Abstract: The present invention relates to new agents and methods useful for preventing, treating and diagnosing diseases such as cancer. For example, the invention relates to prodrug agents useful for targeting and delivering cytotoxic drugs to cancerous cells.

Abstract: Disclosed are various compositions and methods for use in achieving specific blood coagulation. This is exemplified by the specific in vivo coagulation of tumor vasculature, causing tumor regression, through the site-specific delivery of a coagulant using a bispecific antibody.

Abstract: DNA segments that include DNA sequences defining a structural gene coding for a human tissue factor heavy chain protein and a precursor form of that protein are disclosed. Recombinant DNA molecules capable of expressing a human tissue factor heavy chain protein are also disclosed. Further disclosed are human tissue factor heavy chain binding site polypeptide analogs as well as methods for their use.

Abstract: The present invention describes a mutant human tissue factor protein which binds functional Factor VII/VIIa but is substantially free of functional procoagulant cofactor activity, and compositions containing the mutant protein. Also disclosed are methods for using the mutant human tissue factor proteins, and recombinant DNA vectors for expressing the protein.

Abstract: The present invention contemplates therapeutic compositions containing a D.sub.30 homolog capable of binding to the Mac-1 receptor D.sub.30 binding site and inhibiting fibrinogen binding to the Mac-1 receptor via the D.sub.30 binding site, Methods of inhibiting Mac-1 receptor binding to any Mac-1 ligand and methods of inhibiting Mac-1 receptor mediated inflammation within a patient by administering a D.sub.

Abstract: This invention provides a method of inhibiting coagulation in extracorporeal circulation in a subject, comprising administration of a therapeutically effective amount of a monoclonal antibody which inhibits the ability of tissue factor to bind to factor VII/VIIa. The method prevents complex formation between tissue factor and factor VII/VIIa and thus inhibits coagulation of blood in extracorporeal procedures such as cardiopulmonary bypass and other shunt procedures. Anti-tissue factor monoclonal antibodies produced by hybridoma cell lines TFS-5G9 or TF9-6B4 may be used in the claimed methods.

Abstract: Murine hybridomas producing monoclonal antibodies capable of immunoreacting with huTFh and polypeptide analogs are described. Also contemplated are immunologic methods for detecting huTF heavy chain in body fluid, detecting thrombic events in vivo, isolating coagulation factor, and neutralizing VII/VIIa coagulation factor binding in vivo.

Abstract: A new, human proteinaceous lymphokine denominated cytotoxicity triggering factor (CTF) is disclosed as are methods of its preparation and use. Substantially pure CTF has an apparent M.sub.r of about 55 kd, is capable of inducing secretion of a tumor-killing factor containing tumor necrosis factor-alpha from primed monocytes, and is substantially free from pyrogen as well as interferon-gamma, interleukin-2 and direct cytotoxin.
