20110002876 | Multimeric VLA-4 Antagonists Comprising Polymer Moieties - Disclosed are conjugates which bind VLA-4. Certain of these conjugates also inhibit leukocyte adhesion and, in particular, leukocyte adhesion mediated by VLA-4. Such conjugates are useful in the treatment of inflammatory diseases in a mammalian patient, e.g., human, such as asthma, Alzheimer's disease, atherosclerosis, AIDS dementia, diabetes, inflammatory bowel disease, rheumatoid arthritis, tissue transplantation, tumor metastasis and myocardial ischemia. The conjugates can also be administered for the treatment of inflammatory brain diseases such as multiple sclerosis. | 01-06-2011 |

The methods of the invention utilize conjugates comprising two or more α4β1 small molecule antagonists covalently attached to a biocompatible polymer. These methods of selectively inhibiting α4β1 may be used modulate both normal and pathological biological processes mediated at least in part through α4β1 activity. | 03-08-2012 |
20120177642 | METHODS OF TREATING INFLAMMATORY AND AUTOIMMUNE DISEASES WITH NATALIZUMAB - Natalizumab is a safe and efficacious treatment for inflammatory and autoimmune diseases, such as multiple sclerosis, Crohn's Disease, and rheumatoid arthritis. Chain swapping between natalizumab and IgG4 molecules acts to reduce the level of bivalent natalizumab present following administration of natalizumab, and thus to lower the activity of natalizumab in the patient. Differences in IgG4 levels across patients or within a single patient across time may change the pharmacokinetic profile of natalizumab. Patients with lower levels of IgG4 may experience higher nadir levels of natalizumab during a dosing period. Monitoring IgG4 and/or bivalent natalizumab levels, and determining a dose or dosage period based on the monitoring may improve the safety and/or efficacy of natalizumab therapy. | 07-12-2012 |
