Abstract: Anti-RG-1 antibodies, antibody fragments, or antibody mimetics conjugated to partner molecules, such as drugs, radioisotopes, and cytotoxins, wherein the partner molecule exerts its effect regardless of whether the RG-1 bound conjugate is internalized within a targeted cell, are useful for treating cancers.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides isolated monoclonal antibodies that specifically bind to CD70 with high affinity, particularly human monoclonal antibodies. Preferably, the antibodies bind human CD70. In certain embodiments, the antibodies are capable of being internalized into CD70-expressing cells or are capable of mediating antigen dependent cellular cytotoxicity. Nucleic acid molecules encoding the antibodies of this disclosure, expression vectors, host cells and methods for expressing the antibodies of this disclosure are also provided. Antibody-partner molecule conjugates, bispecific molecules and pharmaceutical compositions comprising the antibodies of this disclosure are also provided. This disclosure also provides methods for detecting CD70, as well as methods for treating cancers, such as renal cancer and lymphomas, using an anti-CD7Q antibody of this disclosure.

Abstract: The present invention provides anti-ED-B antibodies, antibody fragments, and antibody mimetics and such antibodies conjugated to a partner molecule, wherein the antibody or the antibody-partner molecule conjugate provides a therapeutic effect regardless of whether the ED-B-antibody or ED-B-conjugate complex is internalized within a targeted cell.

Abstract: ITGL-TSP polypeptides and polynucleotides and methods for producing such polypeptides by recombinant techniques are disclosed. Also disclosed are methods for utilizing ITGL-TSP polypeptides and polynucleotides in the design of protocols for the treatment of, angiogenic diseases (cancer, cancer metastasis, chronic inflammatory disorders, rheumatoid arthritis, atherosclerosis, macular degeneration, diabetic retmopathy), restenosis, Alzheimer's, disease and tissue remodeling, among others, and diagnostic assays for such conditions.

Abstract: The present invention relates to novel anti-angiogenic proteins, related to thrombospondin. More specifically, isolated nucleic acid molecules are provided encoding human METH1 and METH2. METH1 and METH2 polypeptides are also provided, as are vectors, host cells and recombinant methods for producing the same. Also provided are diagnostic methods for the prognosis of cancer and therapeutic methods for treating individuals in need of an increased amount of METH1 or METH2. Also provided are methods for inhibiting angiogenesis using METH1 or METH2.

Abstract: The present invention provides methods and compositions for screening, diagnosis and prognosis of breast cancer, for monitoring the effectiveness of breast cancer treatment, and for drug development.
