| 20080206254 | Novel Anti-Factor VIII Antibodies - The present invention relates to new antibodies and fragments and derivatives thereof, which are particularly suited for the characterization of the structure and function of Factor VIII (FVIII) of the coagulation pathway, for the design of therapeutic strategies for eradication of FVIII inhibitors and for the use as a medicament The invention also relates to cell lines producing the specific antibodies. The present invention furthermore relates to pharmaceutical compositions comprising the antibodies, fragments and/or derivatives of the Invention and to methods of preventing and treating cardiovascular disorders by using the antibodies or fragments and derivatives thereof or pharmaceutical compositions thereof. | 08-28-2008 |
| 20100266586 | VARIABLE ANTIBODIES - The present invention discloses inhibitory antibodies against Factor VIII with modified glycosylation, either by enzymatic deglycosylation or by site directed mutagenesis. Said antibodies with modified glycosylation have equal affinity for FVIII but show different inhibiting properties. The use of one or a mixture of said antibodies allow modulation of the inhibition of factor VIII to levels between 40 and 95%. The present invention further discloses pharmaceutical compositions comprising inhibitory antibodies against Factor VIII with modified glycosylation, combinations of these antibodies and methods for treating haemostasis disorders using said antibodies and antibody mixtures. | 10-21-2010 |
| 20100272715 | VARIABLE ANTIBODIES - The present invention discloses inhibitory antibodies against Factor VIII with modified glycosylation, either by enzymatic deglycosylation or by site directed mutagenesis. Said antibodies with modified glycosylation have equal affinity for FVIII but show different inhibiting properties. The use of one or a mixture of said antibodies allow modulation of the inhibition of factor VIII to levels between 40 and 95%. The present invention further discloses pharmaceutical compositions comprising inhibitory antibodies against Factor VIII with modified glycosylation, combinations of these antibodies and methods for treating haemostasis disorders using said antibodies and antibody mixtures. | 10-28-2010 |
| 20100303866 | IMMUNOGENIC PEPTIDES AND THEIR USE IN IMMUNE DISORDERS - The present invention provides novel peptides and homologues thereof. The peptides of the invention comprise (i) a T-cell epitope of an antigen (self or non-self) with a potential to trigger an immune reaction presented by a class II major histocompatibility complex (MHC) determinant and recognised by CD4+ T cell more specifically of an allergen or auto-antigen, coupled, optionally through the use of a linker to (ii) an amino acid sequence having a reducing activity, such as a thioreductase sequence. The peptides of the invention have been shown to be useful a medicine, more in particular for the prevention or treatment of immune disorders, more specifically of allergic disorders or autoimmune diseases. The present invention thus provides for the use of said peptides for the manufacture of a medicament for the prevention or treatment of an immune disorder and further provides for methods of treatment or preventing immune disorders by using said peptides. The present invention also provides for compositions comprising said peptides. | 12-02-2010 |
| 20100322967 | B CELL TOLERANCE INDUCTION - The present invention relates to the induction of immune tolerance, by a novel method of induction of IL-10 production in B cells, whereby said B cells can be loaded with antigen before, during or after the induction of the IL-10 production. More specifically, the invention relates to the transduction of the B cell with a retroviral vector encoding an antigen, whereby the retroviral envelop induces IL-10 production in the B cell by activation the TLR2 receptor, in combination with its viral receptor. | 12-23-2010 |
| 20100330088 | STRATEGIES TO PREVENT AND/OR TREAT IMMUNIE RESPONSES TO SOLUBLE ALLOFACTORS - The present invention relates to the use of immunogenic peptides comprising a T-cell epitope derived from a soluble allofactor and a redox motif such as C-(X)2-[CST] or [CST]-(X)2-C in the prevention and/or suppression of immune responses to said soluble allofactor and in the manufacture of medicaments therefore. | 12-30-2010 |
| 20110002903 | IMMUNOGENIC CONTROL OF TUMOURS AND TUMOUR CELLS - The present invention relates to the use of immunogenic peptides comprising a T-cell epitope derived from a tumour-associated antigen and a redox motif such as C—(X)2-[CST] or [CST]-(X)2-C in the treatment of a tumour or in the treatment or prevention of a tumour relapse, and in the manufacture of medicaments therefore. | 01-06-2011 |
| 20110010786 | TRANSGENIC ANIMAL EXPRESSING B CELL ANTIGEN RECEPTOR - The invention relates to a non-human transgenic mammal containing in its genome a DNA construct expressing a B cell antigen receptor specific for factor VIII of the coagulation pathway. | 01-13-2011 |
| 20110111395 | CD4+CELLS WITH CYTOLYTIC PROPERTIES - The present invention relates to CD4+ T cells, more specifically cytolytic or cytotoxic CD4+ T-cells and methods of obtaining and identifying them. | 05-12-2011 |
