Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20090035298METHODS TO TREAT ALZHEIMER'S DISEASE OR OTHER AMYLOID BETA ACCUMULATION ASSOCIATED DISORDERS - The present invention provides methods for treating amyloid-beta accumulation-associated disorders, such as Alzheimer's disease. The methods comprise modulating the concentration of amyloid-beta in the brain interstitial fluid. In particular, the methods comprise modulating the activity of corticotrophin-releasing factor (CRF), which in turn modulates the concentration of amyloid-beta.02-05-2009
20090142766METHODS FOR MEASURING THE METABOLISM OF CNS DERIVED BIOMOLECULES IN VIVO - The present invention provides methods for measuring the metabolism of a central nervous system derived biomolecule implicated in a neurological and neurodegenerative disease or disorder. In particular, the method comprises measuring the in vivo metabolism of the biomolecule in the central nervous system of a subject. Also provided is a method for determining whether a therapeutic agent affects the in vivo metabolism of a central nervous system derived biomolecule.06-04-2009
20090263829ALZHEIMER'S DISEASE BIOMARKERS AND METHODS OF USE - The invention encompasses biomarkers for AD, a method for detecting AD, a method of monitoring AD, and a kit for quantifying biomarkers for AD.10-22-2009
20090264355METHODS TO TREAT ALZHEIMER'S DISEASE OR OTHER DISORDERS MEDIATED BY AMYLOID-BETA ACCUMULATION IN A SUBJECT - The invention provides methods of delaying the onset, slowing the progression, preventing, or treating Alzheimers disease in a subject. In particular, the invention provides methods of modulating transport of Aβ across the blood brain barrier of the subject.10-22-2009
20110143380ALZHEIMER'S DISEASE BIOMARKERS AND METHODS OF USE - The invention encompasses biomarkers for AD, a method for detecting AD, a method of monitoring AD, and a kit for quantifying biomarkers for AD.06-16-2011

Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20090238821HUMANIZED ANTIBODIES THAT SEQUESTER AMYLOID BETA PEPTIDE - A method to treat conditions characterized by formation of amyloid plaques both prophylactically and therapeutically is described. The method employs humanized antibodies which sequester soluble Aβ peptide from human biological fluids or which preferably specifically bind an epitope contained within position 13-28 of the amyloid beta peptide Aβ.09-24-2009
20100279433ASSAY METHOD FOR ALZHEIMER'S DISEASE - A diagnostic test for preclinical and clinical Alzheimer's disease is based on plasma levels of Aβ11-04-2010
20110158986HUMANIZED ANTIBODIES THAT SEQUESTER AMYLOID BETA PEPTIDE - A method to treat conditions characterized by formation of amyloid plaques both prophylactically and therapeutically is described. The method employs humanized antibodies which sequester soluble Aβ peptide from human biological fluids or which preferably specifically bind an epitope contained within position 13-28 of the amyloid beta peptide Aβ.06-30-2011

Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20090074775Use Of Anti-AB Antibody To Treat Traumatic Brain Injury - A method of effectively treating traumatic brain injury is described. The method comprises administering an effective amount of an anti-Aβ antibody to a living mammalian biosystem such as to a human. An antibody useful in such treating includes an antibody that therapeutically attenuates the toxic effects of the Aβ peptide in a living mammal in relation to traumatic brain injury.03-19-2009
20110111511METHODS FOR MEASURING THE METABOLISM OF NEURALLY DERIVED BIOMOLECULES IN VIVO - The present invention relates to methods of diagnosing, monitoring, and assessing treatment effects for neurological and neurodegenerative diseases and disorders, such as Alzheimer's Disease, early in the course of clinical disease or prior to the onset of brain damage and clinical symptoms. Methods of measuring the in vivo metabolism of biomolecules produced in the CNS in a subject are provided.05-12-2011

20100015091MODIFIED STAT1 TRANSGENE THAT CONFERS INTERFERON HYPERRESPONSIVENESS, METHODS AND USES THEREFOR - Methods of enhancing cellular responses to interferons are disclosed. These methods comprise administering to a subject a vector comprising a Stat1-CC transgene, such as an AAV5 vector comprising a reporter operably linked to a nucleic acid sequence encoding a Stat1-CC polypeptide. The methods can be used in the treatment of diseases that involve interferon responses, such as multiple sclerosis, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, and lupus; viral infections such as infection by hepatitis C virus, influenza A virus, cowpox virus, Sendai virus or Encephalomyocarditis virus; respiratory disorders; and cancers.01-21-2010
