  • Publication number: 20220023420
    Abstract: A fusion protein comprising: a first component comprising an antibody, or a fragment or variant thereof; and a second component comprising a cytokine trap or an adenosine deaminase or a fragment or variant thereof. In certain embodiments, the antibody is an anti-PD-1 antibody. In certain embodiments, the antibody binds to a tumor antigen, for example a MUC16 or MUC1 antigen. In certain embodiments, the cytokine trap is a TGF-? trap. A polynucleotide encoding such a fusion protein and a vector comprising such a polynucleotide. A composition comprising the fusion protein. A method of using the composition, including in the treatment of cancer.

  • Publication number: 20180251548
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates the combined effect of anti-CD155 [CD155, Nectin-like protein 5 (Nec1-5), Tage4, HVED, poliovirus receptor (PVR)] antibodies or anti TIGIT antibodies [TIGIT (T cell immunoreceptor with Ig and ITIM domains), WUCAM (Washington University cell adhesion molecule), Vstm3 (V-set and transmembrane domaincontaining protein 3), Vsig9 (V-set and immunoglobulin domain-containing protein 9)] with a TGF Beta 1 antagonist. The effect is measured by increased IFN-gamma production human breast adenocarcinoma cells. Use of combined antibodies /CD155 or TIGIT) with a TGF-Beta 1 antagon-ist to treat a patient with cancer is claimed.
