Multispecific antibody having a binding site for ICOS and a binding site for a second antigen, e.g., an immune checkpoint molecule such as PD-L1. Use of the multispecific antibody in immuno-oncology, including for treatment of solid tumours.

The present invention relates to a protein binding to GARP in the presence of TGF- and uses thereof.

The invention relates to the purification of bispecific antibodies carrying a different specificity for each binding site of the immunoglobulin molecule from a mixture of monospecific antibodies. The bispecific antibodies are composed of a single heavy chain and two different light chains, one containing a Kappa constant domain and the other a Lambda constant domain. This invention in particular relates to the isolation of these bispecific antibodies from mixtures that contain monospecific antibodies having two Kappa light chains or portions thereof and monospecific antibodies having two Lambda light chains or portions thereof. The invention also provides the methods of efficiently purifying these bispecific antibodies.

The present invention relates to compositions and methods for the inhibition of apoptosis associated with ischemic injury in the central nervous system. In addition, the present invention relates to compositions and methods useful for extending the therapeutic window associated with ischemic injury.

An object of the present invention is to provide a method of enabling efficient structural analysis of a target protein that has been impossible or difficult to analyze so far, by stabilizing the target protein. The present invention provides an anti-BRIL antibody which specifically binds to BRIL or a BRIL fusion protein and an antigen-binding fragment thereof, a nucleic acid encoding the anti-BRIL antibody and the antigen-binding fragment thereof, a vector containing the nucleic acid, an antibody producing cell containing the vector, a method of producing the antibody, and a method of using the antibody in a protein structural analysis.

The present invention provides molecules, such as ISVDs and Nanobodies, that bind to CTLA4 or human serum albumin. These molecules have been engineered so as to reduce the incidence of binding by pre-existing antibodies in the bodies of a subject administered such a molecule. Methods for increasing immune response, treating cancer and/or treating an infectious disease with such molecules are provided.

Described herein are antagonists of CD5L monomer, CD5L:CD5L homodimer, and CD5L:p40 heterodimer and compositions and methods for modulating or enhancing an immune response in a subject, e.g. a subject with cancer or chronic infection, involving said antagonists.

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.

The present disclosure provides antibody sequences found in antibodies that bind to human CD25, in particular an anti CD25-a-674 antibody which do not block the binding of CD25 to IL-2 or IL-2 signalling. The claimed antibody binds to the epitopes: YQCVQGYRALHRGP (150 to 163) or SVCKMTHGKTRWTQP (166 to 180) on CD25 Antibodies and antigen-binding portions thereof including such sequences can be used in pharmaceutical compositions and methods of treatment, in particular for treating cancer.

The present invention relates to an isolated T cell receptor (TCR) specific for NY-ESO-1/LAGE-1 and a polypeptide comprising a functional portion of the TCR. Further implicated are a multivalent TCR complex, a nucleic acid encoding a TCR, a cell expressing the TCR and a pharmaceutical composition comprising the TCR. The invention also refers to the TCR for use as a medicament, in particular to the TCR for use in the treatment of cancer.
