The present disclosure relates to a pair of flanking sequences for a split intein, wherein the pair of flanking sequences includes: a flanking sequence a and a flanking sequence b; the flanking sequence a is located at the N-terminus of the split intein N-terminal protein splicing region (In), and is between the N-terminal extein (En) and the In; the flanking sequence b is located at the C-terminus of the split intein C-terminal protein splicing region (Ic), and is between the Ic and the C-terminal extein (Ec); and the split intein is selected from the group consisting of SspDnaE, SspDnaB, MxeGyrA, MjaTFIIB, PhoVMA, TVoVMA, Gp41-1, Gp41-8, IMPDH-1 and PhoRadA.

The present invention generally relates to novel bispecific antigen binding molecules for T cell activation and re-direction to specific target cells. In addition, the present invention relates to polynucleotides encoding such bispecific antigen binding molecules, and vectors and host cells comprising such polynucleotides. The invention further relates to methods for producing the bispecific antigen binding molecules of the invention, and to methods of using these bispecific antigen binding molecules in the treatment of disease.

The present invention relates to single-domain antibodies that specifically bind aminopeptidase N (APN), and more in particular to polypeptides, and nucleic acids encoding such polypeptides; to methods for preparing such polypeptides; to compositions and in particular to pharmaceutical compositions that comprise such polypeptides, for prophylactic, therapeutic or diagnostic purposes. In particular, the single-domain antibodies of the present invention are capable of targeting a moiety to a mucosal surface.

Disclosed are antibodies, including antibody drug conjugates, that specifically bind to NTB-A. Also disclosed are methods for using the anti-NTB-A antibodies to detect or modulate activity of (e.g., inhibit proliferation of) an NTB-A-expressing cell, as well as for diagnoses or treatment of diseases or disorders (e.g., cancer) associated with NTB-A-expressing cells. Further disclosed is a method of treating multiple myeloma using an anti-NTB-A antibody drug conjugate, which optionally includes an anti-NTB-A antibody as disclosed herein.

Described herein are methods to affect binding by a multivalent binding molecule to a FZD receptor and a Wnt co-receptor on a cell wherein binding by the multivalent binding molecule to both FZD receptor and co-receptor on the cell activates a Wnt signaling pathway. Also described herein are multivalent binding molecules comprising a FZD receptor binding domain and a Wnt co-receptor biding domain on either end of an Fc domain that activate a Wnt signaling pathway and methods for their use.

The present invention provides a novel antibody format that does not use hetero-association technology and that is theoretically free of by-products having immune activity. This multispecific antibody has a Fab region that includes one polypeptide a chain and two polypeptide b chains. The polypeptide a chain includes a polypeptide in which a variable region Va1, a stationary region Ca1, a peptide linker LL, a variable region Va2 and a stationary region Ca are linked in the stated order. The polypeptide b chain includes a polypeptide in which a variable region Vb is linked to a stationary region Cb, which is linked to the stationary region Ca1 or the stationary region Ca2.

The present disclosure provides an analysis method for measuring the content of light chain-exchanged molecules in a composition containing a multi-specific antigen-binding molecule. The analysis method of the present disclosure includes the steps of: treating a composition comprising a multi-specific antigen-binding molecule and preparing a plurality of types of F(ab) fragments; and measuring the F(ab) fragments by a separation method based on electric charge or hydrophobic interactions and determining the content (content ratio) of each fragment.

The invention relates to bispecific antigen binding molecules comprising (a) at least one moiety capable of specific binding to OX40, and (b) at least one moiety capable of specific binding to epithelial cell adhesion molecule (EpCAM), and to methods of producing these molecules and to methods of using the same.

Provided are an anti-CD73-anti-PD-1 bispecific antibody, a pharmaceutical composition thereof and a use thereof.

Provided herein are bispecific antibodies that bind to B7H3 and NKG2D (e.g., antibodies having Fab-scFv-Fc, Fab.sub.2-scFv-Fc, mAb-scFv and stackFab.sub.2-scFv-Fc formats) or antigen binding fragments thereof. Also provided herein are polynucleotide sequences encoding a chain and/or a CDR of a bispecific antibody of the disclosure; and vectors and cells comprising such polynucleotide sequences. Also provided herein are methods of treating cancer in a subject with a bispecific antibody of the disclosure.
