The present application relates to neutralizing antibodies or antigen-binding fragments thereof against betacoronaviruses such as severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), to nucleic acid(s) encoding such neutralizing antibodies or antigen-binding fragments thereof, and to mixture and compositions comprising such antibodies, antigen-binding fragments or nucleic acids. Such neutralizing antibodies or antigen-binding fragments thereof are able to block betacoronavirus entry into cells and/or to induce complement-dependent cytotoxicity (CDC), antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity (ADCC) and/or antibody-dependent cellular phagocytosis (ADCP) against betacoronavirus-infected cells. Methods and uses of the antibodies, antigen-binding fragments thereof, nucleic acid(s) or compositions, including therapeutic, diagnostic, and preventative methods and uses for betacoronavirus infections and related diseases such as COVID-19, are also described.

Anti-spike glycoprotein antibodies and the therapeutic use thereof

The present invention relates to plexin D1 for use as a targetable protein in the treatment or diagnosis of disorders that involve expression of plexin D1. Diagnosis is suitably effected by detecting the presence of plexin D1 in the body or a bodily tissue or fluid, whereas treatment is effected by targeting plexin D1 for delivery of therapeutics to the site where treatment is needed. The invention further relates to the use of molecules that bind plexin D1, a nucleic acid encoding plexin D1 or a ligand of plexin D1 for the preparation of a therapeutical composition for the treatment or diagnosis of disorders that involve expression of plexin D1. The disorders comprise disorders in which plexin D1 is expressed on tumor cells, tumor blood vessels or activated macrophages.

Plexin D1 as a target for tumor diagnosis and therapy

The present invention relates to plexin D1 for use as a targetable protein in the treatment or diagnosis of disorders that involve expression of plexin D1.
