    摘要: Provided are antibodies and antigen-binding fragments thereof that bind specifically to human complement factor C2 and are capable of inhibiting activation of the classical and lectin pathways of the complement system. The antibodies and antigen-binding fragment exhibit improved manufacturability, pharmacokinetics, and antigen sweeping. Also provided are pharmaceutical compositions comprising the antibodies and antigen-binding fragments, nucleic acids and vectors encoding the antibodies and antigen-binding fragments, host cells comprising the nucleic acids or vectors, and methods of making and using the antibodies and antigen-binding fragments. The antibodies and antigen-binding fragments can be used to inhibit the classical pathway of complement activation in a subject, e.g., a human. The antibodies and antigen-binding fragments can also be used to inhibit the lectin pathway of complement activation in a subject, e.g., a human.

    摘要: The present invention relates to multispecific antibodies, for example bispecific antibodies, and methods for the isolation or purification of the same. The antibodies of the invention comprise first and second heavy chain-light chain pairings wherein each pairing comprises a distinct selective recognition site including one or more amino acid residues contributed from the heavy chain and the light chain of the pairing. The first and second selective recognition sites differ by at least one amino acid residue and can be differentially bound by first and second selective recognition agents according to the methods of the invention. Such methods facilitate the production of antibody preparations enriched for multispecific antibodies having the correct functional heavy chain-light chain pairings.

    摘要: Methods for preparing engineered antibodies exhibiting improved pH-dependent antigen binding are disclosed. The methods are based on introduction of histidine residues at a subset of defined amino acid positions within the antibody CDRs. The set of amino acid positions selected for histidine substitution is derived from a heat-map of histidine occurrence within the CDRs of functional antibodies from a natural antibody repertoire. The methods provide a simpler and less time-consuming approach to the identification of pH-dependent antibody variants.
