Abstract:
The present disclosure provides methods of evaluating a subject, e.g., a subject at risk for or suffering from a pKal-mediated or bradykinin-mediated disorder, based on values (e.g., percentages) of intact and/or cleaved kininogen in a sample of the subject. Provided methods permit analysis of patients with plasma kallikrein-mediated angioedema (KMA), or other diseases mediated by pKal useful in the evaluation and treatment. Such methods can involve the use of a detection agent that preferentially binds cleaved kininogen or intact kininogen.
Abstract:
Disclosed herein are anti-Factor XIIa antibodies and methods of using such for treating diseases associated with Factor XII, including diseases associated with contact system activation, plasma prekallikrein signaling (e.g., hereditary angioedema), and ocular diseases.
Abstract:
Disclosed herein are compositions comprising one or more antibodies that specifically bind active plasma kallikrein (e.g., human plasma kallikrein) and methods of using such compositions for the treatment of retinal diseases, such as diabetic macular edema.
Abstract:
Provided herein are methods and kits for analyzing a biological sample obtained from a subject having, suspected of having, or being at risk for a disease associated with the contact activation system.
Abstract:
Methods, kits and compositions for diagnosing and treating autoimmue diseases such as rheumatiodi arthritis, Crohn's disease, and ulcerative colitis.
Abstract:
Disclosed herein are anti-Factor Xlla antibodies and methods of using such for treating diseases associated with Factor XII, including diseases associated with contact system activation, plasma prekallikrein signaling (e.g., hereditary angioedema), and ocular diseases.
