| 20080274055 | Framework Residue Substituted Humanized Col-1 Antibodies and Their Use - The present disclosure provides humanized COL-1 monoclonal antibodies that retain CEA binding affinity, compared to a parent antibody. Also disclosed herein are humanized COL-1 monoclonal antibodies that have reduced immunogenicity, compared to a parent antibody. The disclosed humanized COL-1 antibodies include substitution of framework residues with residues from the corresponding positions of a homologous human sequence. In several embodiments, methods are disclosed for the use of a humanized COL-1 antibody in the detection or treatment of a CEA-expressing tumor or cell in a subject. Also disclosed is a kit including the humanized COL-1 antibodies described herein. | 11-06-2008 |
| 20090004208 | Method for designing hypoallergenic molecules for use in allergy desensitization with lessened chance of anaphylaxis, or as vaccines against allergic reactions - A unique method is disclosed for identifying and replacing surface amino acid residues of a protein allergen that reduces the antigenicity of its dominant IgE epitopes. The method is useful in the design of hypoallergenic molecules for use in allergy desensitization with lessened chance of anaphylaxis, or as vaccines against allergic reactions. | 01-01-2009 |
| 20090162383 | Method for designing vaccines against constantly mutating pathogens - A unique method is disclosed for identifying and replacing surface amino acid residues of a protein antigen that reduces the antigenicity of the putative immunodominant epitopes of the antigen and makes all the accessible regions of the molecule essentially antigenically equivalent, so that the antibody response will be directed against more parts of the molecule and not mainly against the erstwhile immunodominant epitopes. The method will simultaneously change the antigenicity of the molecule and preserve its structure. The method is useful in the design of molecules useful for immunization, for example, as vaccines, or for the generation of therapeutic antibodies, against constantly mutating pathogens. It is also useful in the design of molecules useful for immunization against pathogens that had been intentionally mutated so as to render those pathogens able to infect erstwhile immune individuals. | 06-25-2009 |
| 20090197330 | ANTI-CD20 MONOCLONAL ANTIBODY - Disclosed is a monoclonal antibody capable of inducing a specific biological reaction through the binding of the monoclonal antibody to a CD20 antigen on the surface of a cell. A monoclonal antibody having a high binding affinity to an extracellular epitope of a CD20 antigen and also having biological activities including a cell growth inhibitory activity is cloned. The monoclonal antibody is chimerized or humanized to develop a therapeutic agent for a disease in which B cells are involved. | 08-06-2009 |
| 20090311780 | MINIMALLY IMMUNOGENIC VARIANTS OF SDR-GRAFTED HUMANIZED ANTIBODY CC49 AND THEIR USE - Humanized anti-TAG-72 CC49 monoclonal antibodies are disclosed herein. The antibodies include a light chain Complementarity Determining Region (L-CDR)1, a L-CDR2, and a L-CDR3; and a heavy chain Complementarity Determining Region (H-CDR)1, a H-CDR2, and a H-CDR3 from humanized antibody HuCC49V10. The L-CDR1, L-CDR2, L-CDR3 are within a HuCC49V10 light chain framework region that includes the corresponding amino acid from LEN at position 5, 19, 21, and 106 in the light chain. The H-CDR1, H-CDR2, and H-CDR3 are within a heavy chain HuCC49V10 framework comprising a human 21/28′ CL residue at positions 20, 38, 48, 66, 67, 69, and 80 in the heavy chain. These humanized CC49 antibodies retain binding affinity for TAG-72 and have reduced immunogenicity, as compared to a parental HuCC49V10 antibody. Methods are disclosed herein for using these antibodies in the treatment or diagnosis of a tumor, such as a carcinoma, expressing TAG-72. | 12-17-2009 |
| 20090317903 | HUMANIZED ANTI-TAG 72 CC49 FOR DIAGNOSIS AND THERAPY OF HUMAN TUMORS - The present disclosure provides humanized CC49 monoclonal antibodies that bind TAG-72 with high binding affinity and that are minimally immunogenic. In one embodiment, a humanized CC49 antibody includes a non-conservative amino acid substitution in a light chain complementarity determining region 3 of the CC49 antibody. In a further embodiment, the humanized CC49 antibody includes a non-conservative substitution of a first residue in a light chain complementarity determining region 3 and a substitution of a second residue in a complementarity determining region of the humanized CC49 antibody. In several of the embodiments, methods are disclosed for the use of a humanized CC49 antibody in the detection or treatment of a tumor in a subject. Also disclosed is a kit including the humanized CC49 antibody described herein. | 12-24-2009 |
| 20100303720 | VARIANTS OF HUMANIZED ANTI-CARCINOMA MAb CC49 - The invention is directed towards mouse-human chimeric variants of CC49 monoclonal antibodies with minimal murine content. A first aspect of the invention provides CDR variants of humanized monoclonal antibody (HuCC49) in which less than all six (three heavy chain and three light chain) Complementarity Determining | 12-02-2010 |

Also disclosed herein are humanized COL-1 monoclonal antibodies that have reduced immunogenicity, compared to a parent antibody. The disclosed humanized COL-1 antibodies include substitution of framework residues with residues from the corresponding positions of a homologous human sequence. In several embodiments, methods are disclosed for the use of a humanized COL-1 antibody in the detection or treatment of a CEA-expressing tumor or cell in a subject. Also disclosed is a kit including the humanized COL-1 antibodies described herein. | 03-03-2011 |
| 20110159525 | METHODS TO DETERMINE IMMUNOGENICITY OF HUMANIZED ANTI-TAG 72 CC49 ANTIBODIES - The present disclosure provides humanized CC49 monoclonal antibodies that bind TAG-72 with high binding affinity and that are minimally immunogenic. In one embodiment, a humanized CC49 antibody includes a non-conservative amino acid substitution in a light chain complementarity determining region 3 of the CC49 antibody. In a further embodiment, the humanized CC49 antibody includes a non-conservative substitution of a first residue in a light chain complementarity determining region 3 and a substitution of a second residue in a complementarity determining region of the humanized CC49 antibody.
