Abstract: Combined preparations, and pharmaceutical compositions, comprising: (a) LAG-3 protein, or a derivative thereof that is able to bind to MHC class II molecules; and (b) a programmed cell death protein-1 (PD-1) pathway inhibitor, are described. The PD-1 pathway inhibitor, such as an anti-PD-1 antibody or an anti-PD-L1 antibody, and a soluble derivative of LAG-3, acting as an APC activator, together synergistically activate T cells (in particular, CD8+ T cells). Use of the combined preparations and compositions as medicaments, in particular for the treatment of cancer or infection, and to methods for the treatment of cancer or infection, is described.

Abstract: Antibodies, or antigen-binding fragments thereof, that bind to Lymphocyte-activation gene-3 (LAG-3) are described, in particular antibodies, or antigen-binding fragments thereof, that are agonists of LAG-3. The antibodies bind to LAG-3 and inhibit antigen-induced CD4+ and/or CD8+ T cell proliferation, or antigen-induced CD4+ and/or CD8+ T cell activation.

Abstract: This invention relates to the use of a LAG-3 protein or a derivative thereof and optionally a chemotherapy agent for the treatment of cancer in a subject. The subject may have one or more of a low monocyte count, a Luminal B breast cancer, an age of less than about 85 years, has been previously treated with a CDK4/6 inhibitor, and has not previously undergone treatment with a taxane chemotherapy. Suitably, the cancer is a breast cancer, such as a hormone receptor positive breast cancer.

Abstract: Antibodies, or antigen-binding fragments thereof, that bind to Lymphocyte-activation gene-3 (LAG-3) are described, in particular antibodies, or antigen-binding fragments thereof, that are agonists of LAG-3. The antibodies bind to LAG-3 and inhibit antigen-induced CD4+ and/or CD8+ T cell proliferation, or antigen-induced CD4+ and/or CD8+ T cell activation. The antibodies may be used as medicaments, in particular for the treatment of conditions associated with proliferation and/or activation of CD4+ and/or CD8+ T cells, such as inflammatory and autoimmune disorders.

Abstract: Combined preparations for the treatment of cancer are described. The combined preparations comprise: (a) LAG-3 protein, or a derivative thereof that is able to bind to MHC class II molecules; and (b) an anti-neoplastic agent, wherein the anti-neoplastic agent is a platinum-based anti-neoplastic agent or a topoisomerase I inhibitor. Methods for the treatment of cancer using the combined preparations are also described.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method of enhancing anti-tumor protection in a mammal. More particularly, the invention is concerned with combinations comprising antigen presenting cell (APC) activators and a cytokine-secreting cell and methods of administering the combination for enhanced immune response to tumor cells in a patient with a cancer.
