摘要:
The present invention relates to antibodies and polypeptides useful in blocking the binding of antibodies to anti-tissue factor, decreasing the activity of the anti-tissue factor antibodies and/or neutralizing the activity of an anti-tissue factor antibody. The present invention also relates to nucleic acids encoding the antibodies and polypeptides and compositions comprising the antibodies or polypeptides or nucleic acid molecules. The present invention provides methods of treating a hypercoagulable state or an inflammatory disease using the antibodies and polypeptides of this invention and other methods of using said antibodies and polypeptides.
摘要:
The present invention concerns polypeptides comprising a variant Fc region. More particularly, the present invention concerns Fc region-containing polypeptides that have altered effector function as a consequence of one or more amino acid modifications in the Fc region thereof.
摘要:
Provided are methods for treating inflammatory diseases in a patient comprising administering to the patient an effective amount of a conjugate consisting essentially of one or more antibody fragments covalently attached to one or more nonproteinaceous polymer molecules, wherein at least one antibody fragment comprises an antigen binding site that binds to human IL-8, and wherein the apparent size of the conjugate is at least about 500 kD.
摘要:
The present invention is directed to novel chimeric VEGF receptor proteins comprising amino acid sequences derived from the vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) receptors flt-1 and KDR, including the murine homologue to the human KDR receptor FLK-1, wherein said chimeric VEGF receptor proteins bind to VEGF and antagonize the endothelial cell proliferative and angiogenic activity thereof. The present invention is also directed to nucleic acids and expression vectors encoding these chimeric VEGF receptor proteins, host cells harboring such expression vectors, pharmaceutically acceptable compositions comprising such proteins, methods of preparing such proteins and to methods utilizing such proteins for the treatment of conditions associated with undesired vascularization.
