Methods and Antibody Compositions for Tumor Treatment

The present invention provides bispecific antibodies that bind to CD3 and tumor antigens and methods of using the same. According to certain embodiments, the bispecific antibodies of the invention exhibit reduced effector functions and have a unique binding profile with regard to Fcγ receptors. The bispecific antibodies are engineered to efficiently induce T cell-mediated killing of tumor cells. According to certain embodiments, the present invention provides bispecific antigen-binding molecules comprising a first antigen-binding domain that specifically binds human CD3, a second antigen-binding molecule that specifically binds human CD20, and an Fc domain that binds Fcγ receptors with a specific binding pattern. In certain embodiments, the bispecific antigen-binding molecules of the present invention are capable of inhibiting the growth of B-cell or melanoma tumors expressing CD20. The bispecific antibodies of the invention are useful for the treatment of various cancers as well as other CD20-related diseases and disorders.

ANTI-NTB-A ANTIBODIES AND RELATED COMPOSITIONS AND METHODS

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, such as multiple myeloma, non-Hodgkin lymphoma and acute myeloid leukemia.

CLAUDIN-6 TARGETING MULTISPECIFIC ANTIGEN-BINDING MOLECULES AND USES THEREOF
20230220066 · 2023-07-13 ·

The present disclosure provides multispecific antigen-binding molecules capable of binding to CD3 and CD137 (4-1BB) but not binding to CD3 and CD137 at the same time, and capable of binding to CLDN6. The multispecific antigen-binding molecules of the present disclosure exhibit enhanced T-cell dependent cytotoxicity activity in a CLDN6-dependent manner through binding to the CD3/CD37 and CLDN6. The present invention provides multi-specific antigen-binding molecules and pharmaceutical compositions thereof that can be used for targeting cells expressing CLDN6, for use in immunotherapy for treating various cancers, especially those associated with CLDN6 such as CLDN6-positive cancers.

ANTI-TIGIT ANTIBODIES, ANTI-CD96 ANTIBODIES, AND METHODS OF USE THEREOF

The instant disclosure provides multispecific molecules that specifically bind to CD96 (e.g., human CD96) and/or TIGIT (e.g., human TIGIT) and isolated antibodies that specifically bind to TIGIT (e.g., human TIGIT). Also provided are pharmaceutical compositions comprising these multispecific molecules and antibodies, nucleic acids encoding these multispecific molecules and antibodies, expression vectors and host cells for making these multispecific molecules and antibodies, and methods of treating a subject using these multispecific molecules and antibodies.

Chimeric Antigen Receptor (CAR) Comprising A CD19-Binding Domain

There is provided a chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) comprising a CD19-binding domain which comprises a) a heavy chain variable region (VH) having complementarity determining regions (CDRs) with the following sequences: CDR1—GY-AFSSS (SEQ ID No. 1); CDR2—YPGDED (SEQ ID No. 2) CDR3—SLLYGDYLDY (SEQ ID No. 3); and b) a light chain variable region (VL) having CDRs with the following sequences: CDR1—SASSSVSYMH (SEQ ID No. 4); CDR2—DTSKLAS (SEQ ID No. 5) CDR3—QQWNINPLT (SEQ ID No. 6). There is also provided a cell comprising such a CAR, and the use of such a cell in the treatment of cancer, in particular a B cell malignancy.

NOVEL PEPTIDES AND COMBINATION OF PEPTIDES FOR USE IN IMMUNOTHERAPY AND METHODS FOR GENERATING SCAFFOLDS FOR THE USE AGAINST PANCREATIC CANCER AND OTHER CANCERS

The present invention relates to peptides, proteins, nucleic acids and cells for use in immunotherapeutic methods. In particular, the present invention relates to the immunotherapy of cancer. The present invention furthermore relates to tumor-associated T-cell peptide epitopes, alone or in combination with other tumor-associated peptides that can for example serve as active pharmaceutical ingredients of vaccine compositions that stimulate anti-tumor immune responses, or to stimulate T cells ex vivo and transfer into patients. Peptides bound to molecules of the major histocompatibility complex (MHC), or peptides as such, can also be targets of antibodies, soluble T-cell receptors, and other binding molecules.
