Antibody drug conjugates (ADC's) comprising a drug conjugated to antibody or antigen binding fragments thereof that bind to Globo series antigen disclosed herein, as well as methods of use thereof. Methods of use include, without limitation, cancer therapies and diagnostics. The antibodies of the disclosure can bind to certain cancer cell surfaces. Exemplary targets of the antibodies disclosed herein can include carcinomas, such as sarcoma, skin cancer, leukemia, lymphoma, brain cancer, glioblastoma, lung cancer, breast cancer, oral cancer, head-and-neck cancer, nasopharyngeal cancer, esophagus cancer, stomach cancer, liver cancer, bile duct cancer, gallbladder cancer, bladder cancer, pancreatic cancer, intestinal cancer, colorectal cancer, kidney cancer, cervix cancer, endometrial cancer, ovarian cancer, testical cancer, buccal cancer, oropharyngeal cancer, laryngeal cancer and prostate cancer.

Conjugated biological molecules, pharmaceutical compositions and methods

The invention encompasses therapeutic compositions including Globo H-KLH conjugates and/or therapeutic antibodies as well as methods of making and using the same to treat proliferative diseases such as cancer. The therapeutic conjugates include an antigen linked to a carrier. In particular the therapeutic conjugates include a Globo H moiety and a KLH moiety and/or a derivatized KLH moiety subunit optionally linked via a linker. The therapeutic compositions are in part envisaged to act as cancer vaccines for boosting the body's natural ability to protect itself, through the immune system from dangers posed by damaged or abnormal cells such as cancer cells. An effective immune response is one that reduces the severity of disease, including but not limited to, prevention of disease, delay in onset of disease, decreased severity of symptoms, decreased morbidity and delayed mortality.

Compositions of a carbohydrate vaccine for inducing immune responses and uses thereof in cancer treatment

Pharmaceutical composition comprising antibodies or antigen binding fragments thereof that bind to stage-specific embryonic antigen 4 (SSEA-4) are disclosed herein, as well as methods of use thereof. Methods of use include, without limitation, cancer therapies and diagnostics. The antibodies of the disclosure can bind to certain cancer cell surfaces. Exemplary targets of the antibodies disclosed herein can include carcinomas, such as breast cancer, lung cancer, esophageal cancer, rectal cancer, biliary cancer, liver cancer, buccal cancer, gastric cancer, colon cancer, nasopharyngeal cancer, kidney cancer, prostate cancer, ovarian cancer, cervical cancer, endometrial cancer, pancreatic cancer, testicular cancer, bladder cancer, head and neck cancer, oral cancer, neuroendocrine cancer, adrenal cancer, thyroid cancer, bone cancer, skin cancer, basal cell carcinoma, squamous cell carcinoma, melanoma, and/or brain tumor.

Antibodies, pharmaceutical compositions and methods

The present invention provides vaccines comprising carbohydrate antigen conjugated to a diphtheria toxin (DT) as a carrier protein, wherein the ratio of the number of carbohydrate antigen molecule to the carrier protein molecule is higher than 5:1. Also disclosed herein is a novel saponin adjuvant and methods to inhibit cancer cells, by administering an effective amount of the vaccine disclose herein.

Vaccines with higher carbohydrate antigen density and novel saponin adjuvant

Pharmaceutical composition comprising antibodies or antigen binding fragments thereof that bind to Globo H, stage-specific embryonic antigen 3 (SSEA-3) and stage-specific embryonic antigen 4 (SSEA-4) are disclosed herein, as well as methods of use thereof. Methods of use include, without limitation, cancer therapies and diagnostics. The antibodies of the disclosure can bind to certain cancer cell surfaces. Exemplary targets of the antibodies disclosed herein can include carcinomas, such as sarcoma, skin cancer, leukemia, lymphoma, brain cancer, glioblastoma, lung cancer, breast cancer, oral cancer, head-and-neck cancer, nasopharyngeal cancer, esophagus cancer, stomach cancer, liver cancer, bile duct cancer, gallbladder cancer, bladder cancer, pancreatic cancer, intestinal cancer, colorectal cancer, kidney cancer, cervix cancer, endometrial cancer, ovarian cancer, testical cancer, buccal cancer, oropharyngeal cancer, laryngeal cancer and prostate cancer.

Human antibodies, pharmaceutical compositions and methods

The present disclosure encompasses immunogenic/therapeutic compositions including Globo series antigens (SSEA-4, Globo H or SSEA-3) glycoconjugates and therapeutic adjuvants (OBI-821 or OBI-834) as well as methods of making and using the same to treat proliferative diseases such as cancer. The therapeutic conjugates include an antigen linked to a carrier. In particular, the therapeutic conjugates include a SSEA-4, Globo H or SSEA-3 moiety and a KLH moiety subunit linked via a linker. The therapeutic compositions are in part envisaged to act as cancer vaccines (single valent, bi-valent or tri-valent vaccines) for boosting the body's natural ability to protect itself, through the immune system from dangers posed by damaged or abnormal cells such as cancer cells. Exemplary immune response can be characterized by reduction of the severity of disease, including but not limited to, prevention of disease, delay in onset of disease, decreased severity of symptoms, decreased morbidity and delayed mortality.

Immunogenic/therapeutic glycan compositions and uses thereof

The present invention provides antibodies or the antigen-binding portion thereof to a tumor-associate carbohydrate antigen. Also disclosed herein are pharmaceutical compositions and methods for the inhibition of cancer cells in a subject in need thereof. The pharmaceutical compositions comprise an antibody or an antigen-binding portion thereof and at least one pharmaceutically acceptable carrier.

Carbohydrate antibodies, pharmaceutical compositions and uses thereof

The present invention provides antibodies or the antigen-binding portion thereof, that bind to one or more carbohydrate antigens. Also disclosed herein are pharmaceutical pharmaceutical compositions and methods for the inhibition of cancer cells in a subject in need thereof. The pharmaceutical compositions comprise an antibody or an antigen-binding portion thereof and at least one pharmaceutically acceptable carrier.

Antibodies, pharmaceutical compositions and uses thereof

A bidirectional pentaplex system is connected to a machine room. The machine room provides a first optical signal, a second optical signal and a monitoring signal and transmits to the bidirectional pentaplex system. The bidirectional pentaplexer includes a first receiving unit, a second receiving unit, a first emitting unit, a second emitting unit, a filter, a transceiver, a grating, a plurality of reflecting units and a control circuit. The receiving units and the transceiver respectively receives the signals, then the control circuit controls the emitting units emitting the feedback signals and transmits the feedback signals back to the machine room.
