Abstract: CD47 antigen-binding molecules are disclosed. Also disclosed are nucleic acids and expression vectors encoding, compositions comprising, and methods using, the CD47 antigen-binding molecules.

Abstract: Provided herein are compositions comprising recombinant polyclonal proteins (RPPs) derived from mammalian plasma cells and plasmablasts. Also provided are methods of using the RPPs.

Abstract: Disclosed are a bispecific antigen-binding construct and the preparation method and use thereof, wherein the construct comprises a first antigen binding unit and a second antigen binding unit, the first antigen binding unit is a single chain variable region antibody fragment ScFV which specifically binds to the surface antigen of immune cells, and the second antigen binding unit is a Slit2D2 protein fragment which specifically binds to the surface antigen Robo1 of tumour cells. That is to say, the construct can bind to the surface antigen of immune cells and the surface Robo1 molecule of tumour cells at the same time, so that as the distance between tumour cells and immune cells get smaller, the quiescent immune cells are effectively activated, and the effect of killing and wounding tumours is produced.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to ILT7 binding molecules, e.g., anti-ILT7 antibodies, and methods for treating or preventing conditions and diseases associated with ILT7-expressing cells such as autoimmune diseases.

Abstract: An object of the present invention is to provide clinically applicable aAVC-NY-ESO-1 cells stably expressing NY-ESO-1 in order to use aAVC-NY-ESO-1 cells in treating patients having a NY-ESO-1-expressing cancer. The present invention provides, for example, a human-derived cell comprising a polynucleotide encoding CD1d and a polynucleotide encoding NY-ESO-1 or a fragment thereof, wherein the polynucleotide encoding NY-ESO-1 or a fragment thereof is operably linked to an inducible promoter.

Abstract: Provided herein are DLL3 binding agents and chimeric antigen receptors (CARs) comprising a DLL3 binding molecule that specifically binds to DLL3; and immune cells comprising these DLL3-specific CARs, e.g., CAR-T cells. Also provided are methods of making and using DLL3-specific CARs, and immune cells comprising DLL3-specific CARs.

Abstract: Fixed dose HER2 antibody formulations for subcutaneous administration are provided along with their use in the treatment of cancer. The formulations include fixed dose subcutaneous formulations of pertuzumab and subcutaneous co-formulations of pertuzumab and trastuzumab, and their use in the treatment of cancer.

Abstract: The present invention provides a combination therapy for treatment of a tumour in a subject. The combination therapy comprises administration of (i) an antibody directed against cancer stem cells and (ii) a checkpoint inhibitor.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a dissociation reagent for tumor tissues. The dissociation reagent does not contain collagenase or trypsin but further contains hyaluronidase or a mixture of hyaluronidase and DNase I. The present disclosure also relates to use of the dissociation reagent in dispersing tumor tissues and detecting expression level of molecular markers on cell surface by flow cytometry. The dissociation reagent of the present disclosure does not cause degradation of molecular markers on cell surface such as CD8, PD-1, Tim-3, Lag-3 and the like, thus does not affect downstream assays.

Abstract: Methods are provided for the adjuvant treatment of operable HER2-positive primary breast cancer in human patients by administration of pertuzumab in addition to chemotherapy and trastuzumab. The methods reduce the risk of recurrence of invasive breast cancer or death for a patient diagnosed with HER2-positive early breast cancer (eBC) compared to administration of trastuzumab and chemotherapy, without pertuzumab.

Abstract: The invention relates to antibodies that bind to VEGFR-2. The antibodies are used for treating neoplastic diseases, hyperproliferative disorders, and angiogenic disorders and can be used alone or in combination with other agents.

Abstract: A therapeutic agent capable of binding to the receptor CLPTM1 at the surface of an immune cell and modulating its activity for use in modulating the activity of the immune system to treat cancer, wherein the therapeutic agent is capable of inhibiting the growth and/or viability of an anti-inflammatory and/or immunosuppressive cell to relieve unwanted or deleterious immunosuppression by eliminating anti-inflammatory and/or immunosuppressive immune cells; and/or the therapeutic agent is capable of stimulating an antigen-presenting immune cell and acts to stimulate antigen-presenting immune cells to activate an anti-cancer immune response.

Abstract: Disclosed are methods of treating a subject having high-risk multiple myeloma, methods of achieving negative minimal residual disease status in a subject having multiple myeloma, and methods of predicting a likelihood of, or decreasing a risk of, relapse and/or disease progression in a subject having multiple myeloma.

Abstract: A conjugate of formula (I): Ab-(DL)p wherein: Ab is an antibody, or an active fragment of an antibody; DL is (II).

Abstract: The present invention relates to tumor targeted bispecific agonistic antigen binding molecules characterized by monovalent binding to CD28, methods for their production, pharmaceutical compositions containing these antibodies, and methods of using the same.

Abstract: The present application provides methods and compositions for treating cancer, for example, renal cell carcinoma, melanoma, ovarian, breast, prostate, colon, pancreatic, bladder, liver, lung, and thyroid cancer, and more particularly to using an inhibitor of a stearoyl-Coenzyme A desaturase 1 (SCD1) enzyme in combination with a checkpoint inhibitor to treat these disorders.

Abstract: The present invention relates to the design of a customized therapy for a subject with breast cancer based on the c-MAF expression level and the menopausal status of the subject. In some embodiments, the customized therapy comprises an agent for avoiding or preventing bone degradation. In some embodiments, the agent for avoiding or preventing bone degradation is zoledronic acid.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates generally to immunoglobulin-related compositions (e.g., antibodies or antigen binding fragments thereof) that can bind to and neutralize the activity of L1-CAM protein. The antibodies of the present technology are useful in methods for detecting and treating a L1-CAM-positive cancer in a subject in need thereof.

Abstract: The invention relates to PD-1 binding agents that block the interaction of PD-1 with its ligands, and the use of such binding agents in the treatment, prevention and detection of disease.

Abstract: The present invention relates to the use of a recombinant LAG-3 or derivatives thereof in order to boost a monocyte-mediated immune response, in particular to elicit an increase in the number of monocytes in blood. This finds use in the development of novel therapeutic agents for the treatment of an infectious disease or cancer.
