Patent classifications
G01N33/6869
HUMAN MONOCLONAL ANTIBODIES AGAINST INTERLEUKIN 8 (IL-8)
Isolated human monoclonal antibodies which bind to IL-8 (e.g., human IL-8) are disclosed. The human antibodies can be produced in a hybridoma, transfectoma or in a non-human transgenic animal, e.g., a transgenic mouse, capable of producing multiple isotypes of human monoclonal antibodies by undergoing V-D-J recombination and isotype switching. Also disclosed are pharmaceutical compositions comprising the human antibodies, non-human transgenic animals, hybridomas, and transfectomas which produce the human antibodies, and therapeutic and diagnostic methods for using the human antibodies.
ANTI-IL-27 ANTIBODIES AND USES THEREOF
The present disclosure relates to anti-IL-27 antibodies, and antigen-binding portions thereof. The disclosure also relates to methods for treating or ameliorating one or more symptoms of a disease, such as cancer, by administering the antibodies or antigen-binding portion thereof. The disclosure also relates to methods for detecting IL-27 in, for example, a subject or a sample.
Combination therapy with anti-IL-8 antibodies and anti-PD-1 antibodies for treating cancer
Provided herein are methods for the clinical treatment of tumors (e.g., advanced solid tumors) in patients having certain levels of serum IL-8 using an anti-IL-8 antibody in combination with an anti-PD-1 antibody.
LABEL-FREE FOOD ANALYSIS AND MOLECULAR DETECTION
The invention generally relates to methods, reagents, and substrates for detecting target analytes, especially spectroscopic techniques such as laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) for use in food authentication and molecular detection (e.g., when combined with later flow immunoassays (LFIA).
MITIGATION AND REVERSAL OF INTESTINAL FIBROSIS AND INFLAMMATION BY INHIBITION OF TL1A FUNCTION
The invention relates to methods of treating fibrosis and inflammatory bowel disease. In one embodiment, the present invention treats gut inflammation by administering a therapeutically effective dosage of TL1A inhibitors and/or DR3 inhibitors to an individual. In another embodiment, the present invention provides a method of reversing tissue fibrosis in an individual by inhibiting TL1A-DR3 signaling function.
IL-4R AS A BIOMARKER IN CANCER
Methods for using the human interleukin-4 receptor (IL-4) as a biomarker for determining patent populations for treatment, predicting disease treatment efficacy, and predicting disease treatment prognosis in a variety of cancers, in particular glioblastoma and recurrent glioblastoma.
METHODS FOR PREDICTION OF ANTI-TNF ALPHA DRUG LEVELS AND AUTOANTIBODY FORMATION
In some aspects, the present invention provides methods for predicting whether a subject will develop autoantibodies to an anti-TNFα drug during the course of anti-TNFα drug therapy. In other aspects, the present invention provides methods for predicting the level of an anti-TNFα drug in a subject during the course of anti-TNFα drug therapy. Systems for predicting anti-TNFα drug levels and the likelihood of autoantibody formation during the course of anti-TNFα drug therapy are also provided herein. The present invention further provides methods for predicting a clinical outcome (e.g., endoscopic response) of a subject on anti-TNFα drug therapy.
COMPOSITIONS AND METHODS FOR TREATING AGE-RELATED DIABETES AND RELATED DISORDERS
The invention features compositions and methods treating or preventing for age-related insulin resistance, type 2 diabetes and related disorders. The method involves depleting fTreg cells with an anti-ST2 antibody to decrease age-related fTreg accumulation and restore insulin sensitivity, thereby treating age-related insulin resistance, type 2 diabetes and related disorders.
METHODS OF TREATING OR PREVENTING SERIOUS SYMPTOMS FROM COVID-19 INFECTION
Provided herein are methods for reducing risk of severe symptoms and outcomes associated with Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) and Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection by measuring levels of interleukin 6 (IL-6), IL-8, IL-22, and serum ferritin in a subject. Also provided are methods for treating a subject exposed to or at elevated risk of expose to SARS-CoV-2 based on levels of IL-6, IL-8, IL-22, and ferritin in the serum of the subject.
Therapeutic intervention for osteoporosis
The present invention discloses a novel therapeutic intervention for osteoporosis. The present invention discloses that Interleukin-3 (IL-3) can be utilized as a therapeutic intervention against osteoporosis and for regulating bone homeostasis. The present invention also provides a method for determining the pre-disposition of a subject for osteoporosis by measuring the RANKL/OPG level.
