expressing TfR1. By its unique mode of interaction with TfR1, its ability to induce soluble uptake antigen through TfR1 mediated endocytosis and its capacity to deprive cells of iron, known for being required in tumors growth and progression and development of inflammatory pathologies, the bispecific antibody can be used in the treatment of cancer and inflammatory pathologies.
Methods for the generation of multispecific and multivalent antibodies
The invention provides novel bispecific monoclonal antibodies carrying a different specificity for each binding site of the immunoglobulin molecule and methods for producing novel bispecific monoclonal antibodies carrying a different specificity for each binding site of the immunoglobulin molecule. The antibodies are composed of a single heavy chain and two different light chains, one containing a Kappa constant domain and the other of a Lambda constant domain. The invention provides methods for the isolation of antibodies of different specificities but sharing a common heavy chain. The invention also provides methods for the controlled co-expression of two light chains and a single heavy chain leading to the assembly of monospecific and bispecific antibodies. The invention provides a mean of producing a fully human bispecific and bivalent antibody that is unaltered in sequence and does not involve the use of linkers or other non-human sequences, as well as antibody mixtures of two monospecific antibodies and one bispecific antibody. The invention also provides the means of efficiently purifying the bispecific antibody.
MULTISPECIFIC ANTIBODIES TARGETING CD38 AND BCMA AND USES THEREOF
Disclosed herein are multispecific antibodies comprising a CD38 binding domain and an BCMA binding domain. Further provided herein are methods of treating cancer comprising administering to a subject having cancer a pharmaceutical composition comprising a multispecific antibody comprising a CD38 binding domain and an BCMA binding domain.
ACTIVATABLE POLYPEPTIDE COMPLEX
The present disclosure relates to activatable anti-EGFR, anti-CD3, heteromultimeric bispecific polypeptide complexes (HBPCs) and methods of making and using the same.
NANOBODIES AGAINST TUMOR NECROSIS FACTOR-ALPHA
The present invention relates to improved Nanobodies™ against Tumor Necrosis Factor-alpha (TNF-alpha), as well as to polypeptides comprising or essentially consisting of one or more of such Nanobodies. The invention also relates to nucleic acids encoding such Nanobodies and polypeptides; to methods for preparing such Nanobodies and polypeptides; to host cells expressing or capable of expressing such Nanobodies or polypeptides; to compositions comprising such Nanobodies, polypeptides, nucleic acids or host cells; and to uses of such Nanobodies, such polypeptides, such nucleic acids, such host cells or such compositions, in particular for prophylactic, therapeutic or diagnostic purposes, such as the prophylactic, therapeutic or diagnostic purposes.
