Anti-TIGIT antibodies and antigen binding fragments thereof that inhibit TIGIT-mediated signalling are provided, together with combinations comprising said antibodies or antigen binding fragments thereof and methods for their use.

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.

The present invention is directed to antibodies and fragments thereof and humanized versions thereof having binding specificity for IL-6. Another embodiment of this invention relates to the antibodies described herein, and binding fragments thereof, comprising the sequences of the V.sub.H, V.sub.L and CDR polypeptides described herein, and the polynucleotides encoding them. The invention also contemplates conjugates of anti-IL-6 antibodies and binding fragments thereof conjugated to one or more functional or detectable moieties. The invention also contemplates methods of making said anti-IL-6 antibodies and binding fragments thereof. Embodiments of the invention also pertain to the use of anti-IL-6 antibodies, and binding fragments thereof, for the diagnosis, assessment and treatment of diseases and disorders associated with IL-6. These antibodies may bind at least one of soluble IL-6, cell surface expressed IL-6, IL-6/IL-6R and/or prevent the association of IL-6 and IL-6R, the association of IL-6/IL-6R and gp130 and or the formation of IL-6/IL-6R/gp130 multimers and thereby inhibit a biological effect associated with any of the foregoing.

The present application describes an antibody-coding, non-modified or modified RNA and the use thereof for expression of this antibody, for the preparation of a pharmaceutical composition, in particular a passive vaccine, for treatment of tumours and cancer diseases, cardiovascular diseases, infectious diseases, autoimmune diseases, virus diseases and monogenetic diseases, e.g. also in gene therapy. The present invention furthermore describes an in vitro transcription method, in vitro methods for expression of this antibody using the RNA according to the invention and an in vivo method.

Antibody for human amyloid beta. Antibody selectively binds human amyloid beta 42 peptide over human amyloid beta 40 peptide. Antibodies specific for amyloid beta 42 as therapeutic agents for binding amyloid beta 42 peptide and treating conditions associated with amyloidosis, such as Alzheimer's disease.

The present invention relates to fully human antibodies and conjugates thereof, which specifically bind to the extracellular domain of receptor tyrosine kinase-like orphan receptor 2 (ROR2).

The present disclosure provides compositions and methods for extended release of certain types of antibodies in vivo. It was discovered that such antibodies are able to initiate reversible gelation of hyaluronic acid (HA) by creating a depot that dissociates over time to release the antibody without any impact on its physical and chemical properties as well as its biological activity. As certain tissues and organs, such as eyes, joints and skins, contain HA, local injection of the antibodies to these tissues or organs will result in embedding of the antibody in gel formed from the HA, which becomes a repository of slow-released antibodies. In addition, slow-released formulations can be prepared with antibodies mixed with HA, optionally with other polymers.

Peptides and uses thereof, such as a common light chain in an antibody, are provided.

The present invention provides compositions and methods relating to antigen binding proteins against CCR7, including antibodies, nucleic acids, vectors, methods of making the antigen binding proteins, and methods of using the antigen binding proteins.

The present invention relates to multispecific antibodies, for example bispecific antibodies, and methods for the isolation or purification of the same. The antibodies of the invention comprise first and second heavy chain-light chain pairings wherein each pairing comprises a distinct selective recognition site including one or more amino acid residues contributed from the heavy chain and the light chain of the pairing. The first and second selective recognition sites differ by at least one amino acid residue and can be differentially bound by first and second selective recognition agents according to the methods of the invention. Such methods facilitate the production of antibody preparations enriched for multispecific antibodies having the correct functional heavy chain-light chain pairings.
