This invention provides fully human monoclonal antibodies that recognize HER2. The invention further provides methods of using such monoclonal antibodies in a variety of therapeutic, diagnostic, and prophylactic indications.

The present invention provides a multi-drug-loading site and high drug-loading capacity ligand-drug conjugate. The ligand-drug conjugate has a structure of general formula (I). The ligand-drug conjugate has the characteristics of high loading capacity, high drug efficacy, low toxicity, and low risks. The ligand-drug conjugate can be used particularly to connect to a low toxicity chemical molecule, thereby extending a therapeutic window. Furthermore, the present invention provides an antibody-drug conjugate molecule. The antibody-drug conjugate molecule has the characteristics of multiple drug-loading ability and high drug-loading capacity, such that the antibody-drug conjugate can carry a large amount of a low toxicity chemical molecule and achieve a therapeutic effect without depending on antibody targeting or high toxicity chemicals.

Described herein are antibody conjugates and methods of making antibody conjugates.

Silica nanocarriers hybridized with superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (“SPIONs”) and curcumin through equilibrium or enforced adsorption technique. Methods for dual delivery of SPIONs and curcumin to a target for diagnosis or therapy, for example, for SPION-based magnetic resonance imaging or for targeted delivery of curcumin to a cell or tissue. The technique can be extend to co-precipitation of mixed metal oxide involving Ni, Mn, Co and Cu oxide. The calcination temperature can be varied from 500-900° C. The nanocombination is functionalized with chitosan, polyacrylic acid, PLGA or another agent to increase its biocompatibility in vivo.

The present disclosure provides, inter alia, multi-drug Antibody Drug Conjugates (MD-ADCs) and Linking Assembly (LA) Units, that are constructed in a site-specific matter via ‘orthogonal’ deprotection and drug loading. Also provided are, Protected Linking Assembly Units, which allow for ‘orthogonal’ deprotection and construction of MD-ADCs and LA Units of the present disclosure.

The present disclosure relates to the delivery of multiple copies of a payload molecule such as an active agent or a chelating agent capable of capturing an active agent, using as a carrier for their delivery a biocompatible copolymer comprising side chain-linked amino acids functionalized at their alpha-amino group by a reactive azide moiety by means of which the payload molecules are coupled to the copolymer. The copolymer is typically further functionalized to contain a single copy of a cell type- or tissue type-specific targeting moiety.

Immunomodulatory nanofilaments are provided which present immune factors, especially cytokines, to immune cells, particularly T cells, so as to modulate the immune response of said cells. Methods of using such nanofilaments are also provided.

Provided in the present invention is a bispecific antibody which comprises an anti-MUC1 VHH antibody fragment and an anti-CD16 VHH antibody fragment. The antibody fragment used in the present invention is a variable region sequence derived from a heavy chain camelid antibody and has a high binding affinity to the antigen. Antibody fragments recognizing MUC1 and CD16 are constructed in the same antibody molecule by the invention, so that the antibody molecule can specifically bind to MUC1 and CD16 molecules to promote the killing effect of NK cells on MUC1-positive expression cells and has an inhibiting effect on the growth of MUC1-positive tumors. Also provided is a conjugate of the bispecific antibodies, a related pharmaceutical composition and use.
