The present disclosure provides antibodies or antibody fragments specific for GPVI. In particular, it relates to antibodies or antibody fragments that have combined beneficial properties and are therefore useful for the treatment or prophylaxis of GPVI related disorders or conditions, such as for example thrombotic or vascular disorders.

Provided herein are methods for treating cancer using molecules having an antigen binding fragment that immunospecifically binds to BTN1A1 or a BTN1A1 ligand, such as anti-BTN1A1 antibodies or anti-BTN1A1 ligand antibodies. Also provided herein are BTN1A1 ligands, such as Galectin-1, Galectin-9, Neuropilin-2, and B- and T-Lymphocyte Attenuator.

Anti-CD3 binding domains and antibodies comprising them, including multispecific antibodies, with, inter alia, desirable T-cell activation and (re)directed target cell killing potency and developability, profiles are provided, as well as methods for their identification, isolation, and generation, and methods for their preparation and use. Reagents for identifying, isolating, selecting, generating and characterizing CD3 binding domains and antibodies comprising them are also provided.

The present invention relates in part to the discovery of genes that are deregulated in cancer stem cells (e.g., melanoma stem cells). In some aspects, methods for treating individuals having melanoma are provided; the methods involve modulating (e.g., inducing, inhibiting, etc.) the activity of the cancer stem cell associated genes. In other aspects, cell surface genes that are upregulated in melanoma stem cells are targeted for the selective isolation, detection, and killing of cancer stem cells in melanoma. Other aspects of the invention relate to reagents, arrays, compositions, and kits that are useful for diagnosing and treating melanoma.

The invention relates generally to polypeptides that include a cleavable moiety that is a substrate for at least one protease selected from matriptase and u-plasminogen activator (uPA), to activatable antibodies and other larger molecules that include the cleavable moiety that is a substrate for at least one protease selected from matriptase and u-plasminogen activator, and to methods of making and using these polypeptides that include a cleavable moiety that is a substrate for at least one protease selected from matriptase and u-plasminogen activator in a variety of therapeutic, diagnostic and prophylactic indications.

The present invention pertains to a novel and advantageous dosage regimen for a humanized pegylated monovalent anti-CD28 Fab′ antibody fragment, called “FR104”. This dosage regimen consists of between 0.05 and 1.5 mg/kg body weight of FR104, at a dosing schedule of once per week, once every two weeks, once every three weeks, once every four weeks, once every five weeks or once every 6 weeks, once every 7 weeks, once every 8 weeks or once every more than 8 weeks.

The present invention generally relates to antibodies that bind to HLA-A2/WT1, including bispecific antigen binding molecules e.g. for activating T cells. In addition, the present invention relates to polynucleotides encoding such antibodies, and vectors and host cells comprising such polynucleotides. The invention further relates to methods for producing the antibodies, and to methods of using them in the treatment of disease.

The invention relates to the fields of immunology, oncology, and more specifically, to antibodies that can be used in the treatment of various cancers, more particularly cancers expressing CD117 antigen. These antibodies or antigen-binding molecules may be monoclonal antibodies or binding fragments thereof, they may be in particular chimeric or humanized. These antibodies may be antagonistic. The invention also relates to anticancerous or pharmaceutical compositions containing an antibody according to this invention and methods of use of these, either for laboratory work or for medical treatment.

Provided are an anti-CLDN18.2 antibody or an antigen-binding fragment thereof, a derivative comprising said antibody or antigen-binding fragment thereof, a pharmaceutical composition, and related use of said antibody or antigen-binding fragment thereof for treating, diagnosing and detecting cancers.

The present disclosure relates generally to compositions and methods useful for the production of engineered antibodies having (i) multiple antigen-binding specificities and (ii) Fc regions that have been modified to promote heterodimer formation between heavy chains from antibodies with different specificities. Also provided are recombinant cells, recombinant nucleic acids encoding such engineered antibodies, as well as pharmaceutical compositions containing same.
