Oct 2020
The present invention relates to monoclonal anti-human-GDF-15 antibodies. The antibodies include chimeric anti-bodies and humanized antibodies. The invention also relates to monoclonal anti-human-GDF-15 antibodies including murine anti-bodies, chimeric antibodies and humanized antibodies for use in methods for the treatment of cancer cachexia and also for the treatment of cancer. The invention also provides pharmaceutical compositions, kits, methods and uses and cell lines capable of producing the monoclonal antibodies of the invention.

Novel Anti-Cd40 Antibodies and Use Thereof

Park, Chung Gyu; Kim, Jung Sik; Lucas, Zachariah
Sep 2020
The present invention relates to novel anti-CD40 antibodies and a use thereof and, more specifically, provided are a pharmaceutical composition for treating or preventing autoimmune diseases and a composition for inhibiting immune rejection during organ transplantation, both compositions containing, as an active ingredient, novel anti-CD40 antibodies that specifically bind to a novel epitope of CD40. Novel anti-CD40 antibodies of the present invention directly target CD40, but not CD40 ligands, and block the signaling of CD40-CD154 without stimulating platelets so as to exhibit excellent antagonistic effects, thereby being expected to be usable as a preparation effective in the treatment of autoimmune diseases and the inhibition of organ transplantation rejection.

IgM Fc AND J-CHAIN MUTATIONS THAT AFFECT IgM SERUM HALF-LIFE

Baliga, Ramesh; Keyt, Bruce; NG, Dean; Huynh, Phuong N.
Jul 2020
This disclosure provides an IgM antibody or IgM-like antibody comprising a variant J-chain and/or variant IgM heavy chain constant regions that can confer increased serum half-life upon the antibody.

Plasmodium Falciparum and Plasmodium Vivax Vaccine

Werner, Ekkehard
Apr 2020
The present invention relates to a vaccine V comprising (A) at least one isolated polypeptide strand P comprising or consisting of at least nine consecutive amino acid moieties of the repetitive organellar protein, putative of Plasmodium falciparum or the hypothetical protein PVNG_04523 of Plasmodium vivax or a polynucleotide strand encoding for such polypeptide; and (B) at least one pharmaceutically acceptable carrier or excipient. Furthermore, the present invention refers to an antibody binding to the repetitive organellar protein,putative of Plasmodium falciparumor the hypothetical protein PVNG_04523 of Plasmodium vivax or a polynucleotide strand encoding therefor, to a method of generating such antibody and uses thereof.

Anti-Cd95l Antibody

Gieffers, Christian; Hill, Oliver; Thiemann, Meinolf; Sykora, Jaromir; Merz, Christian; Schnyder, Tim; Fricke, Harald; Landsman, Robert S.
Apr 2020
The present invention relates to a specific CD95L antibody and to the use thereof in the treatment or diagnosis of diseases involving CD95L-induced signalling, e.g. cancer diseases.

Plasmodium Sporozoite Npdp Peptides as Vaccine and Target Novel Malaria Vaccines and Antibodies Binding To

Lanzavecchia, Antonio; Tan, Joshua Hoong Yu; Daubenberger, Claudia; Sack, Brandon
Mar 2020
The present invention provides a fragment of piasmodium circumsporozoite protein according to SEQ ID NO: 1, for example for use in a malaria vaccine. The present invention also provides nucleic acids encoding a fragment of piasmodium circumsporozoite protein according to SEQ ID NO: 1, compositions comprising a fragment of piasmodium circumsporozoite protein according to SEQ ID NO: 1 and antibodies binding to a fragment of piasmodium circumsporozoite protein according to SEQ ID NO: 1. The antibodies according to the present invention bind specifically to P. falciparum sporozoites and may be used in the treatment and/or prevention of malaria.
