Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20080240893HIGH CAPACITY PICK AND PLACE PROCESS - A method of accurately placing an object with a pick and place machine provides raw material. A desired surface topography is created in the raw material. The raw material is diced into parts using a bevel cut so that each of the parts has bevel surfaces. A fixture is provided that has a plurality of spaced cavities with each cavity having bevel surfaces constructed and arranged to mate with the bevel surfaces of an associated part. A pick and place machine picks and places each part into an associated cavity such that the bevel surfaces of the part mates with the bevel surfaces of the cavity.10-02-2008

20100008929HUMAN MONOCLONAL ANTIBODIES TO EPIDERMAL GROWTH FACTOR RECEPTOR (EGFR) - Isolated human monoclonal antibodies which specifically bind to human EGFR, and related antibody-based compositions and molecules, are disclosed. The human antibodies can be produced by a transfectoma or in a non-human transgenic animal, e.g., a transgenic mouse, capable of producing multiple isotypes of human monoclonal antibodies by undergoing V-D-J recombination and isotype switching. Also disclosed are pharmaceutical compositions comprising the human antibodies, non-human transgenic animals and hybridomas which produce the human antibodies, and therapeutic and diagnostic methods for using the human antibodies.01-14-2010
20100172900Human Monoclonal Antibodies to BTLA And Methods of Use - The present disclosure provides isolated monoclonal antibodies, particularly human monoclonal antibodies that specifically bind to BTLA with high affinity. Nucleic acid molecules encoding the antibodies of the disclosure, expression vectors, host cells and methods for expressing the antibodies of the disclosure are also provided. Immunoconjugates, bispecific molecules and pharmaceutical compositions comprising the antibodies of the disclosure are also provided. The disclosure also provides methods for detecting BTLA, as well as methods for treating various diseases, including cancer and infectious diseases, using anti-BTLA antibodies.07-08-2010

20110081354ANTI-CTLA-4 ANTIBODIES WITH REDUCED BLOCKING OF BINDING OF CTLA-4 TO B7 AND USES THEREOF - The present invention provides isolated monoclonal antibodies that bind to CTLA-4 and that are capable of increasing the response of T cells to antigenic stimulation in vivo yet the antibodies do not substantially block the binding of CTLA-4 to B7 ligands (e.g., B7-1 and B7-2) in vitro. Thus, the antibodies of the invention demonstrate that is it possible to separate the immunostimulatory function of anti-CTLA-4 antibodies from their ability to block the binding of B7 ligands. Immunoconjugates, bispecific molecules and pharmaceutical compositions comprising the antibodies of the invention are also provided. The invention also provides methods for increasing the response of T cells to antigenic stimulation using the antibodies of the invention, including methods for treating cancer using the antibodies of the invention.04-07-2011

20090068192Fully human antibodies against human 4-1BB - Fully human antibodies and antigen-binding portions thereof that bind to human 4-1BB and that allow binding of human 4-1BB to a human 4-1BB ligand. In one aspect, the antibody is an IgG4 antibody. Also provided is a method for treating a disease in a subject comprising administering a therapeutically effective amount of the antibody to said subject.03-12-2009
20100047244Human CTLA-4 Antibodies and Their Uses - The present invention provides novel human sequence antibodies against human CTLA-4 and methods of treating human diseases, infections and other conditions using these antibodies.02-25-2010
20100183621Fully human antibodies against human 4-1BB - Fully human antibodies and antigen-binding portions thereof that bind to human 4-1BB and that allow binding of human 4-1BB to a human 4-1BB ligand. In one aspect, the antibody is an IgG4 antibody. Also provided is a method for treating a disease in a subject comprising administering a therapeutically effective amount of the antibody to said subject.07-22-2010
20110003319Transgenic Trasnchromosomal Rodents for Making Human Antibodies - The present invention provides novel transgenic nonhuman mammals capable of producing human sequence antibodies, as well as methods of producing and using these antibodies.01-06-2011

20100125932MARTIAL ARTS STUDENT IDENTIFICATION SYSTEM - A martial arts student identification system is disclosed. The ID card is removably mounted to the belt. The ID card can be removed from the belt if it needs to be washed, or for when the student advances to a new belt. In one embodiment, a hook-and-loop fastener, such as VELCRO, is used to affix the ID card to the belt.05-27-2010
