  • Publication number: 20240018221
    Abstract: The invention relates generally to antigen-binding molecules that specifically bind to Myosin Heavy Chain 9 (MYH9) and uses thereof for the treatment of specific cancers, such as mast cell tumors. In one embodiment, the MYH9 is canine MYH9 and the antigen-binding molecule is an antibody. In another embodiment, the antigen-binding molecule is conjugated to a toxin, for the treatment of canine mast cell tumors.

  • Patent number: 11306153
    Abstract: The present invention relates to antigen-binding proteins, or antigen-binding fragments thereof that bind to a glycan on the AXL receptor tyrosine kinase. The present invention also relates to antigen-binding proteins, or antigen-binding fragment conjugated to a radioisotope or cytotoxin, and wherein said antigen-binding proteins, or antigen-binding fragment is internalised into a cell upon binding to AXL receptor tyrosine kinase. Compositions comprising a physiologically acceptable carrier and a therapeutically effective amount of the antigen-binding protein, or antigen-binding fragment thereof, therapeutic use of the antigen-binding protein, or antigen-binding fragment thereof, methods for detecting cancer as well as kits when used in such methods are also provided.

  • Patent number: 10654921
    Abstract: The present invention relates to an antigen-binding protein, preferably a monoclonal antibody, against annexin A2 (ANXA2), comprising (i) a heavy chain variable domain comprising a VHCDR1 of sequence GYSITSGYSWH, a VHCDR2 of sequence YIHYSGSTKYNPSLKS and a VHCDR3 of sequence GSNYGFDY; and (ii) a light chain variable domain comprising a VLCDR1 of sequence KSSQSLLYSNDQKNYLA, a VLCDR2 of sequence WASIRES, and a VLCDR3 of sequence QQYYIYPLT. Also provided is an ANXA2 binding protein comprising (i) a heavy chain variable domain comprising a VHCDR1 of sequence VYSITSGYSWH; a VHCDR2 of sequence YIHYSGSTKYNPSLKS, and a VHCDR3 of sequence GTDNAVDY; and (ii) a light chain variable domain comprising a VLCDR1 of sequence KSSQSLLYSSNQKNYLA, a VLCDR2 of sequence WASSRES, and a VLCDR3 of sequence QQYYIYPLT. The antibodies preferably bind to an N-linked glycan on ANXA2, and are internalised upon binding. They may be conjugated with cytotoxins and may be used in the treatment or detection of cancer.
