Abstract: The present disclosure provides anti-CD73 binding molecules, e.g., antibodies and antigen binding fragments thereof. Also provided are pharmaceutical formulations comprising the disclosed compositions, and methods for the diagnosis and treatment of diseases associated with CD73-expression, e.g., cancer. Such diseases can be treated, e.g., by direct therapy with the anti-CD73 binding molecules disclosed herein (e.g., naked antibodies or antibody-drug conjugates that bind CD73), by adjuvant therapy with other antigen-binding anticancer agents such as immune checkpoint inhibitors (e.g., anti-CTLA-4 and anti-PD-1 monoclonal antibodies), and/or by combination therapies where the anti-CD73 molecules are administered before, after, or concurrently with chemotherapy.

Abstract: This disclosure describes, in one aspect, a method for identifying ?-glucan binding to immune cells of a subject. Generally, the method includes obtaining a blood sample from the subject, the blood sample comprising immune cells, adding soluble ?-glucan to at least a portion of the blood sample and incubating the mixture under conditions allowing the soluble ?-glucan to bind to the immune cells, and detecting soluble ?-glucan hound to the immune cells. In another aspect, this disclosure describes a method that generally includes identifying the subject as a low binder of ?-glucan, and co-administering to the subject a soluble ?-glucan and an antibody preparation capable of converting the subject from a low binder to a high binder.

Abstract: This disclosure provides, in one aspect, a method for analyzing a sample from a subject for a biomarker that is indicative of the subject's immune response to ?-glucan. Generally, the method includes obtaining a biological sample from a subject, analyzing the sample for a biomarker anti-?-glucan antibody compared to a reference standard, computing a Relative Antibody Unit (RAU) value for anti-?-glucan antibody in the sample, and identifying the subject as biomarker positive if the RAU value is greater than a predetermined RAU value for the biomarker anti-?-glucan antibody.

Abstract: This disclosure describes, in one aspect, a composition that includes a ?-glucan component and an antibody component that specifically binds to the ?-glucan. In another aspect, this disclosure describes a method of increasing a subject's response to ?-glucan immunotherapy. Generally, the method includes identifying the subject as a low binder of ?-glucan and administering to the subject a composition that comprises a ?-glucan moiety conjugated to the therapeutic antibody. In some cases, the therapeutic antibody can be an anti-tumor antibody.

Abstract: Described herein are beta-glucan compounds, compositions, and methods. Generally, the methods exploit the observation that beta-glucan compounds can bind to B cells. Thus, the methods generally include administering a beta-glucan compound to a subject in an amount effective for the beta-glucan compound to bind to a B cell and modulate at least one biological function of the B cell.
