    摘要: The present invention is directed to binding molecules that possess one or more epitope-binding sites specific for an epitope of CD137 and one or more epitope-binding sites specific for an epitope of a tumor antigen (“TA”) (e.g., a “CD137×TA Binding Molecule”). In one embodiment, such CD137×TA Binding Molecules will be bispecific molecules, especially bispecific tetravalent diabodies, that are composed of two, three, four or more than four polypeptide chains and possessing two epitope-binding sites each specific for an epitope of CD137 and two epitope-binding sites each specific for an epitope of a TA. Alternatively, such CD137×TA Binding Molecules will be bispecific molecules, especially bispecific trivalent binding molecules composed of three or more polypeptide chains and possessing one or two epitope-binding sites each specific for an epitope of CD137 and one or two epitope-binding sites each specific for an epitope of a TA. The CD137×TA Binding Molecules of the invention are capable of simultaneous binding to CD137, and a TA. The invention is directed to pharmaceutical compositions that contain any such CD137×TA Binding Molecules. The invention is additionally directed to methods for the use of such molecules in the treatment of cancer and other diseases and conditions. The invention also provides novel CD137-binding molecules, and HER2/neu-binding molecules, as well as derivatives thereof and uses thereof.

    摘要: The present invention is directed to bi-specific monovalent diabodies that comprise an immunoglobulin Fc Domain (“bi-specific monovalent Fc diabodies”) and are composed of three polypeptide chains and which possess at least one binding site specific for an epitope of CD32B and one binding site specific for an epitope of CD79b (i.e., a “CD32B×CD79b bi-specific monovalent Fc diabody”). The bi-specific monovalent Fc diabodies of the present invention are capable of simultaneous binding to CD32B and CD79b. The invention is directed to such compositions, to pharmaceutical compositions that contain such bi-specific monovalent Fc diabodies and to methods for their use in the treatment of inflammatory diseases or conditions, and in particular, systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and graft vs. host disease.

    摘要: The present invention is directed to selected anti-PD-1 antibodies capable of binding to both cynomolgus monkey PD-1 and to human PD-1: PD-1 mAb 1, PD-1 mAb 2, PD-1 mAb 3, PD-1 mAb 4, PD-1 mAb 5, PD-1 mAb 6, PD-1 mAb 7, PD-1 mAb 8, PD-1 mAb 9, PD-1 mAb 10, PD-1 mAb 11, PD-1 mAb 12, PD-1 mAb 13, PD-1 mAb 14, or PD-1 mAb 15, and to humanized and chimeric versions of such antibodies. The invention additionally pertains to PD-1-binding molecules that comprise PD-1 binding fragments of such anti-PD-1 antibodies, immunocongugates, and to bispecific molecules, including diabodies, BiTEs, bispecific antibodies, etc., that comprise (i) such PD-1-binding fragments, and (ii) a domain capable of binding an epitope of a molecule involved in regulating an immune check point present on the surface of an immune cells. The present invention also pertains to methods of using molecules that bind PD-1 for stimulating immune responses, as well as methods of detecting PD-1.

    摘要: The present invention is directed to bi-specific diabodies that comprise two or more polypeptide chains and which possess at least one Epitope-Binding Site that is immunospecific for an epitope of PD-1 and at least one Epitope-Binding Site that is immunospecific for an epitope of LAG-3 (i.e., a “PD-1×LAG-3 bi-specific diabody”). More preferably, the present invention is directed to bi-specific diabodies that comprise four polypeptide chains and which possess two Epitope-Binding Sites that are immunospecific for one (or two) epitope(s) of PD-1 and two Epitope-Binding Site that are immunospecific for one (or two) epitope(s) of LAG-3 (i.e., a “PD-1×LAG-3 bi-specific, tetra-valent diabody”). The present invention also is directed to such diabodies that additionally comprise an immunoglobulin Fc Domain (“bi-specific Fc diabodies and bi-specific, tetra-valent, Fc diabodies”). The diabodies of the present invention are capable of simultaneously binding to PD-1 and to LAG-3, particularly as such molecules are arrayed on the surfaces of human cells. The invention is directed to pharmaceutical compositions that contain such diabodies, and to methods involving the use of such diabodies in the treatment of cancer and other diseases and conditions.
