Abstract: Provided herein are compositions, methods and uses involving antibodies that specifically bind to Programmed Death-1 (PD-1) and modulate the expression and/or activity of PD-1.

Abstract: The invention relates to an isolated immunoglobulin heavy chain polypeptide and an isolated immunoglobulin light chain polypeptide that bind to a programmed death-1 (PD-1) protein. The invention provides a PD-1-binding agent that comprises the aforementioned immunoglobulin heavy chain polypeptide and immunoglobulin light chain polypeptide. The invention also provides related vectors, compositions, and methods of using the PD-1-binding agent to treat a cancer or an infectious disease.

Abstract: The present invention features antibodies that have high binding affinity to human neonatal Fc receptor (FcRn). These anti-FcRn antibodies are useful, e.g., to promote clearance of autoantibodies in a subject, to suppress antigen presentation in a subject, to block an immune response, e.g., block an immune complex-based activation of the immune response in a subject, and to treat immunological diseases (e.g., autoimmune diseases) in a subject.

Abstract: The invention relates to an isolated immunoglobulin heavy chain polypeptide and an isolated immunoglobulin light chain polypeptide that bind to a protein encoded by the T Cell Immunoglobulin and Mucin Protein-3 (TIM-3). The invention provides a TIM-3-binding agent that comprises the aforementioned immunoglobulin heavy chain polypeptide and immunoglobulin light chain polypeptide. The invention also provides related vectors, compositions, and methods of using the TIM-3-binding agent to treat a disorder or disease that is responsive to TIM-3 inhibition, such as cancer, an infectious disease, or an autoimmune disease.

Abstract: The invention relates to an isolated immunoglobulin heavy chain polypeptide and an isolated immunoglobulin light chain polypeptide that bind to a protein encoded by the T Cell Immunoglobulin and Mucin Protein-3 (HM-3). The invention provides a TIM-3-binding agent that comprises the aforementioned immunoglobulin heavy chain polypeptide and immunoglobulin light chain polypeptide. The invention also provides related vectors, compositions, and methods of using the TIM-3-binding agent to treat a disorder or disease that is responsive to TIM-3 inhibition, such as cancer, an infectious disease, or an autoimmune disease.
