Abstract:
In certain embodiments, this present invention provides compositions, and methods for inhibiting EphB4 activity in ovarian cancer. In other embodiments, the present invention provides methods and compositions for treating ovarian cancer.
Abstract:
In certain embodiments, this present invention provides methods of identifying and using agonists and antagonists of Delta-like 4 (D114) signaling.
Abstract:
In certain embodiments, this present invention provides polypeptide compositions, including compositions a modified polypeptide, and methods for inhibiting Ephrin B2 or EphB4 activity. In other embodiments, the present invention provides methods and compositions for treating cancer or for treating angiogenesis-associated diseases.
Abstract:
The present invention describes the use of EphrinB2 expression as a biomarker to evaluate the efficacy of treatment and to assist physicians in deciding on the course of a treatment in an individual suffering from a platinum resistant metastatic cancer. In one aspect, the invention provides methods to diagnose and select a subject with cancer for treatment using an EphB4-EphrinB2 inhibitor, or an EphB4-EphrinB2 inhibitor in combination with an immune stimulating drug, as front-line therapy for treatment of cancers, for treatment of a number of cancers where standard therapies have been shown to be ineffective, result in relapse, or are not even considered for use due to the type of cancer and related tumors, and/or for treatment of a number of cancers wherein the subject is currently on a course of treatment with an immune stimulating drug.
Abstract:
In certain embodiments, this present invention provides polypeptide compositions (e.g., antibodies and antigen binding portions thereof that bind to EphB4), and methods for inhibiting EphB4 activity. In other embodiments, the present invention provides methods and compositions for treating cancer or for treating angiogenesis-associated diseases.

Abstract:
In certain embodiments, this present disclosure provides nucleic acid compounds, compositions, and methods for inhibiting Ephrin B2 or EphB4 expression. In certain embodiments, the present disclosure provides methods and compositions for treating cancer or for treating angiogenesis-associated diseases.
Abstract:
Compositions and methods are provided for treating cancer in a subject comprising administering to the subject a therapeutically effective amount of a polypeptide agent that inhibits EphB4 or EphrinB2 mediated functions. In various embodiments the methods further provide administration of a therapeutically effective amount of an immune checkpoint inhibitor. The present inventors have demonstrated that the synergistic effect of the combination of an EphB4-EphrinB2 inhibitor and checkpoint inhibitor provides superior progression-free survival (PFS) and objective response rates (ORR) patients with various cancers by activating T cell and promoting T cell and NK cell trafficking into the tumor and via migration of immune cells (e.g., CD3 and CD8) into the tumor.
