COMPOSITIONS AND METHODS FOR TREATING POMPE DISEASE
The present application provides methods of treating Pompe disease such as infantile-onset Pompe disease (IOPD) using a pharmaceutical composition comprising an oligosaccharide-acid α-glucosidase (GAA) conjugate, such as avalglucosidase alfa. Also provided are formulations of the oligosaccharide-GAA conjugates.
Autologous cancer vaccines
The invention relates to an autologous cancer vaccine and also to the method for producing same comprising the following steps: a) extracting the proteins contained in a serum or plasma sample obtained from a patient suffering from cancer; and b) bringing the proteins extracted in step a) into contact with particles of hydroxyapatite and/or tricalcium phosphate.
COMPOSITIONS AND METHODS FOR THE TREATMENT OF IMMUNODEFICIENCY
The present invention relates to compositions and methods for the treatment of immunodeficiency (e.g., primary immunodeficiency disease). In particular, the invention provides human plasma immunoglobulin compositions containing select antibody titers specific for a plurality of respiratory pathogens, methods of identifying human donors and donor samples for use in the compositions, methods of manufacturing the compositions, and methods of utilizing the compositions (e.g., for prophylactic administration and/or therapeutic treatment (e.g., passive immunization (e.g., immune-prophylaxis))).
THERAPIES AND METHODS TO TREAT TLR2-MEDIATED DISEASES AND DISORDERS
The disclosure provides for methods and treatments of TLR2-mediated diseases and disorders comprising administering an antibody, antibody fragment, or polypeptide that binds to and inhibits the biological activity of oxidized phospholipids.
Pharmaceutically Active Agent Complexes, Polymer Complexes, and Compositions and Methods Involving the Same
The present disclosure generally provides complexes including a pharmaceutically active agent and a functionalized polymer, wherein the functionalized polymer includes repeat units, the repeat units including ionizable repeat units having at least one ionizable side group and/or ionizable end group, a plurality of the at least one ionizable groups forming non-covalent bonds with the pharmaceutically active agent. Polymers which may be used to form such complexes as well as methods of making and using the complexes and related compositions are also provided.
TREATMENT OF STAPHYLOCOCCUS RELATED DISEASES
The present invention relates to antibodies for treating or preventing infections of Staphylococcus genus bacteria and/or Staphylococcus genus bacteria-related diseases. Especially, the invention relates to S. intermedius group bacteria infections and diseases. Furthermore, the invention relates to respective pharmaceutical compositions and methods of manufacturing a medicament comprising anti-S. aureus alpha-hemolysin protein antibodies.
Autologous Cancer Vaccines
The invention relates to an autologous cancer vaccine and also to the method for producing same comprising the following steps: a) extracting the proteins contained in a serum or plasma sample obtained from a patient suffering from cancer; and b) bringing the proteins extracted in step a) into contact with particles of hydroxyapatite and/or tricalcium phosphate.
A COMBINATION OF PLASMA IMMUNOGLOBULIN AND ANTIGEN-SPECIFIC IMMUNOGLOBULIN FOR THE MODIFICATION OF THE IMMUNE SYSTEM AND THE TREATMENT OR PREVENTION OF ALLERGIC DISEASES
A method of use of plasma immunoglobulin, such as intramuscular immunoglobulin, in combination with polyclonal antigen-specific immunoglobulin in the treatment or prevention of allergic disease is provided. Also provided is a pharmaceutical composition including plasma immunoglobulin in combination with polyclonal antigen-specific immunoglobulin.
IgG STIMULATED REMYELINATION OF PERIPHERAL NERVES
The present invention is based on the discovery of polyclonal IgG's ability to promote Schwann cell maturation, differentiation, and myelin production. Methods for treating non-idiopathic, demyelinating peripheral neuropathies in mammals, where the neuropathy is not immune-mediated or infection-mediated, through the administration of polyclonal IgG are provided. Types of demyelinating peripheral neuropathies treatable with the present invention include peripheral nerve trauma and toxin-induced peripheral neuropathies. Alternatively, a composition of polyclonal IgGs can be applied directly to a peripheral nerve cell to induce maturation, differentiation into a myelinating state, and myelin expression or promote cell survival.
