The present invention provides antibodies and related molecules that bind to chemokine receptor 4 (CXCR4). The invention further provides antibody-drug conjugates comprising such antibodies, antibody encoding nucleic acids, and methods of obtaining such antibodies. The invention further relates to therapeutic methods for use of these antibodies and anti-CXCR4 antibody-drug conjugates for the treatment of a disorder associated with CXCR4 function or expression (e.g., cancer), such as colon, RCC, esophageal, gastric, head and neck, lung, ovarian, pancreatic cancer or hematological cancers.

Provided herein are antigen-binding protein constructs and uses of the same.

Isolated binding proteins, e.g., antibodies or antigen binding portions thereof, which bind to tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α), e.g., human TNF-α, and related antibody-based compositions and molecules are disclosed. Also disclosed are pharmaceutical compositions comprising the antibodies, as well as therapeutic and diagnostic methods for using the antibodies.

The present invention provides anti-PTK7 antibody-drug conjugates and methods for preparing and using the same.

Disclosed herein are materials and methods for the treatment of stress-related disorders and cancer. The disclosure provides an antibody, or antigen binding fragment thereof, that specifically binds to a region of corticotropin-releasing hormone (CRH). The disclosure also provides methods of treating a disorder associated with HPA axis activation, such as a stress-related disorder or cancer, comprising administering to a subject in need thereof an antibody or antigen binding fragment thereof described herein in an amount effective to treat the disorder.

Described are molecules specifically binding to human islet amyloid polypeptide (hIAPP) also known as amylin, particularly human-derived antibodies as well as fragments, derivatives and variants thereof for antagonizing islet amyloid polypeptide (IAPP) induced β-cell damage and impaired glucose tolerance which are symptoms typically associated with diabetes mellitus type 2 (T2D).

The invention relates to anti-epidermal growth factor (EGFR) antibodies and antibody drug conjugates (ADCs), including compositions and methods of using said antibodies and ADCs.

Provided herein are pro-VP antagonists, such as antibodies and antigen-binding portions thereof specific for pro-VP, for identifying and targeting expressing cancer cells. Applicants additionally provide methods of using said compositions, for example to image cancer cells in vivo and in biological samples. The compositions may also be used for treating patients suffering from a provasopressin-expressing cancer. Provasopressin-expressing cancers include neuroendocrine cancer, pancreatic cancer, and prostate cancer.

The present invention provides a nanoparticle including at least one poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) having a molecular weight of from about 10 kDa to about 200 kDa, substituted with one or more moieties selected from: a therapeutic agent having a boronic acid moiety, wherein the therapeutic agent is covalently linked to the PVA via a boronate ester bond; a crosslinking group having a disulfide moiety, wherein the crosslinking group is covalently linked to the PVA, and a porphyrin, wherein the porphyrin is covalently linked to the PVA. Use of the nanoparticles for tumor detection and the treatment of diseases, including methods for photodynamic therapy and photothermal therapy, are also described.
