The present disclosure is directed to human monoclonal IgE antibodies, and IgG antibodies engineered therefrom. Such engineered antibodies can be used to blunt pathologic IgE responses in subjects, such as in the treatment or prevention of allergies.

The invention provides improved methods for detecting anti-BCMA CAR expression on T cells.

The present invention concerns methods for treating progressive multiple sclerosis (MS) in a patient, and an article of manufacture with instructions for such use.

The present invention is directed to an anti-idiotype antibody binding to the complementary determining region of an antibody against the amyloid peptide. In one embodiment said antibody binds to the same epitope or an overlapping epitope as the antibody obtainable from the cell line DSM ACC2939. Also reported is an immunoassay for the determination of an antibody against the amyloid peptide and for determination of an anti-idiotype antibody binding to an antibody against the amyloid peptide.

This invention provides compositions and methods to treat a condition or disease without the use of exogenous targeting sequences or chemical compositions. The present invention relates to single-domain antibodies (sdAbs), proteins and polypeptides comprising the sdAbs that are directed against intracellular components that cause a condition or disease. The invention also includes nucleic acids encoding the sdAbs, proteins and polypeptides, and compositions comprising the sdAbs. The invention includes the use of the compositions, sdAbs, and nucleic acids encoding the sdAbs for prophylactic, therapeutic or diagnostic purposes.

Disclosed are novel biomarkers and methods related to diagnostic tests for the detection and characterization of inflammatory bowel diseases, such as Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis. In particular, the instant invention relates to novel biomarkers and methods of using such biomarkers to predict disease behavior and severity, to differentiate among disease types, and to optimize selection of treatment options in individuals suspected of having an inflammatory bowel disease.

The present invention concerns methods for treating progressive multiple sclerosis (MS) in a patient, and an article of manufacture with instructions for such use.

Isolated antigen binding molecules that specifically bind to an anti-CD19 scFv comprising SEQ ID NO: 1 are provided. The antigen binding molecules can be used in the methods provided herein.

A lateral flow immunoassay for the detection of anti-drug antibodies against a biological drug includes a membrane having a capture area, a sample application area, a flow path from the sample application area to the capture area, and a conjugate area located in the flow path. The conjugate area has said biological drug detectably labeled and the capture area has said biological drug immobilized thereto.

Herein is reported a method for selecting an antibody with a systematic clearance in cynomolgus monkeys of less than 8 mL/kg/day comprising the steps of measuring the retention time of the antibody on performing an FcRn affinity chromatography with a positive linear pH gradient and on a heparin affinity chromatography with a positive linear conductivity/salt gradient, and selecting an antibody that has a relative retention time on the FcRn affinity chromatography column is less than 1.78 times the retention time difference between peaks 2 and 3 the retention time of preparation of an oxidized anti-Her3 antibody of SEQ ID NO: 03 and 04, and a relative retention time on the heparin affinity chromatography column is less than 0.87 times the retention time of an anti-pTau antibody of SEQ ID NO: 01 and 02.
