Delivering biological drugs to tissues
Disclosed herein are fusion proteins for use in treating an inflammatory or immune disorder and methods of use. In some examples, the fusion proteins include an anchor domain and a therapeutic polypeptide. In some examples, the fusion proteins and methods herein can be used to treat inflammatory or immune disorders.
SINGLE DOMAIN ANTIBODIES DIRECTED AGAINST INTRACELLULAR ANTIGENS
This invention provides compositions and methods to prevent aberrant cell proliferation in a subject using a single-domain antibody (sdAb) directed against an intracellular component, wherein the aberrant cell proliferation can be cancer. The sdAb is synergistic with one or more chemotherapeutic drugs and improves therapeutic efficacy of the one or more chemotherapeutic drug against cancer. The invention also includes a method of treating viral infections using a sdAb, wherein the sbAb inhibits the replication of viruses such as Ebola virus and Zika virus in infected cells.
METHODS AND COMPOSITIONS INVOLVING CHIMERIC BINDING POLYPEPTIDES
The current disclosure provides polypeptide, nucleic acid, compositions, and methods for treating or preventing CRS in patients in need thereof, particularly for those receiving an immunotherapy, such as a cancer immunotherapy, that may provoke a CRS response. Accordingly, aspects of the disclosure relate to a chimeric binding polypeptides comprising a heavy chain variable region comprising CDR1, CDR2, and CDR3 attached by a heterologous linker to a light chain variable region comprising CDR4, CDR5, and CDR6.
SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR MONOCLONAL ANTIBODY NOMOGRAMS
Provided herein are systems and methods for constructing and using nomograms for adjustment of dosing regimens. The nomograms use measured drug concentration data to determine a specific patient's effective half-life for a drug or set of drugs. The patient-specific effective half-life is used to determine the time at which the drug concentration in the patient's body will reach a target concentration after administration of a dose. Label dosages and dosing intervals are based on an average patient, so adjustment of a dosing regimen for a specific patient better accounts for the patient's unique pharmacokinetic interaction with the drug.
Method of Treating Inflammatory Bowel Disease with a Combination Therapy of Antibodies to IL-23 and TNF Alpha
A method of treating inflammatory bowel disorders, such as ulcerative colitis, comprises administering an IL-23 inhibitor, such as an anti-IL-23p19 antibody (e.g., guselkumab) and a TNFα inhibitor, such as an anti-TNFα antibody (e.g., golimumab).
Fc VARIANTS THAT IMPROVE FcRn BINDING AND/OR INCREASE ANTIBODY HALF-LIFE
The present invention discloses the generation of novel variants of Fc domains, including those found in antibodies, Fc fusions, and immuno-adhesions, which have an increased binding to the FcRn receptor and/or increased serum half-life.
Compositions and Methods of Treating Cancer with Chimeric Antigen Receptors Targeting Glypican 3
This disclosure relates to compositions and methods for treating cancer using chimeric antigen receptor T cells targeting glypican 3.
CELL CULTURE PROCESS BY INTENSIFIED PERFUSION WITH CONTINUOUS HARVEST AND WITHOUT CELL BLEEDING
Provided are a method and a system for culturing cells and harvesting biologics. More particularly process for cell culture by intensified perfusion with continuous harvest and without cell bleeding is provided.
PREDICTING A TREATMENT RESPONSE IN INFLAMMATORY BOWEL DISEASE
In general the present invention concerns a method for predicting the therapeutic outcome of a treatment of in inflammatory bowel disease for anti-TNF agents, anti-α.sub.4β.sub.7-integrin agents and/or anti-IL-12/23 agents. The method defines which the agents are likely to provide the best healing effect for a particular patients affected by an inflammatory bowel disease. In particular the method predicts the therapeutic outcome of a treatment of anti-TNF agents in inflammatory bowel disease.
VECTORS FOR USE IN AN INDUCIBLE COEXPRESSION SYSTEM
The present invention provides expression vectors for use in an inducible coexpression system, capable of controlled induction of expression of each gene product.
