CONSTRAINED CONDITIONALLY ACTIVATED BINDING PROTEINS
20220273794 · 2022-09-01 ·

The invention relates to COnditional Bispecific Redirected Activation constructs, or COBRAs, that are administered in an active pro-drug format. Upon exposure to tumor proteases, the constructs are cleaved and activated, such that they can bind both tumor target antigens (TTAs) as well as CD3, thus recruiting T cells expressing CD3 to the tumor, resulting in treatment.

Upon exposure to tumor proteases, the constructs are cleaved and activated, such that they can bind both tumor target antigens (TTAs) as well as CD3, thus recruiting T cells expressing CD3 to the tumor, resulting in treatment.

METHODS AND COMPOSITIONS TO TREAT AUTOIMMUNE DISEASES AND CANCER
20220288226 · 2022-09-15 ·

Provided are molecular constructs that target tumor necrosis factor receptor 1 (TNFR1) and/or tumor necrosis factor receptor 2 (TNFR2). The constructs are for treating diseases, disorders, and conditions in which these receptors and/or TNF are involved in the etiology or in which their inhibition or activation thereof can ameliorate the disease, disorder, and condition or a symptom thereof. Among the constructs provided herein, are TNFR1 antagonist constructs that are engineered to inhibit TNFR1 function, and to eliminate any TNFR1 agonist activity. The constructs provided herein include agonists and antagonists of TNFR1 and TNFR2 Included also are agonists and antagonists of TNFR2. Agonists of TNFR2 increase regulatory T-cell function to control acute or chronic inflammation. Antagonists of TNFR2 decrease regulatory T-cell function thus increasing immunity, and are for treating cancer and certain immunodeficiency diseases. Methods of treatment of the various diseases in which TNF and its receptors play a role also are provided. Also provided are growth factor ligand trap constructs, and methods of use thereof for treatment of diseases, disorders, and conditions, including cancer.
