TECHNIQUES FOR PREDICTING, DETECTING AND REDUCING ASPECIFIC PROTEIN INTERFERENCE IN ASSAYS INVOLVING IMMUNOGLOBULIN SINGLE VARIABLE DOMAINS

This invention provides, and in certain specific but non-limiting aspects relates to: assays that can be used to predict whether a given ISV will be subject to protein interference as described herein and/or give rise to an (aspecific) signal in such an assay (such as for example in an ADA immunoassay). Such predictive assays could for example be used to test whether a given ISV could have a tendency to give rise to such protein interference and/or such a signal; to select ISV's that are not or less prone to such protein interference or to giving such a signal; as an assay or test that can be used to test whether certain modification(s) to an ISV will (fully or partially) reduce its tendency to give rise to such interference or such a signal; and/or as an assay or test that can be used to guide modification or improvement of an ISV so as to reduce its tendency to give rise to such protein interference or signal; —methods for modifying and/or improving ISV's to as to remove or reduce their tendency to give rise to such protein interference or such a signal; —modifications that can be introduced into an ISV that remove or reduce its tendency to give rise to such protein interference or such a signal; ISV's that have been specifically selected (for example, using the assay(s) described herein) to have no or low(er)/reduced tendency to give rise to such protein interference or such a signal; modified and/or improved ISV's that have no or a low(er)/reduced tendency to give rise to such protein interference or such a signal.

Antibody Molecules and Peptide Delivery Systems for Use in Alzheimer's Disease and Related Disorders

The present invention relates to antibody molecules and peptide delivery systems for use in the treatment and management of Alzheimer's disease and related disorders. In particular, the antibody molecules preferentially bind oligomeric forms of beta-amyloid peptide, in single domain format, and the peptide delivery systems facilitate specific transport of such antibody molecules, as well as other cargo molecules, across the blood-brain barrier. The invention also relates to constructs of the antibody molecules and the delivery peptides, as well as pharmaceutical compositions comprising effective amounts of the antibody molecules, delivery peptides, and/or their constructs, including humanized versions of the antibody molecules and constructs. The invention further relates to methods of making these products and pharmaceutical compositions thereof; and methods of using the pharmaceutical compositions in treating or preventing Alzheimer's and related disorders, such as those involving accumulation of beta-amyloid peptide or other peptides that aggregate in the brain; as well as to methods and kits for diagnosing these disorders.
