Provided herein, in certain aspects, are antibodies that bind to IL-1β and compositions comprising the antibodies. Methods of making and using the antibodies are also provided.

A therapeutic molecule (single chain-based antibody or ligand-based) optimized for expression and secretion from engineered T cells, which may be gamma delta (gd) T cells. When expressed from engineered gdT cells, the STAR will be secreted and mediate engagement between gdT cells and antigen/receptor on target cells. Binding mediates the formation of a cytolytic synapse between the gdT cell and the target cell leading to activation the gdT cells to release proteolytic enzymes that kill target cells.

A transgenic non-human animal is provided. In certain embodiments, the animal comprises a genome comprising an immunoglobulin heavy chain locus comprising: a) a transcribed gene encoding a fusion protein comprising, from N-terminus to C-terminus: i. a scaffold comprising a first binding domain; and ii. a heavy chain constant region operably linked to the scaffold; wherein the scaffold is capable of specifically binding to a target in the absence of additional polypeptides; and b) a plurality of pseudogenes that are operably linked to the transcribed gene and that donate, by gene conversion, nucleotide sequence to the part of the transcribed gene that encodes the binding domain.

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.

Provided herein are antibodies that specifically bind to GPRC5D. Also described are related polynucleotides capable of encoding the provided GPRC5D-specific antibodies or antigen-binding fragments, cells expressing the provided antibodies or antigen-binding fragments, as well as associated vectors and detectably labeled antibodies or antigen-binding fragments. In addition, methods of using the provided antibodies are described. For example, the provided antibodies may be used to diagnose, treat, or monitor GPRC5D-expressing cancer progression, regression, or stability; to determine whether or not a patient should be treated for cancer; or to determine whether or not a subject is afflicted with GPRC5D-expressing cancer and thus may be amenable to treatment with a GPRC5D-specific anti-cancer therapeutic, such as the multispecific antibodies against GPRC5D and CD3 described herein.

This document provides methods and materials involved in treating cancer. For example, methods and materials for using a BiPE that can include (a) one or more molecules having the ability to bind to a cancer cell (e.g., a human breast cancer cell), (b) an optional linker component, and (c) one or more molecules having the ability to bind to an antigen presenting cell (e.g., a human macrophage) to treat cancer are provided.

Provided herein are VHH-containing polypeptides that bind CD33. Uses of the VHH-containing polypeptides are also provided.

An anti-canine CD16 polypeptide generally includes a CDR region of SEQ ID NO:5, a CDR region of SEQ ID NO:9, or a functional variant of either CDR region. An anti-canine CD64 polypeptide generally includes a CDR region of SEQ ID NO:13, a CDR region of SEQ ID NO:17, or a functional variant of either CDR region. The anti-canine CD16 polypeptide and anti-canine CD64 polypeptide may be incorporated into a therapeutic compound, a multispecific compound, a targeted imaging compound, or a capture assay device.

This invention relates to anti-CD73 antibodies and methods of using them in treating diseases and conditions related to CD73 activity, e.g., cancer.

Compositions and methods of use thereof for delivering nucleic acid cargo into cells are provided. The compositions typically include (a) a 3E10 monoclonal antibody or an antigen binding, cell-penetrating fragment thereof; a monovalent, divalent, or multivalent single chain variable fragment (scFv); or a diabody; or humanized form or variant thereof, and (b) a nucleic acid cargo including, for example, a nucleic acid encoding a polypeptide, a functional nucleic acid, a nucleic acid encoding a functional nucleic acid, or a combination thereof. Elements (a) and (b) are typically non-covalently linked to form a complex.
