ANTI-B7-H3 ANTIBODIES AND ANTIBODY DRUG CONJUGATES
The invention relates to B7 homology 3 protein (B7-H3) antibodies and antibody drug conjugates (ADCs), including compositions and methods of using said antibodies and ADCs.
PD-L1 Specific Monoclonal Antibodies for Disease Treatment and Diagnosis
The present invention relates to compositions and methods for immunotherapy of a subject afflicted with diseases such as cancer, an infectious disease, or a neurodegenerative disease, which methods comprise administering to the subject a composition comprising a therapeutically effective amount of an anti-PD-L1 antibody or portion thereof that potentiates an endogenous immune response, either stimulating the activation of the endogenous response or inhibiting the suppression of the endogenous response.
Dock-and-lock (DNL) constructs for human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) therapy
The present invention concerns methods and compositions for treatment of HIV infection in a subject, utilizing a DNL® complex comprising at least one anti-HIV therapeutic agent, attached to an antibody, antibody fragment or PEG. In a preferred embodiment, the antibody or fragment binds to an antigen selected from gp120, gp41, CD4 and CCR5. In a more preferred embodiment the antibody is P4/D10 or 2G12, although other anti-HIV antibodies are known and may be utilized. In a most preferred embodiment, the anti-HIV therapeutic agent is a fusion inhibitor, such as T20, T61, T651, T1249, T2635, CP32M or T-1444, although other anti-HIV therapeutic agents are known and may be utilized. The DNL® complex may be administered alone or may be co-administered with one or more additional anti-HIV therapeutic agents.
Anti-ErbB3 antibodies
Monoclonal antibodies that bind and inhibit activation of epidermal growth factor receptor related member ErbB3/HER3 are disclosed. The antibodies can be used to treat cell proliferative diseases and disorders, including certain forms of cancer, associated with activation of ErbB3/HER3.
Anti-IL-25 antibodies and uses thereof
The present invention provides antibodies that bind to human interleukin-25 (IL-25) and methods of using the same. According to certain embodiments, the antibodies of the invention bind human IL-25 with high affinity. In certain embodiments, the invention includes antibodies that bind human IL-25 and block IL-25-mediated cell signaling. The antibodies of the invention may be fully human, non-naturally occurring antibodies. The antibodies of the invention are useful for the treatment of various disorders associated with IL-25 activity or expression, including asthma, allergy, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), including ulcerative colitis and Crohn's disease, atopic dermatitis (AD), and Eosinophilic Granulomatosis with Polyangiitis (EGPA), also know as Churg-Strauss Syndrome.
METHODS FOR TREATING SPINAL CORD INJURY AND PAIN
Disclosed herein are anti-RGMa antibodies and methods of using these antibodies to treat spinal cord injury, including promoting axonal regeneration, functional recovery, or both and to treat pain, including neuropathic pain arising from spinal cord injury.
TRANSFERRIN RECEPTOR (TFR)-SELECTIVE BINDING PEPTIDES CAPABLE OF CROSSING THE BLOOD BRAIN BARRIER AND METHODS OF USE THEREOF
The present invention relates to the fields of molecular medicine and targeted delivery of therapeutic or diagnostic agents to cells outside the vascular system and into the parenchymal tissue of organs within the body. More specifically, the present invention relates to improved TfR-binding moieties based on shark VNARs capable of crossing the blood brain barrier (BBB) and capable of carrying and releasing cargo specifically targeted to the parenchymal tissue of the brain.
BISPECIFIC ANTIBODY TARGETING TRANSFERRIN RECEPTOR 1 AND SOLUBLE ANTIGEN
The invention relates to a bispecific antibody targeting TfR1 and a soluble antigen. The inventors demonstrate that the unique mode of interaction of the bispecific antibody with TfR1 increases its persistence in vivo through an FcRn-like mechanism. It has been demonstrated on MCF7 cell line that the bispecific antibody induces soluble antigen (IL6) uptake through TfR1 mediated endocytosis. Effects of the bispecific antibody on XG6 cell lines viability have been demonstrated, notably on iron and IL-6 deprivation. Hence, the inventors design an improved sweeping antibody which can specifically target tumors and inflammatory cells expressing TfR1. By its unique mode of interaction with TfR1, its ability to induce soluble uptake antigen through TfR1 mediated endocytosis and its capacity to deprive cells of iron, known for being required in tumors growth and progression and development of inflammatory pathologies, the bispecific antibody can be used in the treatment of cancer and inflammatory pathologies.
ANTI-TIGIT ANTIBODY AND PREPARATION METHOD AND APPLICATION THEREOF
Provided is a separated antigen-binding protein. The antigen-binding protein comprises at least one CDR in a heavy chain variable region VH, and the VH comprises an amino acid sequence shown in SEQ ID NO: 55. Also provided are an anti-TIGIT antibody, and a preparation method and an application thereof. The antigen-binding protein can specifically bind with a TIGIT antigen to block the binding of TIGIT and a ligand thereof, and can be used for preparing drugs for preventing or treating TIGIT-related diseases.
METHOD FOR IMPROVING AFFINITY OF ANTIBODY FOR ANTIGEN AND USE THEREOF
Disclosed is a method for improving affinity of an antibody for an antigen, comprising, in an unmodified antibody, improving affinity for an antigen as compared to the unmodified antibody, by changing 5th, 9th and 22nd amino acid residues of a light chain defined by Kabat method to charged amino acid residues.
