  • Publication number: 20250084179
    Abstract: Provided herein are novel anti-CD28×anti-TROP2 antibodies and methods of using such antibodies for the treatment of TROP2-associated cancers. Subject anti-CD28×anti-TROP2 antibodies are capable of agonistically binding to CD28 costimulatory molecules on T cells and TROP2 on tumor cells. Thus, such antibodies selectively enhance anti-tumor activity at tumor sites while minimizing peripheral toxicity. The subject antibodies provided herein are particularly useful in combination with other anti-cancer therapies, including, for example, bispecific antibodies for the treatment of TROP2-associated cancers.

  • Patent number: 8597471
    Abstract: A method for concentrating contaminated sorbate in a solution which includes contaminated sorbate and clean sorbate is described wherein contaminated sorbate having a freezing point which is higher than the freezing point of the clean sorbate is cooled to a temperature below the freezing point of the contaminated sorbate and above the freezing point of the clean sorbate to concentrate the contaminated sorbate by cycling alternately from a desorption cycle to an adsorption cycle. By maintaining the solution at a temperature between the freezing point of the contaminated sorbate and the freezing point of the clean sorbate, the clean sorbate can be evaporated off.

  • Patent number: 8522569
    Abstract: A method and system of utilizing waste heat from a plurality of data center equipment comprising the steps of collecting waste heat from a plurality of data center equipment and utilizing said waste heat as the driving heat input for a heat driven engine. Heat recovery means collects waste heat from heat-producing equipment and transfers it in the form of hot water to drive a heat driven engine such as a chiller or heat pump. The output of the heat driven engine may be put to many productive uses, thereby reducing the over all energy load on the data center.
