The disclosure relates to methods for treating cancers (e.g., cancers having a BRCA1 and/or BRCA2 mutation(s)) by administering to the subject an effective amount of a ubiquitin-specific protease 1 (USP1) inhibitor.

Compositions and methods of making isolated binding molecules (e.g. an antibodies) or antigen-binding fragment thereof useful as therapeutics for treating and/or preventing diseases associated with cells expressing claudin18.2, including tumor-related diseases such as gastric cancer, esophageal cancer, pancreatic cancer, lung cancer, ovarian cancer, colon cancer, hepatic cancer, head-neck cancer, and cancer of the gallbladder are described. Also, described are pharmaceutical formulations comprising the described compositions for the treatment of diseases either as single agent (e.g., naked antibodies) or as adjuvant therapy with other antigen-binding anticancer agents such as immune checkpoint inhibitors (e.g., anti-CTLA-4 and anti-PD-1/PD-L1 monoclonal antibodies), and/or by combination therapies where the anti-claudin18.2 antibodies are administered before, after, or concurrently with chemotherapy.

This invention concerns anti-inflammatory agents, compositions, and methods for treating inflammatory disorders.

The application provides a method of identifying or monitoring a plasma cell associated disease, comprising purifying immunoglobulin free light chains (FLCs) from a sample from a subject with anti-FLC specific antibodies or fragments thereof and subjecting the purified sample to a mass spectrometry technique to identify the presence of one or more peaks corresponding to one or more monoclonal FLCs in the sample.

The present invention relates to a bispecific antibody, which is a tetravalent symmetrical bispecific antibody with a structure of F(ab).sub.2-(Fv).sub.2-Fc and comprises two identical fusion heavy chains and two identical fusion light chains.

A method of treating a T-cell mediated disease in a subject by administering to the subject a therapeutically effective amount of an antibody or fragment thereof that specifically binds to CD6 is described. Humanized antibodies useful for the method are also described.

The present disclosure relates generally to immunoglobulin-related compositions (e.g., antibodies or antigen binding fragments thereof) that can bind to and neutralize the activity of L1-CAM protein. The antibodies of the present technology are useful in methods for detecting and treating a L1-CAM-positive cancer in a subject in need thereof.

The present invention is based, in part, on the discovery of monoclonal antibodies, and antigen-binding fragments thereof, that specifically bind to MICA/B α3 domain, as well as immunoglobulins, polypeptides, nucleic acids thereof, and methods of using such antibodies for diagnostic, prognostic, and therapeutic purposes.

Provided is an antibody or antigen binding fragment, capable of recognizing an antigen peptide comprising SEQ ID NO: 7 (KNKKIYDGG); or recognizing an epitope comprising SEQ ID NO: 7 in Claudin 18.2; preferably recognizing a peptide comprising SEQ ID NO: 6 (KNKKIYDGGART); or recognizing an epitope comprising the SEQ ID NO: 6 in the Claudin 18.2.

Antibodies which bind selectively to cardiac conduction system (CCS) cells, imaging and/or diagnostic reagents and compositions visualizing the CCS cells and therapeutic products and compositions comprising one or more of the antibodies. Methods for delivering therapeutic agents to the CCS cells. The disclosure further provides methods for visualizing the CCS cells in vivo in real time, including in a subject undergoing a cardiothoracic surgery or other cardiac intervention. Compositions and methods for isolation, purification, analyses and/or transplantation of the CCS cells, including pluripotent stem cell (hiPSC)-derived or human embryonic stem cell (hESC)-derived CCS cells.
