11299740 · 2022-04-12 ·

Disclosed are artificial chemical entities, pharmaceutical compositions comprising such chemical entities and methods using the chemical entities. In some embodiments, the artificial chemical entity comprises a biomarker-bonding portion that selectively binds to a specified biomarker and an immune-response trigger that under in vivo conditions leads to positioning of an antibody Fc region in proximity of the biomarker to which the biomarker-bonding portion is bound.

RECOMBINANT PEPTIDE-MHC COMPLEX BINDING PROTEINS AND THEIR GENERATION AND USE

The present invention relates to a method of producing recombinant binding proteins with binding specificity for a peptide-MHC (pMHC) complex. The invention also relates to recombinant binding proteins comprising one, two or more designed repeat domain(s), preferably designed ankyrin repeat domain(s), with binding specificity for a pMHC complex, and to such binding proteins which further comprise a binding agent having binding specificity for a protein expressed on the surface of an immune cell, preferably a T-cell. In addition, the invention relates to nucleic acids encoding such binding proteins or repeat domains, pharmaceutical compositions comprising such binding proteins or nucleic acids, and the use of such binding proteins, nucleic acids or pharmaceutical compositions in methods for treating or diagnosing diseases, including cancer, infectious diseases and autoimmune diseases.

Anti-SIRPA antibodies and methods of use thereof

The present disclosure is generally directed to compositions that include antibodies, e.g., monoclonal, antibodies, antibody fragments, etc., that specifically bind a SIRPA polypeptide, e.g., a mammalian SIRPA or human SIRPA, and use of such compositions in preventing, reducing risk, or treating an individual in need thereof.

Compositions and Methods for Targeting Mutant RAS

This invention relates to compositions and methods of treating cancer associated with mutant RAS. In certain aspects, the invention relates to antigenic RAS peptide fragments and T-cell receptors that bind to specific mutant RAS peptide fragments in the context of specific HLA types.

MONOCLONAL ANTIBODIES AGAINST MHC-BOUND HUMAN DICKKOPF-1 PEPTIDES AND USES THEREOF

Provided herein are methods and reagents for treating cancer. Methods of treating cancer are provided, comprising administering to a patient in need thereof an effective amount of a DKK1 peptide-loaded MHC antibody provided herein. The methods can further include administering an effective amount of chemotherapy or immunotherapy to said patient.

Anti-NPR1 antibodies and uses thereof

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.

ANTI-HLA-DQ2.5 ANTIBODY AND ITS USE FOR THE TREATMENT OF CELIAC DISEASE

The present invention relates to anti-HLA-DQ2.5 antibodies and its use for the treatment of celiac disease.

The present invention provides anti-HLA-DQ2.5 antibodies that have been modified. The anti-HLA-DQ2.5 antibodies of the invention have binding activity to complexes formed by HLA-DQ2.5 and a gluten peptide, but have substantially no binding activity to complexes formed by HLA-DQ2.5 and an irrelevant peptide. Furthermore, the antibodies of the invention are shown to have inhibitory effects on T cell activation by gluten peptides.

ANTIBODY COMPOSITIONS TARGETING NON-PHOSPHORYLATED ALPHA-SYNUCLEIN AGGREGATES
20220089708 · 2022-03-24 ·

The present specification provides a monoclonal antibody that specifically binds aggregated, non-phosphorylated α-synuclein and a hybridoma producing it. Also disclosed are methods of generating antibodies that specifically binds aggregated, non-phosphorylated α-synuclein and uses thereof. Uses of anti-α-synuclein antibody in detection and diagnostic assays, and for prophylaxis or therapy of α-synuclein-associated neurodegenerative diseases, are also disclosed.

CL and/or CH1 mutated antibodies for drug conjugation

Antibodies having modified constant regions so as to permit conjugation of the antibody to a payload such as a therapeutic agent are described. Preferred antibodies include a mutation at light chain position 180 (positional numbering), most preferably the mutation is to a residue selected from C, K, Q, or a non-natural amino acid. Additional mutations may also be combined with a mutation at position 180; including one or more of light chain (LC) S208, LC S171, LC S182, LC A184, LC V191, LC S202, LC S203, LC T206, heavy chain (HC) S160, HC T190, HC S443, HC S447, HC S139, HC S168, HC V170, HC V176, HC T200, HC S445 according to a positional numbering convention.

A*03 restricted peptides for use in immunotherapy against cancers and related methods

The present invention relates to peptides, proteins, nucleic acids and cells for use in immunotherapeutic methods. In particular, the present invention relates to the immunotherapy of cancer. The present invention furthermore relates to tumor-associated T-cell peptide epitopes, alone or in combination with other tumor-associated peptides that can for example serve as active pharmaceutical ingredients of vaccine compositions that stimulate anti-tumor immune responses, or to stimulate T cells ex vivo and transfer into patients. Peptides bound to molecules of the major histocompatibility complex (MHC), or peptides as such, can also be targets of antibodies, soluble T-cell receptors, and other binding molecules.
