Abstract:
Isolated human monoclonal antibodies which bind to and inhibit human CD25, and related antibody-based compositions and molecules, are disclosed. The human antibodies can be produced by a hybridoma, a transfectoma or in a nonhuman 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, nonhuman transgenic animals, hybridomas and transfectomas which produce the human antibodies, and therapeutic and diagnostic methods for using the human antibodies.
Abstract:
Isolated human monoclonal antibodies which bind to human TF and related antibody-based compositions and molecules, are disclosed. Also disclosed are pharmaceutical compositions comprising the antibodies, and therapeutic and diagnostic methods for using the antibodies.
Abstract:
The invention relates to novel methods for the treatment of tumors, comprising administration of a bispecific antibody or a combination of two or more non-cross-blocking antibodies that recognize the same target antigen or antigenic complex. In particular, the invention relates to a method for inducing complement-mediated cell killing in the treatment of a tumor, said method comprising combined administration, to a human being in need thereof, of a first antibody and a second antibody, wherein—said first antibody binds EGFR, —said second antibody binds EGFR, —said first and second antibody are non-cross-blocking, and—the dosage regimen is such that CDC is obtained at the tumor site.
Abstract:
The invention relates to novel non-human transgenic animals, which upon antigenic stimulation are capable of producing monovalent antibodies binding to a selected antigen, modified heavy chain transgenes, methods for producing the non-human transgenic animals, methods for immunizing the non-human transgenic animals for as well as monovalent antibodies obtainable by such immunization methods.
Abstract:
Isolated human monoclonal antibodies which bind to human CD38, and related antibody-based compositions and molecules, are disclosed. Also disclosed are pharmaceutical compositions comprising the human antibodies, and therapeutic and diagnostic methods for using the human antibodies.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a method for the treatment of a disease susceptible to anti-EGFR treatment, comprising the step of administering, to a human being in nee thereof, a combination of an anti-EGFR agent and an anti-neutrophil-chemoattracta agent, wherein said anti-neutrophil-chemoattractant agent is administered in a dosage regimen that is sufficient to reduce one or more undesired dermatological side-effects the anti-EGFR agent. In one embodiment, the anti-EGFR agent is an anti-EGF antibody and the anti-neutrophil-chemoattractant agent is an anti-IL-8 antibody.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a peptide, such as an antibody, capable of binding to CD4 and use thereof for the mediation of radiation treatment of a clinical condition. The radiation treatment may for instance by treatment with PUVA.
Abstract:
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.
Abstract:
Methods for treating disorders involving monocytic activity by administering IL-15 antagonists that induce apoptosis of monocytes are disclosed.
