The invention is directed to a bispecific chimeric antigen receptor, comprising: (a) at least two antigen-specific targeting regions; (b) an extracellular spacer domain; (c) a transmembrane domain; (d) at least one co-stimulatory domain; and (e) an intracellular signaling domain, wherein each antigen-specific targeting region comprises an antigen-specific single chain Fv (scFv) fragment, and binds a different antigen, and wherein the bispecific chimeric antigen receptor is co-expressed with a therapeutic control. The invention also provides methods and uses of the bispecific chimeric antigen receptors.

The present disclosure relates to an engineered antibody that co-engages a cell type-selective (or specific) antigen (guide) and a signaling receptor (effector) on a target cell. In some instances, the engineered antibody is capable of modulating a signaling pathway on a target cell. In other embodiments, an engineered antibody of the present disclosure is administered to a subject for the treatment of a disease or condition.

Disclosed are antigen binding polypeptides and antigen binding polypeptide complexes (e.g., antibodies and antigen binding fragments thereof) having certain structural features. Also disclosed are polynucleotides and vectors encoding such polypeptides and polypeptide complexes; host cells; chimeric antigen receptors (CARs); immune cells; pharmaceutical compositions and kits containing such polypeptides and polypeptide complexes; and methods of using such polypeptides and polypeptide complexes.

Herein is reported a method for producing a bispecific antibody comprising the step of incubating (i) an antibody Fab fragment or a scFv antibody comprising within the 20 C-terminal amino acid residues the amino acid sequence LPX1TG (SEQ ID NO: 01), (ii) a one-armed antibody comprising a full length antibody heavy chain, a full length antibody light chain, and an Fc-heavy chain, whereby the full length antibody heavy chain and the full length antibody light chain are cognate antibody chains that thereof forms an antigen binding site, whereby the full length antibody heavy chain and the Fc-heavy chain are covalently linked to each other via one or more disulfide bonds forming an antibody hinge region, and whereby the Fc-heavy chain has an oligoglycine amino acid sequence at its N-terminus, and (iii) a Sortase A enzyme.

The present invention concerns modified recombinant J-chain polypeptides, binding molecules, such as antibodies comprising the same, and their uses.

Provided herein are trispecific and/or trivalent binding proteins comprising four polypeptide chains that form three antigen binding sites that specifically bind one or more target proteins, wherein a first pair of polypeptides forming the binding protein possess dual variable domains having a cross-over orientation, and wherein and a second pair of polypeptides possess a single variable domain forming a single antigen binding site. In some embodiments, the binding proteins comprise a binding site that binds a CD28 polypeptide, a binding site that binds a CD3 polypeptide, and a binding site that binds a third polypeptide, such as a tumor target protein. In some embodiments, the binding proteins comprise four polypeptide chains that form three antigen binding sites that specifically bind one or more HIV target proteins. The disclosure also relates to methods for making trispecific and/or trivalent binding proteins and uses of such binding proteins.

The present disclosure provides methods for purifying multispecific antibodies from a mispaired variant thereof by performing a multi-mode chromatography.

This invention provides a tetrahedral antibody comprising a first, second, third, and fourth domain, wherein each of the first and second domains are selected from the group consisting of a Fab domain and an Fc domain, wherein each of the first and second domains comprise a first polypeptide chain comprising a first N-terminus and a first C-terminus of the domain, and a second polypeptide chain comprising a second N-terminus and a second C-terminus of the domain, and wherein the first domain and the second domain are joined to each other by a non-peptidyl linkage between the first N-terminus of the first domain and the first N-terminus of the second domain, between first C-terminus of the first domain and the first C-terminus of the second domain, between the first N-terminus of the first domain and the first C-terminus of the second domain, or between the first C-terminus of the first domain and the first N-terminus of the second domain.
