Patent number: 11639376Abstract: The present disclosure features signal-regulatory protein ? (SIRP-?) polypeptides and constructs that are useful, e.g., to target a cell (e.g., a cancer cell or a cell of the immune system), to increase phagocytosis of the target cell, to eliminate immune cells such as regulatory T-cells, to kill cancer cells, to treat a disease (e.g., cancer) in a subject, or any combinations thereof. The SIRP-? constructs include a high affinity SIRP-? D1 domain or variant thereof that binds CD47 with higher affinity than a wild-type SIRP-?. The SIRP-? polypeptides or constructs include a SIRP-? D1 variant fused to an Fc domain monomer, a human serum albumin (HSA), an albumin-binding peptide, or a polyethylene glycol (PEG) polymer. Compositions provided herein include (i) a polypeptide including a signal-regulatory protein ? (SIRP-?) D1 variant and (ii) an antibody.Type: GrantFiled: January 7, 2020Date of Patent: May 2, 2023Assignee: ALX Oncology Inc.Inventors: Jaume Pons, Laura Deming, Corey Goodman, Bang Janet Sim, Steven Elliot Kauder, Hong Wan, Tracy Chia-Chien Kuo
