Disclosed herein are low immunogenic human anti-TNF-α antibodies which can inhibit the apopotosis of cells induced by TNF-α. The invented low immunogenic human anti-TNF-α antibodies are capable of binding to TNF-α specifically. The invention presents the human anti-TNF-α antibodies which bind to TNF-α with similar affinities as Adalimumab. Most importantly, the invented human anti-TNF-α antibodies showed reduced immunogenicities in vivo, which made them safer candidate for antibody drug and other biotherapy. The invention also features method of de-immunogenicity of antibody drugs by identification, replacement of high immunogenic FR sequence(s) of the human antibody with low immunogenic FR sequences from other human IgGs, and significantly reduce the risk of human anti-human immunogenicity and improve the efficacy of antibody drugs.

The present invention relates to antibodies binding to 5T4, including bispecific antibodies binding to 5T4 and CD3. The invention further provides pharmaceutical compositions comprising the antibodies and use of the antibodies for therapeutic and diagnostic procedures, in particular in cancer therapy.

A bispecific epitope binding protein having a multimer of four single-chain chimeric polypeptides of two single-chain chimeric heavy chains and two single-chain chimeric light chains. The bispecific epitope binding protein has a first antigen binding domain that binds specifically to HER2 and a second antigen binding domain that binds specifically to 4-1BB.

The present application relates to humanized antibodies that specifically bind to hepcidin and methods of using the humanized antibodies. Another aspect relates to humanized antibodies which bind hepcidin and regulate iron homeostasis. Another aspect relates to the use of humanized antibodies which bind hepcidin for the treatment of a disease or condition associated with hepcidin.

There is disclosed a chimeric infliximab-like monoclonal antibody having at least 80% NANA glycosylation terminal sialic acid and a glycosylation pattern of Gal-α(2,3/6)-Gal that binds to tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF). The disclosed infliximab-like monoclonal antibody is a chimeric antibody having the same amino acid sequence (light chain/heavy chain of SEQ ID NO. 1/SEQ ID NO. 2) as infliximab (Remicade®) which has at least 80% NGNA terminal sialic acid and a glycosylation pattern of Gal-α(1,3)-Gal.

The present invention relates to new humanized antagonistic anti-CD40 antibodies and therapeutic and diagnostic methods and compositions for using the same.

The invention provides non-human cells and mammals having a genome encoding chimeric antibodies and methods of producing transgenic cells and mammals. Certain aspects of the invention include chimeric antibodies, humanized antibodies, pharmaceutical compositions and kits. Certain aspects of the invention also relate to diagnostic and treatment methods using the antibodies of the invention.

The present invention relates to novel antibodies and fragments that bind to a V-domain Ig Suppressor of T cell Activation (VISTA), and methods of making and using same. Methods of use include methods of treatment of cancer, including leukemias, lymphomas, solid tumors and melanomas.

Endogenous LINGO-1 is a negative regulator for neuronal survival, axon regeneration, oligodendrocyte differentiation and myelination. Molecules that block endogenous LINGO-1 function, such anti-LINGO-1 antibodies can be used as therapeutics for the treatment of neuron and oligodendrocyte dysfunction. The present invention provides antibodies specific for LINGO-1, and methods of using such antibodies as antagonists of endogenous LINGO-1 function. The invention further provides specific hybridoma and phage library-derived monoclonal antibodies, nucleic acids encoding these antibodies, and vectors and host cells comprising these antibodies. The invention further provides methods of promoting oligodendrocyte survival and myelination in a vertebrate, comprising administering to a vertebrate in need of such treatment an effective amount of an anti-LINGO-1 antibody.

Compositions and methods are described for stabilizing a radio-iodinated monoclonal IgG antibody for up to 17 days against radiolytic decomposition. The stabilized radiolabeled murine antibody binding the CD45 antigen expressed on various forms of lymphomas is useful as a radio-therapeutic and diagnostic agent in the treatment of human malignancies of hematopoietic origin, including lymphomas.
