The present invention is directed to bi-specific monovalent diabodies that comprise an immunoglobulin Fc Domain (“bi-specific monovalent Fc diabodies”) and are composed of three polypeptide chains and which possess at least one binding site specific for an epitope of CD32B and one binding site specific for an epitope of CD79b (i.e., a “CD32B×CD79b bi-specific monovalent Fc diabody”). The bi-specific monovalent Fc diabodies of the present invention are capable of simultaneous binding to CD32B and CD79b. The invention is directed to such compositions, to pharmaceutical compositions that contain such bi-specific monovalent Fc diabodies and to methods for their use in the treatment of inflammatory diseases or conditions, and in particular, systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and graft vs. host disease.

The present disclosure provides novel anti-CD40 antibodies, compositions including the new antibodies, nucleic acids encoding the antibodies, and methods of making and using the same.

Provided herein are methods of treating an aging-related disease or condition in a subject in need thereof, killing or reducing the number of senescent cells in a subject in need thereof, improving the texture and/or appearance of skin and/or hair in a subject in need thereof, and assisting in the treatment of obesity in a subject in need thereof, that include administering to the subject a therapeutically effective amount of one or more natural killer (NK) cell activating agent(s) and/or a therapeutically effective number of activated NK cells.

Disclosed herein are antibodies and ILT5-binding fragments thereof that specifically bind to ILT5, e.g., human ILT5 (hILT5), and pharmaceutical compositions comprising such ILT5-binding antibodies and ILT5-binding fragments thereof.

An anti-Ang2 antibody or an antigen-binding fragment thereof that specifically binds to an angiogenesis-inducing factor Angiopoietin-2 (Ang2) and complexes with a Tie2 receptor and Ang2, and related methods and compositions.

The present application relates to antibodies specifically binding to immunoglobulin-like transcript 4 (ILT4), which is also known as LILRB2, LIR2, MIR10, and CD85d, and corresponding nucleic acids, host cells, compositions, and uses. In some embodiments, the antibodies bind specifically to human ILT4, but do not significantly bind to ILT2, ILT3, or ILT5, or to other members of the LILRA or LILRB families.

Described are agonistic TNFR2 polypeptides, such as antibodies and antigen-binding fragments thereof, and the use of these polypeptides to stimulate the proliferation of regulatory T cells (Treg cells) and/or myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs), as well as to inhibit the function of, reduce the proliferation of, and/or directly kill, T effector cells, such as CD8+ T effector cells. The polypeptides, such as antibodies and antigen-binding fragments thereof, of the disclosure can be used, for example, to suppress autoimmunity and inflammation, as well as to promote the protection, healing, preservation, and/or regeneration of a wide variety of tissues and organs, such as tissues and organs containing TNFR2+ cells.

The present disclosure provides antibodies that specifically bind to human OX40 receptor (OX40) and compositions comprising such antibodies. In a specific aspect, the antibodies specifically bind to human OX40 and modulate OX40 activity, e.g., enhance, activate, or induce OX40 activity, or reduce, deactivate, or inhibit OX40 activity. The present disclosure also provides methods for treating disorders, such as cancer, by administering an antibody that specifically binds to human OX40 and modulates OX40 activity, e.g., enhances, activates, or induces OX40 activity. Also provided are methods for treating autoimmune or inflammatory diseases or disorders, by administering an antibody that specifically binds to human OX40 and modulates OX40 activity, e.g., reduces, deactivates, or inhibits OX40 activity.

The present invention is based, in part, on the identification of novel human anti-PD-1, PD-L1, and PD-L2 antibodies. Accordingly, the invention relates to compositions and methods for diagnosing, prognosing, and treating conditions that would benefit from modulating PD-1, PD-L1, and/or PD-L2 activity (e.g., persistent infections diseases, autoimmune diseases, asthma, transplant rejection, inflammatory disorders and tumors) using the novel human anti-PD-1, PD-L1, and PD-L2 antibodies described herein.

The present invention relates, in part, to agents that bind Clec9A and their use as diagnostic and therapeutic agents. The present invention further relates to pharmaceutical compositions comprising the Clec9A binding agents and their use in the treatment of various diseases.
