| 20120129185 | METHODS AND COMPOSITIONS FOR DIAGNOSING ANKYLOSING SPONDYLITIS USING BIOMARKERS - The invention provides a method for determining the efficacy of a TNFα inhibitor, such as a TNFα antibody, or an antigen-binding portion thereof, for treating ankylosing spondylitis (AS), using a collagen degradation biomarker and/or a synovitis biomarker. | 05-24-2012 |
| 20110313398 | AUTOMATIC INJECTION DEVICES - An injection device comprises a syringe extendible against a spring bias from a retracted position in a housing to a projecting injecting position. A spring biased plunger has collapsible elbows which, when the plunger is released, initially engage the end of the syringe to drive it to the projecting position, whereupon arresting of the syringe movement causes the elbows to collapse inside the syringe to allow the plunger to engage and drive the bung. | 12-22-2011 |
| 20110054414 | Automatic Injection Device - Exemplary embodiments provide a syringe plunger formed of a polymeric material. The syringe plunger includes a pressurizer disposed at a proximal end, and a distal end bifurcated into a first plunger arm having a first conical surface and a second conical surface, and a second plunger arm having a first conical surface and a second conical surface. The distal end includes a first contact surface defined by the first conical surface of the first plunger arm and the first conical surface of the second plunger arm, the first contact surface configured to initially contact a firing engagement mechanism, the first contact surface disposed at a first angle of between about 40° and about 80° relative to a longitudinal axis of the syringe plunger. The distal end also includes a second contact surface defined by the second conical surface of the first plunger arm and the second conical surface of the second plunger arm, the second contact surface configured to contact the firing engagement mechanism subsequent to contact by the first contact surface. | 03-03-2011 |
| 20100278822 | STABLE HIGH PROTEIN CONCENTRATION FORMULATIONS OF HUMAN ANTI-TNF-ALPHA-ANTIBODIES - The invention provides a liquid pharmaceutical formulation which does not include NaCl and comprises more than 20 mg of a polyol and at least about 100 mg/mL of a human anti-TNF-alpha antibody, or antigen-binding portion thereof. The invention provides a high concentration antibody formulation having long-term stability and advantageous characteristics for subcutaneous administration. | 11-04-2010 |
| 20100016557 | HUMAN ANTIBODIES THAT BIND HUMAN TNFalpha - Human antibodies, preferably recombinant human antibodies, that specifically bind to human tumor necrosis factor α (hTNFα) are disclosed. These antibodies have high affinity for hTNFα (e.g., K | 01-21-2010 |
