  • Patent number: 11970538
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to compositions and methods for inhibiting tumor evasion by reducing immune checkpoint suppression. In some embodiments, provided herein are compositions that block the interaction between PD-1 and its ligand (e.g., PD-1 and/or PD-L2) while promoting the interaction of the cells on which PD-1 and its ligand are expressed. Also provided are methods of using such compositions.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: May 20, 2021
    Date of Patent: April 30, 2024

  • Publication number: 20240002525
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to combinations of antibodies, or antigen-binding fragments thereof, that bind to CD137, and PD-1 antagonists. The disclosure also relates to methods for treating or ameliorating one or more symptoms of a disease, such as cancer, by administering the combination.

  • Publication number: 20230331799
    Abstract: The present invention relates to masked IL-15 cytokines, comprising an IL-15 cytokine or functional fragment thereof, a masking moiety and a proteolytically cleavable linker. The masking moiety masks the IL-15 cytokine or functional fragment thereof thereby reducing or preventing binding of the IL-cytokine or functional fragment thereof to its cognate receptor, but upon proteolytic cleavage of the cleavable linker at a target site, the IL-15 cytokine or functional fragment thereof becomes activated, which renders it capable or more capable of binding to its cognate receptor.
