  • Publication number: 20240117047
    Abstract: Provided herein are, inter alia, antibodies (e.g. humanized antibodies, monoclonal antibodies, antibody fragments (e.g., scFvs) and antibody compositions (e.g., chimeric antigen receptors, bispecific antibodies), which bind human tyrosine kinase-like orphan receptor 1 (ROR1) with high efficiency and specificity. The antibodies and antibody compositions provided herein include novel light and heavy chain domain CDRs and framework regions and are, inter alia, useful for diagnosing and treating cancer and other ROR1-related diseases.

  • Publication number: 20230341412
    Abstract: Therapeutic antibodies having binding specificity for ROR-1 expressed on cancer cells (particularly leukemic and lymphomic cells) and pharmaceutical compositions containing one or more such antibodies for use in treating cancer. Methods for diagnosing such cancers through in vitro detection of binding to ROR-1 protein expressed on putative cancer cells are also provided.

  • Publication number: 20230312708
    Abstract: Provided herein is a chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) and CAR-expressing immune cells that target human RORI expressed aberrantly on a tumor cancers. Described herein are chimeric antigen receptors that target human ROR-1, cell compositions expressing the chimeric antigen receptors, and methods and uses of the chimeric antigen receptors and/or the cell compositions. The chimeric antigen receptors described herein can be expressed by the T lymphocytes isolated from an individual afflicted with cancer and re-administered to the individual.
