FIBRIN-BINDING ANTIBODY AND PHARMACEUTICAL COMPOSITION CONTAINING ANTIBODY
The present invention provides an antibody that binds to fibrin and a pharmaceutical composition containing the antibody. According to the present invention, there is particularly provided a humanized antibody that binds to fibrin and a pharmaceutical composition containing the antibody.
FACTOR XI A2 DOMAIN-BINDING ANTIBODIES AND METHODS OF USE THEREOF
The present disclosure provides antibodies that bind to the A2 domain of Factor XI (FXI) and methods of using the same. According to certain embodiments, the antibodies are antagonist antibodies that inhibit blood clot formation via the intrinsic pathway without affecting hemostasis, as shown by their effect on prolonging aPTT without affecting PT. As such, these antagonist antibodies may be used to treat blood clotting diseases or disorders or treatment regimens that have clot formation as a risk factor, such as, but not limited to atrial fibrillation. In certain embodiments, the disclosure includes antibodies that bind FXI and mediate clot formation or thrombogenesis. The antibodies of the disclosure may be fully human, non-naturally occurring antibodies.

Antibodies for the prevention or the treatment of bleeding episodes
The invention relates to an isolated monoclonal antibody that specifically binds to the D4 domain of VWF, competes for binding to VWF D4 domain with ADAMTS13 and partially inhibits ADAMTS 13-mediated degradation of VWF. More particularly, the invention relates to an isolated monoclonal antibody comprising a heavy chain wherein the variable domain comprises at least one CDR having a sequence selected from the group consisting of SEQ ID NO: 3 for H-CDR1, SEQ ID NO: 4 for H-CDR2 and SEQ ID NO: 5 for H-CDR3 and a light chain wherein the variable domain comprises at least one CDR having a sequence selected from the group consisting of SEQ ID NO: 7 for L-CDR1, SEQ ID NO: 8 for L-CDR2 and SEQ ID NO: 9 for L-CDR3. Antibodies of the invention are presented to be useful in for the prevention or the treatment of bleeding episodes, such as bleeding episodes occurring in patients with aortic stenosis or patients with ventricular assist devices (VAD).

METHODS OF USING A BISPECIFIC ANTIBODY THAT RECOGNIZES COAGULATION FACTOR IX AND/OR ACTIVATED COAGULATION FACTOR IX AND COAGULATION FACTOR X AND/OR ACTIVATED COAGULATION FACTOR X
An objective of the present invention is to provide an effective pharmaceutical composition or a dosage regimen for preventing and/or treating bleeding, a disease accompanying bleeding, or a disease caused by bleeding. The inventors discovered that by administering a pharmaceutical composition comprising a bispecific antigen-binding molecule that recognizes (a) blood coagulation factor IX and/or activated blood coagulation factor IX and (b) blood coagulation factor X and/or activated blood coagulation factor X according to a given dosage regimen, bleeding, a disease accompanying bleeding, or a disease caused by bleeding can be prevented and/or treated more effectively.
