  • Patent number: 11919958
    Abstract: Provided herein are novel anti-CD28×anti-B7H3 (also referred to as “?CD28×?B7H3”) heterodimeric bispecific antibodies and methods of using such antibodies for the treatment of cancers. Subject ?CD28×?B7H3 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.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: August 19, 2021
    Date of Patent: March 5, 2024
    Assignee: Xencor, Inc.
    Inventors: John R. Desjarlais, Gregory Moore, Michael Hedvat, Juan Diaz, Veronica Gusti Zeng
  • Publication number: 20230383012
    Abstract: Provided herein are novel ?PD-L1, ?PD-L2, and ?CD28 antibodies. In some embodiments, the antibodies are ?PD-L1×?PD-L2×?CD28 antibodies. Such antibodies enhance anti-tumor activity by providing a costimulatory signal for T-cell activation against tumor cells while advantageously also blocking inhibitory PD-L1:PD1 and/or PD-L2:PD1 pathway interactions.

  • Publication number: 20230322961
    Abstract: Provided herein are novel anti-CD28×anti-PSMA antibodies and methods of using such antibodies for the treatment of PSMA-associated cancers. Subject anti-CD28×anti-PSMA antibodies are capable of agonistically binding to CD28 costimulatory molecules on T cells and PSMA 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 in combination with other anti-cancer therapies (e.g., anti-CD3×anti-PSMA antibodies) for the treatment of prostate cancers.
