Abstract: The present invention relates to anti-PD-L1 antibodies, bispecific antibodies containing one domain with specificity to PD-L1, and to immunocytokines comprising an anti-PD-L1 antibody fused to a cytokine, such as IL-2. The present invention also provides methods of treatment, uses and pharmaceutical compositions comprising the antibodies, bispecific antibodies and immunocytokines.

Abstract: The present invention relates to antibodies that bind Acinetobacter baumannii, and their use in the diagnosis of, and the prevention and treatment of, bacterial infection caused by Acinetobacter baumannii. In particular, the present invention relates to monoclonal antibodies that specifically bind at the bacterial wall of Acinetobacter baumannii bacteria, such as on, e.g., living bacteria.

Abstract: The invention relates to antibodies or antigen-binding fragments thereof which specifically bind to CXCR4. The invention also relates to said antibodies for use in therapy, for use in treating cancer, and for use in treating a solid tumor. The invention also relates to pharmaceutical compositions comprising said antibodies, nucleic acids that encode said antibodies, vectors comprising said nucleic acids, and host cells comprising said nucleic acids or vectors.

Abstract: Bispecific antigen binding molecules (e.g., antibodies) that bind blood clotting factors, factor IXa (FIXa) and factor X (FX), and enhance the FIXa-catalysed activation of FX to FXa. Use of the bispecific antigen binding molecules to control bleeding, by replacing natural cofactor FVIIIa which is deficient in patients with haemophilia A.

Abstract: The invention relates to an approach for introducing one or more desired insertions and/or deletions of known sizes into one or more predefined locations in a nucleic acid (eg, in a cell or organism genome). They developed techniques to do this either in a sequential fashion or by inserting a discrete DNA fragment of defined size into the genome precisely in a predefined location or carrying out a discrete deletion of a defined size at a precise location. The technique is based on the observation that DNA single-stranded breaks are preferentially repaired through the HDR pathway, and this reduces the chances of indels (eg, produced by NHEJ) in the present invention and thus is more efficient than prior art techniques. The invention also provides sequential insertion and/or deletions using single- or double-stranded DNA cutting.

Abstract: The invention relates to a protein for use in diagnosing and treating primary or secondary sclerosing diseases, a fusion protein, and nucleotide sequence and a vector, and to a pharmaceutical composition for use in diagnosing and treating primary or secondary sclerosing diseases.

Abstract: Antibodies that bind ICOS (Inducible T cell Co-Stimulator). Therapeutic use of anti-ICOS antibodies for modulating the ratio between regulatory T cells and effector T cells, to stimulate the immune system of patients, including use in treating cancers. Methods of producing anti-ICOS antibodies, including species cross-reactive antibodies, using transgenic knock-out mice.

Abstract: The invention relates to the provision of antibody therapeutics and prophylactics that are tailored specifically for human use. The present invention provides libraries, vertebrates and cells, such as transgenic mice or rats or transgenic mouse or rat cells. Furthermore, the invention relates to methods of using the vertebrates to isolate antibodies or nucleotide sequences encoding antibodies. Antibodies, heavy chains, polypeptides, nucleotide sequences, pharmaceutical compositions and uses are also provided by the invention.

Abstract: The present invention relates to combinations comprising anti-human x OX40L antibodies, new biomarkers of autoimmune or alloimmune deseases, and their use in various therapeutic methods.

Abstract: The present invention related to anti-human OX40L antibodies, new medical uses and methods.

Abstract: The present invention relates to anti-human OX40L antibodies, new medical uses and methods.

Abstract: The invention relates to treating or preventing anaemia in a subject, such as a mammal or human. In particular, the invention addresses moderate to severe anaemia. Additionally, the invention provides means for sparing administration of erythropoiesis stimulating agents (ESAs) to subjects.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to the concept of sectoring antibody gene segment repertoires in order to enable the development of novel, synthetic antibody chain repertoires not seen in nature. The present invention is also directed to the realisation of the inventors that sectoring can also alter gene segment expression by providing new arrangements of gene segment clusters relative to other gene segments and regulatory elements in transgenic immunoglobulin loci, thereby providing for new synthetic antibody chain sequence repertoires. The invention also relates to gene segment inversion.

Abstract: The present invention relates to anti-OPG antibodies, and to methods of treatment, uses and pharmaceutical compositions comprising such antibodies, for example in the treatment and prevention of PAH.
