  • Patent number: 10306874
    Abstract: Non-human animals, and methods and compositions for making and using the same, are provided, wherein the non-human animals comprise a humanization of a Lymphocyte activation gene 3 (Lag3). The non-human animals may be described, in some embodiments, as having a genetic modification to an endogenous Lag3 locus so that the non-human animals express a Lag3 polypeptide that includes a human portion and an endogenous portion (e.g., a non-human portion).

  • Publication number: 20180186883
    Abstract: The present invention provides antibodies that bind to the T-cell co-inhibitor ligand programmed death-ligand1 (PD-L1) protein, and methods of use. In various embodiments of the invention, the antibodies are fully human antibodies that bind to PD-L1. In certain embodiments, the present invention provides multi-specific antigen-binding molecules comprising a first binding specificity that binds to PD-L1 and a second binding specificity that binds to a tumor cell antigen, an infected cell-specific antigen, or a T-cell co-inhibitor. In some embodiments, the antibodies of the invention are useful for inhibiting or neutralizing PD-L1 activity, thus providing a means of treating a disease or disorder such as cancer or viral infection.

  • Publication number: 20180185668
    Abstract: The present invention provides antibodies that bind to the T-cell co-inhibitor programmed death-1 (PD-1) protein, and methods of use. In various embodiments of the invention, the antibodies are fully human antibodies that bind to PD-1. In certain embodiments, the present invention provides multi-specific antigen-binding molecules comprising a first binding specificity that binds to PD-1 and a second binding specificity that binds to an autoimmune tissue antigen, another T-cell co-inhibitor, an Fc receptor, or a T-cell receptor. In some embodiments, the antibodies of the invention are useful for inhibiting or neutralizing PD-1 activity, thus providing a means of treating a disease or disorder such as cancer or a chronic viral infection. In other embodiments, the antibodies are useful for enhancing or stimulating PD-1 activity, thus providing a means of treating, for example, an autoimmune disease or disorder.
