Abstract: The methods and compositions described herein address the need in the art by providing compositions and methods for a therapy with an antibody that is specifically targeted to and/or retained intra- or peri-tumorally, limiting systemic exposure and reducing side-effects. Accordingly, aspects of the disclosure relate to a composition comprising an immunotherapeutic antibody operatively linked to an extracellular matrix (ECM)-affinity peptide. An ECM-affinity peptide is one that has affinity for an extracellular matrix protein.

Abstract: The present invention provides compositions and methods for treating cancer or a metastasis thereof in a subject. In some embodiments, the methods involve administering a composition comprising therapeutically effective amount of at least one immune stimulator to the subject. In some embodiments, a combination of at least two immune stimulators is used for the treatment. In some embodiments, the combination includes an alpha thymosin peptide and an additional immune stimulator, and/or optionally one or more additional anti-cancer agents.

Abstract: Cancer is treated via a coordinated treatment regimen that use various compounds and compositions that employ a combination vaccination together with immune modulatory treatment and biasing of an immune response towards a Th1 profile.

Abstract: Methods of treating cancer with antibodies that bind colony stimulating factor 1 receptor (CSF1R) in combination with PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors are provided.

Abstract: Embodiments of the invention are directed to the treatment of subjects with prostate cancer, in particular those with castration resistant prostate cancer, with glucocorticoid receptor antagonists. The prostate cancer may be one that has become resistant to androgen deprivation therapy, for example, by increase in glucocorticoid receptor expression and/or activity.

Abstract: The invention relates to isolated single-domain antibodies (sdAb) directed against von Willebrand Factor (VWF) D?D3 domain and chimeric polypeptides comprising thereof such as blood clotting factors and their uses in therapy such as in the prevention and treatment of hemostatic disorders. The invention also relates to a method of extending or increasing half-life of a therapeutic polypeptide comprising a step of adding to the polypeptide sequence of said therapeutic polypeptide at least one sdAb directed against VWF D?D3 domain.

Abstract: Methods of treating cancer with antibodies that bind colony stimulating factor 1 receptor (CSF1R) in combination with one or more immune stimulating agents are provided.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to, inter alia, a method for treating a tumor by intratumorally delivering an effective amount of a composition comprising an expression vector that comprises a first nucleotide sequence encoding a secretable vaccine protein, and a second nucleotide sequence encoding a T cell costimulatory fusion protein.

Abstract: The disclosure provides conjugates of anti-ASGR1 antibodies or antigen binding fragments thereof to a myeloid cell agonist, compositions comprising the conjugates, and methods of treating liver viral infections with the conjugates. The disclosure also provides for anti-ASGR1 antibodies or antigen binding fragments thereof and methods for using the antibodies or antigen binding fragments thereof in treating liver viral infections.

Abstract: Disclosed are compositions and methods including Anti-Müllerian Hormone (AMH) receptor binding peptides. The AMH receptor binding peptides can be used, for example, to modify the activity of the AMH receptor. For example, the AMH receptor binding peptides can activate the AMH receptor, such as the AMH receptor 2, thereby mimicking the function of AMH. In other examples, the AMH receptor binding peptides function as AMH receptor antagonists, thereby interfering with the function of endogenous AMH. By modifying the activity of the AMH receptor, the peptides have multiple applications, including for example modification of treatment of precocious puberty in females, delay of natural menopause, preservation of ovarian follicular reserve, contraception, fertility preservation after ovarian cortex transplant, treatment of endometriosis, treatment of cancer and/or cancer prevention, and treatment of polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS).

Abstract: This disclosure relates to immunogenic peptides that are specific to B-cell maturation antigen (BCMA) and Transmembrane activator and CAML interactor (TACI), and methods of use thereof.

Abstract: Disclosed is a fusion polypeptide for inhibiting neovascularization, including a peptide specifically binding to vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) receptors, and a hydrophilic elastin-based polypeptide (hydrophilic EBP) linked to the peptide.

Abstract: A conjugate of formula I: L-(DL)P??(1) wherein L is a Ligand unit, DL is a Drug Linker unit of formula II: wherein either: (a) R10 and R11 form a nitrogen-carbon double bond between the nitrogen and carbon atoms to which they are bound; or (b) R11 is OH, and R10 is: p is an integer of from 1 to 20.

Abstract: The subject invention pertains to compositions and methods for preparing and using recombinant proteins based on the fungal Coprinus comatus Y3 protein to control plant and animal viruses and microbes, and diagnose, prevent and treat cancers. Methods are disclosed using compositions comprising recombinant Y3 proteins to diagnose, prevent and/or treat cancer diseases based on recombinant Y3 protein interaction with glycans expressed on cancer cells.
