| 20090155275 | MULTISPECIFIC EPITOPE BINDING PROTEINS AND USES THEREOF - The present invention relates to multispecific epitope binding proteins, methods of making, and uses thereof in the prevention, management, treatment or diagnosis of acute or chronic diseases. | 06-18-2009 |
| 20090169546 | HIGH AFFINITY ANTIBODIES AGAINST HMGB1 AND METHODS OF USE THEREOF - Compositions and methods are disclosed for inhibiting the release of a proinflammatory cytokine from a vertebrate cell, and for inhibiting an inflammatory cytokine cascade in a patient. The compositions comprise, for example, high affinity antibodies that specifically bind HMG1 and antigenic fragments thereof. The high affinity antibodies of the present invention and pharmaceutical compositions comprising the same are useful for many purposes, for example, as therapeutics against a wide range of inflammatory diseases and disorders such as sepsis, rheumatoid arthritis, peritonitis, Crohn s disease, reperfusion injury, septicemia, endotoxic shock, cystic fibrosis, endocarditis, psoriasis, psoriatic arthritis, arthritis, anaphylactic shock, organ ischemia, reperfusion injury, and allograft rejection. In addition, the high affinity antibodies of the present inventions are useful as diagnostic antibodies. | 07-02-2009 |

| 20100203045 | EPH RECEPTOR Fc VARIANTS WITH ENHANCED ANTIBODY DEPENDENT CELL-MEDIATED CYTOTOXICITY ACTIVITY - The present invention relates to novel Fc variants that immuno-specifically bind to an Eph receptor. The Fc variants comprise a binding region that immunospecifically binds to an Eph receptor and an Fc region that further comprises at least one novel amino acid residue which may provide for enhanced effector function. More specifically, this invention provides Fc variants that have modified binding affinity to one or more Fc ligand (e.g., FcγR, C1q). Additionally, the Fc variants have altered antibody-dependent cell-mediated cytotoxicity (ADCC) and/or complement dependent cytotoxicity (CDC) activity. The invention further provides methods and protocols for the application of said Fc variants that immunospecifically bind to an Eph receptor, particularly for therapeutic purposes. | 08-12-2010 |
| 20100233173 | MULTISPECIFIC EPITOPE BINDING PROTEINS AND USES THEREOF - The present invention relates to multispecific epitope binding proteins, methods of making, and uses thereof in the prevention, management, treatment or diagnosis of acute or chronic diseases. | 09-16-2010 |
| 20100331208 | Cell Display Of Antibody Libraries - The present invention relates to a viral vector encoding for a library of antibodies or antibody fragments that are displayed on the cell membrane when expressed in a cell. The present invention provides cells comprising the viral vector nucleic acids and methods of screening the libraries for antibodies or antibody fragments with desired characteristics. | 12-30-2010 |
| 20110033378 | Cysteine Engineered Antibodies For Site-Specific Conjugation - Cysteine engineered antibodies useful for the site-specific conjugation to a variety of agents are provided. Methods for the design, preparation, screening, selection and use of such antibodies are also provided. | 02-10-2011 |
| 20110059100 | C/CLP Antagonists And Methods Of Use Thereof - The invention relates to the novel discovery that antagonizing a C/CLP can be useful for the treatment of diseases associated with the upregulation of one or more C/CLP such as Th2-driven and/or IL-13 mediated inflammatory diseases. Accordingly the present invention provides C/CLP antagonists and also provides compositions and methods for the prevention, management, treatment or amelioration of an inflammatory condition associated with the upregulation of a C/CLP or one or more symptoms thereof and/or the inhibition of IL-13 mediated inflammation. | 03-10-2011 |
| 20110076752 | ANTIBODY LIBRARY DISPLAY BY YEAST CELL PLASMA MEMBRANE - The present invention relates to antibodies or antibody fragments that may be displayed on the extracellular surface of the plasma membrane when expressed in a host cell. The present invention provides libraries comprising a plurality of plasma membrane displayed antibodies and methods of screening the libraries for antibodies or antibody fragments with desired characteristics. | 03-31-2011 |
