The invention relates to antibodies, antibody fragments and binding agents that specifically recognize oligomeric tau but do not bind to monomeric tau, fibrillar tau or non-disease associated forms of tau.

The present disclosure relates to multispecific antibodies targeting the human immunodeficiency virus-1 (HIV-1) envelope, methods for their production, pharmaceutical compositions containing said antibodies and uses thereof in treatment and prevention of HIV infection.

The present invention relates to immune cell-based anti-cancer therapeutics and methods of using the therapeutics in the treatment of cancer.

Provided herein are methods for co-expressing and purifying conditionally activated binding proteins such as hemi-COBRAs.

Multimeric binding molecules that are capable of specifically binding to hemagglutinin (HA) of at least two influenza A virus strains, said strains comprising HA of two different HA subtypes from phylogenetic group 2; or capable of specifically binding to hemagglutinin (HA) of at least one influenza A virus strain from phylogenetic group 1 and at least one influenza A virus strain from phylogenetic group 2; or capable of specifically binding to hemagglutinin (HA) of at least one influenza B virus strain are provided. The binding molecules preferably are also capable of neutralizing at least two influenza A virus strains from phylogenetic group 2; or capable of neutralizing at least one influenza A virus strain from phylogenetic group 1 and at least one influenza A virus strain from phylogenetic group 2; or capable of specifically neutralizing at least one influenza B virus strain.

Methods, compositions and kits are provided for treating a subject exposed to or at risk for exposure to a disease agent using a pharmaceutical composition including at least one recombinant heteromultimeric neutralizing binding protein including two or multiple binding regions, such that the binding regions are not identical, and each binding region specifically binds a non-overlapping portion of the disease agent, thereby treating the subject for exposure to the disease agent. In a related embodiment, the heteromultimeric neutralizing binding protein includes two or multiple binding regions that neutralize a plurality of disease agents. In certain embodiments, the disease agent includes a bacterium, a bacterial protein, a virus, a viral protein, a cancer cell, and a protein or molecule produced therefrom. In certain embodiments, the disease agent is a plurality of different disease agents.

The present invention provides molecules, such as ISVDs and Nanobodies, that bind to PD1 and LAG3 and, optionally to human serum albumin. These molecules have been engineered so as to reduce the incidence of binding by pre-existing antibodies in the bodies of a subject administered such a molecule. Methods for increasing immune response, treating cancer and/or treating an infectious disease with such molecules are provided.

Provided is an isolated TrkB agonist antibody that binds to an epitope contained in one of the extracellular domains of TrkB and is capable of activating TrkB, wherein the extracellular domains comprises extracellular D1, D2, D3, D4, D5 domains and juxtamembrane domain of TrkB. Methods of using the TrkB agonist antibody in treating or reducing the risk of a TrkB associated conditions in a subject, wherein said condition is selected from cell differentiation, synaptic development, neural injury repairing and/or neurite branching.

The present invention pertains to antigen recognizing constructs against tumor associated antigens (TAA), in particular the TAA Serine protease inhibitor Kazal-type 2 (SPINK2). The invention in particular provides novel T cell receptor (TCR) based molecules which are selective and specific for the tumor expressed antigen of the invention. The TCR of the invention, and SPINK2 binding fragments derived therefrom, are of use for the diagnosis, treatment and prevention of SPINK2 expressing cancerous diseases. Further provided are nucleic acids encoding the antigen recognizing constructs of the invention, vectors comprising these nucleic acids, recombinant cells expressing the antigen recognizing constructs and pharmaceutical compositions comprising the compounds of the invention.

Uses of a dual V region antibody-like protein or a fragment of a dual V region antibody-like region.
