Provided herein are HLA-PEPTIDE targets and antigen binding proteins that bind HLA-PEPTIDE targets. Also disclosed are methods for identifying the HLA-PEPTIDE targets as well as identifying one or more antigen binding proteins that bind a given HLA-PEPTIDE target.

The present invention provides monoclonal antibodies that bind to the natriuretic peptide receptor 1 (NPR1) protein, and methods of use thereof. In various embodiments of the invention, the antibodies are fully human antibodies that bind to NPR1. In some embodiments, the antibodies of the invention are useful for activating NPR1 activity, thus providing a means of treating or preventing a disease, disorder or condition associated with NPR1 in humans.

Multispecific Treg-binding molecules, constructs, pharmaceutical compositions comprising the constructs, and methods of use thereof are presented.

Isolated antibodies that bind to human TIGIT (T-cell immunoreceptor with Ig and ITIM domains) are provided. In some embodiments, the antibody has a binding affinity (K.sub.D) for human TIGIT of less than 5 nM. In some embodiments, the anti-TIGIT antibody blocks binding of CD155 and/or CD112 to TIGIT. In some embodiments, the antibodies are afucosylated.

The disclosure pertains to conformational epitopes in oligomeric tau, antibodies thereto and methods of making and using immunogens and antibodies specific thereto. The antibodies bind activity neutralizing sites in tau. Also provided are methods for making and using, including methods for treating a tauopathy.

The present disclosure provides antigen-binding proteins that specifically bind to an H LA-displayed New York esophageal squamous cell carcinoma 1 (NY-ESO-1) peptide, and therapeutic and diagnostic methods of using those binding proteins. The antigen-binding proteins of the present disclosure bind with a high degree of specificity to HLA-displayed NY-ESO-1 and do not bind to HLA-displayed peptides that differ by 2, 3, 4, 5 or more amino acids.

The objective of the invention is to provide cross-species anti-latent TGF-beta 1 antibodies which inhibit a protease mediated activation of latent TGF-beta 1 without inhibiting integrin mediated activation of latent TGF-beta 1. To obtain the anti-latent TGF-beta 1 antibodies of the invention, anti-latent-latent TGF-beta 1 antibodies which inhibit a protease mediated activation of latent TGF-beta 1 without inhibiting integrin mediated activation of latent TGF-beta 1 were screened, and then humanized, and further optimized. The invention also provides combination therapies comprising an anti-latent TGF-beta 1 antibody and one or more immune checkpoint inhibitors, preferably a PD-1 axis binding antagonists.

The present invention relates to a bispecific polypeptide molecule comprising a first polypeptide chain and a second polypeptide chain providing a binding region derived from a T cell receptor (TCR) being specific for a major histocompatibility complex (MHC)-associated peptide epitope, and a binding region derived from an antibody capable of recruiting human immune effector cells by specifically binding to a surface antigen of said cells, as well as methods of making the bispecific polypeptide molecule, and uses thereof.

The present invention provides an antibody or an antigen-binding fragment thereof with binding specificity for human interleukin-1 receptor accessory protein (IL1RAP) wherein the antibody or antigen-binding fragment is capable of inhibiting the binding of antibody ‘CAN04’ to human ILIRAP. The invention further provides the use of such antibodies or an antigen-binding fragments in the treatment and/or diagnosis of IL-1 associated diseases and conditions, including cancers such as acute myeloid leukemia and melanoma.

The present invention includes antibodies and antigen-binding fragments thereof that specifically bind to human or cynomolgous monkey LAG3 as well as immunoglobulin chains thereof and polynucleotides encoding the same along with injection devices comprising such antibodies or fragments. Vaccines including such antibodies and fragments as well as compositions comprising the antibodies and fragments (e.g., including anti-PD1 antibodies) are included in the invention. Methods for treating or preventing cancer or infection using such compositions are also provided. In addition, methods for recombinant expression of the antibodies and fragments are part of the present invention.
