The present invention provides multispecific antigen-binding molecules and uses thereof. The multispecific antigen-binding molecules comprise a first antigen-binding domain that specifically binds a target molecule, and a second antigen-binding domain that specifically binds an internalizing effector protein. The multispecific antigen-binding molecules of the present invention can, in some embodiments, be bispecific antibodies that are capable of binding both a target molecule and an internalizing effector protein. In certain embodiments of the invention, the simultaneous binding of the target molecule and the internalizing effector protein by the multispecific antigen-binding molecule of the present invention results in the attenuation of the activity of the target molecule to a greater extent than the binding of the target molecule alone. In other embodiments of the invention, the target molecule is a tumor associated antigen, and the simultaneous binding of the tumor associated antigen and the internalizing effector protein by the multispecific antigen-binding molecule of the present invention causes or facilitates the targeted killing of tumor cells.

Multispecific antigen-binding molecules and uses thereof

The present invention provides nucleic acid molecules that encode antibodies or antigen-binding fragments thereof, which specifically bind human interleukin-4 receptor (IL-4R). Also provided are expression vectors comprising nucleic acid molecule that encode anti-IL-4R antibodies, host cells comprising the expression vectors, and methods of producing anti-IL-4R antibodies or antigen-binding fragments thereof comprising growing the host cells under conditions permitting production of the antibody or fragment, and recovering the antibody or fragment so produced.

High affinity human antibodies to human IL-4 receptor

The present invention provides antibodies that bind to interleukin-33 (IL-33) and methods of using the same. The invention includes antibodies that inhibit or attenuate IL-33-mediated signaling. The antibodies of the invention may function to block the interaction between IL-33 and ST2. Alternatively, certain antibodies of the invention inhibit or attenuate IL-33-mediated signaling without blocking the IL-33/ST2 interaction. According to certain embodiments of the invention, the antibodies are fully human antibodies that bind to human IL-33 with high affinity. The antibodies of the invention are useful for the treatment of diseases and disorders associated with IL-33 signaling and/or IL-33 cellular expression, such as inflammatory diseases, or allergic diseases.

Anti-IL-33 antibodies and uses thereof

The present invention provides methods of treating, ameliorating, or inhibiting tumor growth, cancer, or pathological angiogenesis by administering to a subject in need thereof a human antibody or fragment thereof that specifically binds to human delta-like ligand 4 (hDll4) and blocks hDll4 binding to a Notch receptor. The anti-hDll4 antibody or fragment thereof of the present invention have a high affinity with the Kof 500 pM or less, as measured by surface plasmon resonance.

Human antibodies to human delta like ligand 4

Multispecific antigen-binding molecules binding to a target and an internalizing effector protein that is CD63 and uses thereof

A human antibody or an antigen-binding fragment which binds human IL-6 receptor (hIL-6R) with a Kof about 500 pM or less and blocks IL-6 activity with an ICof 200 pM or less, is provided. In preferred embodiments, the antibody the antibody or antigen-binding fragment binds hIL-6R with an affinity at least 2-fold higher relative to its binding monkey IL-6R.

High affinity antibodies to human IL-6 receptor

The present disclosure provides multispecific antigen-binding molecules and uses thereof. The multispecific antigen-binding molecules comprise a first antigen-binding domain that specifically binds a target molecule, and a second antigen-binding domain that specifically binds an internalizing effector protein. The multispecific antigen-binding molecules of the present disclosure can, in some embodiments, be bispecific antibodies that are capable of binding both a target molecule and an internalizing effector protein. In certain embodiments of the disclosure, the simultaneous binding of the target molecule and the internalizing effector protein by the multispecific antigen-binding molecule of the present disclosure results in the attenuation of the activity of the target molecule to a greater extent than the binding of the target molecule alone. In other embodiments of the disclosure, the target molecule is a tumor associated antigen, and the simultaneous binding of the tumor associated antigen and the internalizing effector protein by the multispecific antigen-binding molecule of the present disclosure causes or facilitates the targeted killing of tumor cells.

The present invention provides antibodies that bind to CD3 and methods of using the same. According to certain embodiments, the antibodies of the invention bind human CD3 with high affinity and induce human T cell proliferation. The invention includes antibodies that bind CD3 and induce T cell-mediated killing of tumor cells. According to certain embodiments, the present invention provides bispecific antigen-binding molecules comprising a first antigen-binding domain that specifically binds human CD3, and a second antigen-binding molecule that specifically binds human CD20. In certain embodiments, the bispecific antigen-binding molecules of the present invention are capable of inhibiting the growth of B-cell tumors expressing CD20. The antibodies and bispecific antigen-binding molecules of the invention are useful for the treatment of diseases and disorders in which an upregulated or induced targeted immune response is desired and/or therapeutically beneficial. For example, the antibodies of the invention are useful for the treatment of various cancers as well as other CD20-related diseases and disorders.

Anti-CD3 antibodies, bispecific antigen-binding molecules that bind CD3 and CD20, and uses thereof

The present invention provides antibodies that bind to the T-cell co-inhibitor ligand programmed death-ligand1 (PD-L1) protein, and methods of use. In various embodiments of the invention, the antibodies are fully human antibodies that bind to PD-L1. In certain embodiments, the present invention provides multi-specific antigen-binding molecules comprising a first binding specificity that binds to PD-L1 and a second binding specificity that binds to a tumor cell antigen, an infected cell-specific antigen, or a T-cell co-inhibitor. In some embodiments, the antibodies of the invention are useful for inhibiting or neutralizing PD-L1 activity, thus providing a means of treating a disease or disorder such as cancer or viral infection.

Human antibodies to PD-L1

The present invention provides interleukin-33 (IL-33) antagonists comprising one or more IL-33-binding domains and one or more multimerizing domains and methods of using the same. According to certain embodiments of the invention, the IL-33-binding domains can comprise an IL-33-binding portion of an ST2 protein and/or an extracellular portion of an IL-1RAcP protein. The IL-33 antagonists of the invention are useful for the treatment of diseases and disorders associated with IL-33 signaling and/or IL-33 cellular expression, such as infectious diseases, inflammatory diseases, allergic diseases and fibrotic diseases.

IL-33 antagonists and uses thereof

The present invention provides antibodies that bind to the T-cell co-inhibitor programmed death-1 (PD-1) protein, and methods of use. In various embodiments of the invention, the antibodies are fully human antibodies that bind to PD-1. In certain embodiments, the present invention provides multi-specific antigen-binding molecules comprising a first binding specificity that binds to PD-1 and a second binding specificity that binds to an autoimmune tissue antigen, another T-cell co-inhibitor, an Fc receptor, or a T-cell receptor. In some embodiments, the antibodies of the invention are useful for inhibiting or neutralizing PD-1 activity, thus providing a means of treating a disease or disorder such as cancer or a chronic viral infection. In other embodiments, the antibodies are useful for enhancing or stimulating PD-1 activity, thus providing a means of treating, for example, an autoimmune disease or disorder.

Human antibodies to PD-1

The present invention provides antibodies that bind to prolactin receptor (PRLR) and methods of using the same. According to certain embodiments, the antibodies of the invention bind human PRLR with high affinity.
