The present invention is based, in part, on the identification of novel human anti-PD-1, PD-L1, and PD-L2 antibodies. Accordingly, the invention relates to compositions and methods for diagnosing, prognosing, and treating conditions that would benefit from modulating PD-1, PD-L1, and / or PD-L2 activity (e.g., persistent infectious diseases, autoimmune diseases, asthma, transplant rejection, inflammatory disorders and tumors) using the novel human anti-PD-1, PD-L1, and PD-L2 antibodies described herein.

The disclosure provides a method for immunotherapy of a subject afflicted with cancer, comprises administering to the subject a composition comprising a therapeutically effective amount of an antibody that inhibits signaling from the PD-1 / PD-L1 signaling pathway. This disclosure also provides a method for immunotherapy of a subject afflicted with cancer comprising selecting a subject that is a suitable candidate for immunotherapy based on an assessment that the proportion of cells in a test tissue sample from the subject that express PD-L1 on the cell surface exceeds a predetermined threshold level, and administering a therapeutically effective amount of an anti-PD-1 antibody to the selected subject. The invention additionally provides rabbit mAbs that bind specifically to a cell surface-expressed PD-L1 antigen in a FFPE tissue sample, and an automated IHC method for assessing cell surface expression in FFPE tissues using the provided anti-PD-L1 Abs.

Belonging to the field of tumor treatment and molecular immunology, the invention relates to an anti-CTLA4-anti-PD-1 bifunctional antibody, a pharmaceutical composition and use thereof. Specifically, the anti-CTLA4-anti-PD-1 bifunctional antibody comprises: a PD-1 (programmed death-1) targeted first protein functional region, and a CTLA4 (cytotoxic T lymphocyte sociated antigen 4) targeted second protein functional region. The bifunctional antibody provided by the invention can well bind to CTLA4 and PD-1 specifically, specifically remove the immunosuppression of CTLA4 and PD-1 on the body, and activate T lymphocytes, thus having good application prospect.

The present invention is directed to bispecific, heterodimeric checkpoint antibodies.

The present disclosure provides novel anti-PD-1 antibodies, compositions including the new antibodies, nucleic acids encoding the antibodies, and methods of making and using the same.

The present invention relates to a method of enhancing the anti-tumor response in a mammal. More particularly, the invention is concerned with combinations comprising a cytokine-secreting cell and an anti-PD-1 antibody, and methods of administering the combination for enhanced immune response to tumor cells in a patient with a cancer.

We formulated multiple TLR agonists into GVAX (lethally irradiated tumor cell vaccines engineered to secrete GM-CSF). Specifically, GLA and R848, TLR4 and TLR7 / 8 agonists found to be safe in patients, were formulated with GVAX (TEGVAX—for TLR agonists enhanced GVAX), and this formulation was effective in producing anti-tumor responses in 3 different preclinical models, including palpable B16. These anti-tumor responses were correlated with increased CD4 and CD8 T-cells that can secrete IFNγ circulating in the tumor microenvironment as well as significantly higher level of p15E specific CTL mediated cell killing in mice treated with TEGVAX in comparison to controls. When combined with anti-PD-1 antibody, TEGVAX was able to induce regression of established B16 tumors.
