Abstract:
Methods of treating metabolic diseases and disorders using an antigen binding protein specific for the GIPR polypeptide are provided. In various embodiments the metabolic disease or disorder is type 2 diabetes, obesity, dyslipidemia, elevated glucose levels, elevated insulin levels and diabetic nephropathy. In certain embodiments the antigen binding protein is administered in combination with a GLP-1 receptor agonist.
Abstract:
Method of treating metabolic diseases and disorders using a composition comprising a GLP-l/GIPR antigen binding protein fusion protein are provided. In various embodiments the metabolic disease or disorder is type 2 diabetes, obesity, dyslipidemia, elevated glucose levels, elevated insulin levels and diabetic nephropathy. In certain embodiments the composition comprises the C-terminus of a GLP-1 analog fused to the N-terminus of the light chain variable or heavy chain variable region of an antibody or functional fragment thereof that binds GIPR, optionally with a linker in between.
Abstract:
Methods of treating metabolic diseases and disorders using a composition comprising an antigen binding protein specific for the GIPR polypeptide conjugated to a GLP-1 receptor agonist are provided. In various embodiments the metabolic disease or disorder is type 2 diabetes, obesity, dyslipidemia, elevated glucose levels, elevated insulin levels and diabetic nephropathy. In certain embodiments the composition comprises an antibody or functional fragment thereof comprising a cysteine at one or more conjugation site(s) wherein the GLP-1 receptor agonist is conjugated to the antibody or functional fragment thereof through the side-chain of the cysteine residue.
