The present invention provides glycan-interacting antibodies and methods for producing glycan-interacting antibodies useful in the treatment and prevention of human disease, including cancer. Such glycan-interacting antibodies include monoclonal antibodies, derivatives, and fragments thereof as well as compositions and kits comprising them. Further provided are methods of using glycan-interacting antibodies to target cells and treat disease.

Provided herein are novel anti-CD28×anti-B7H3 (also referred to as “αCD28×αB7H3”) heterodimeric bispecific antibodies and methods of using such antibodies for the treatment of cancers. Subject αCD28×αB7H3 antibodies are capable of agonistically binding to CD28 costimulatory molecules on T cells and targeting to B7H3 on tumor cells. Thus, such antibodies selectively enhance anti-tumor activity at tumor sites while minimizing peripheral toxicity. The subject antibodies provided herein are particularly useful for enhancing anti-tumor activity when used in combination with other anti-cancer therapies.

Provided herein are antibodies, or antigen-binding portions thereof, that bind to T-cell immunoglobulin and mucin-domain containing-3 (TIM3) protein. Also provided are uses of these antibodies, or antigen-binding portions thereof, in therapeutic applications, such as treatment of cancer. Further provided are cells that produce the antibodies, or antigen-binding portions thereof, polynucleotides encoding the heavy and/or light chain regions of the antibodies, or antigen-binding portions thereof, and vectors comprising the polynucleotides encoding the heavy and/or light chain regions of the antibodies, or antigen-binding portions thereof.

In certain aspects, the present disclosure relates to the insight that a polypeptide comprising a truncated, ligand-binding portion of the extracellular domain of endoglin (ENG) polypeptide may be used to treat fibrotic disorders.

The present invention relates to a bispecific antibody construct comprising a first binding domain which binds to human DLL3 on the surface of a target cell and a second binding domain which binds to human CD3 on the surface of a T cell. Moreover, the invention provides a polynucleotide encoding the antibody construct, a vector comprising the polynucleotide and a host cell transformed or transfected with the polynucleotide or vector. Furthermore, the invention provides a process for the production of the antibody construct of the invention, a medical use of the antibody construct and a kit comprising the antibody construct.

The present disclosure provides antibodies and antigen-binding fragments capable of binding PAR2. In some embodiments, the anti-PAR2 antibodies or antigen-binding fragments thereof bind PAR2 in a pH-dependent manner. The disclosure further provides methods for making and using the antibodies and antigen-binding fragments.

Monoclonal antibodies that specifically bind the F1 antigen of Yersinia pestis with high affinity are described. Use of the monoclonal antibodies for the detection of Y. pestis infection and the diagnosis of plague are also described. Immunoconjugates of the monoclonal antibodies and a radionuclide can also be used for the treatment of a Y. pestis infection.

Provided are novel human tau-specific antibodies as well as fragments, derivatives and variants thereof as well as methods related thereto. Assays, kits, and solid supports related to antibodies specific for tau are also disclosed. The antibody, immunoglobulin chain(s), as well as binding fragments, derivatives and variants thereof can be used in pharmaceutical and diagnostic compositions for tau targeted immunotherapy and diagnosis, respectively.

Plasma kallikrein binding proteins and methods of using such proteins are described.

The current invention involves a series of fully recombinant multimerized forms of immunoglobulin Fc which thereby present polyvalent immunoglobulin Fc to immune cell receptors. The fusion proteins exist as both homodimeric and highly ordered multimeric fractions, termed stradomers. In comparison to the homodimeric fraction, purified multimeric stradomers have higher affinity and avidity for FcγRs with slower dissociation and are useful in the treatment and prevention of disease. The current invention demonstrates that directly linking IgG1 Fc regions to multimerization domains leads to enhanced multimerization and biological activity.
