C07K2317/76
ANTIBODIES AGAINST NOTCH 3
The present disclosure relates to antibodies or fragments thereof that target at least one conformational epitope of a Notch 3 or mutant Notch 3 receptor; and compositions and methods of use thereof.
HUMAN MONOCLONAL ANTIBODIES ENDOWED WITH STRONG NEUTRALIZING ACTIVITY AGAINST HSV-1 AND HSV-2
The present invention is in the field of monoclonal antibodies suitable for passive immunotherapy of Herpes Simplex Virus infections and relates to human monoclonal antibodies or fragments of said antibodies, which bind and neutralize HSV-1 and HSV-2, and their use in the prophylaxis or treatment of HSV-1 or HSV-2-associated diseases.
ANTI-C5 ANTIBODIES HAVING IMPROVED PHARMACOKINETICS
The disclosure provides antibodies that are useful for, among other things, inhibiting terminal complement (e.g., the assembly and/or activity of the C5b-9 TCC) and C5a anaphylatoxin-mediated inflammation and, thus, treating complement-associated disorders. The antibodies have a number of improved properties relative to eculizumab, including, e.g., increased serum half-life in a human.
INHIBITION OF PRMT5 TO TREAT MTAP-DEFICIENCY-RELATED DISEASES
The invention provides novel personalized therapies, kits, transmittable forms of information and methods for use in treating patients having cancer, wherein the cancer is MTAP-deficient and/or MTA-accumulating and thus amenable to therapeutic treatment with a PRMT5 inhibitor. Kits, methods of screening for candidate PRMT5 inhibitors, and associated methods of treatment are also provided.
ANTI-CLL-1 ANTIBODIES AND IMMUNOCONJUGATES
The invention provides anti-CLL-1 antibodies and immunoconjugates and methods of using the same.
MODULATING ADIPOSE TISSUE AND ADIPOGENESIS
The invention relates to the field of obesity and related metabolic diseases. More specifically, the invention relates to methods of reducing aggrecanase activity or antigen in mammals in order to enhance brown adipose tissue (BAT) development, to promote conversion of white adipose tissue (WAT) into BAT in vivo, and to limit triglyceride accumulation and steatosis in the liver. The invention also relates to a strategy of neutralization or depletion of ADAMTS5 as a strategy to inhibit adipogenesis and more specifically, the invention relates to a method of reducing aggracanase-2 (ADAMTS5, A Disintegrin and Metalloproteinase with Thrombospondin motif 1; member 5) antigen and/or activity in mammals in order to impair differentiation of precursor cells into mature adipocytes (i.e., adipogenesis).
LYSOSOMAL TARGETING AND USES THEREOF
The invention provides compositions and methods for effective lysosomal targeting mediated by PCSK9. In particular, the compositions and methods provided by the invention may be used to treat lysosomal storage diseases such as Pompe Disease and Sanfilippo Syndrome Type B, and they may be used for targeting lysosomal enzymes to the various muscles of the human body.
Liquid pharmaceutical composition
The present invention relates to novel liquid pharmaceutical compositions of adalimumab, which include adalimumab or a biosimilar thereof, an acetate buffering agent/system such as sodium acetate/acetic acid, and a sugar stabiliser such as trehalose. Such a combination of components furnishes formulations having a stability (e.g. on storage and when exposed to stress) which is comparable to or an improvement upon those known in the art, and with fewer ingredients. Such advances will help adalimumab treatments to become more widely available at lower cost, and prolong the viability of pre-loaded delivery devices (e.g. pre-filled syringes) to reduce unnecessary waste of the drug.
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.
ADJUVANT COMPOSITION CONTAINING AT LEAST ONE INFLUENZA VIRUS NEUTRALIZING AND BINDING MOLECULE AND VACCINE COMPOSITION CONTAINING SAME
This invention relates to an adjuvant composition containing at least one binding molecule for neutralizing influenza virus and a vaccine composition containing the same. The composition containing at least one binding molecule for neutralizing influenza virus is capable of increasing the effects of a vaccine, and can thus be used as an adjuvant, which increases an immune response upon vaccine administration, and is very useful in the prevention of diseases caused by viruses.
