    摘要: The invention relates to methods and kits for assessing the risk, for an individual, of developing an adverse event upon treatment with a therapeutic antibody which is capable of Fab-arm exchange, said method comprising the steps of: a) providing a sample from an individual who is a candidate for treatment with said therapeutic antibody, b) assaying said sample for the presence of circulating IgG4 antibodies that binds an antigen known or suspected to be associated with a causative agent of said adverse event, and c) assessing, on the basis of the outcome of the assay of step b), the risk that the individual will develop said adverse event upon treatment with the therapeutic antibody, wherein the risk of development of said adverse event increases with increased level of said circulating IgG4 antibodies.

    摘要: Use of a non-human mammalian disease model, wherein the non-human mammal has been implanted with human synovial tissue or other human inflamed tissue containing anti-CCP (cyclic citrullinated peptide) antibody producing cells for (i) analyzing cellular processes in a disease associated with anti-CCP antibodies in such human synovial tissue or other human inflamed tissue, (ii) studying the role of anti-CCP antibodies in the induction and progression of a disease associated with anti-CCP antibodies, (iii) testing the efficacy of a therapeutic agent for the prevention or treatment of a disease associated with anti-CCP antibodies, and (iv) identifying a therapeutic agent useful for the prevention or treatment of a disease associated with anti-CCP antibodies. In one embodiment the non-human mammalian disease model is a mouse, such as a SCID mouse, and the disease associated with anti-CCP antibodies is arthritis, such as RA (rheumatoid arthritis).
