20100247549 | MONOCLONAL ANTIBODIES AGAINST DENGUE AND OTHER VIRUSES WITH DELETION IN FC REGION - The present invention relates to a variant of a parent polypeptide comprising an Fc region, which variant binds an Fc gamma receptor (FcγR) with lower affinity than the parent polypeptide and comprises a deletion of at least one amino acid in about position 100 to about position 150 in the Fc region and related nucleic acids, vectors, host cells and methods of producing the variant and methods for preventing or treating a disorder in a mammal. | 09-30-2010 |
20110008256 | MONOCLONAL ANTIBODIES THAT BIND OR NEUTRALIZE DENGUE VIRUS - The present invention relates to monoclonal antibodies that bind or neutralize dengue type 1, 2, 3, and/or 4 virus. The invention provides such antibodies, fragments of such antibodies retaining dengue virus-binding ability, fully human or humanized antibodies retaining dengue virus-binding ability, and pharmaceutical compositions including such antibodies. The invention further provides for isolated nucleic acids encoding the antibodies of the invention and host cells transformed therewith. Additionally, the invention provides for prophylactic, therapeutic, and diagnostic methods employing the antibodies and nucleic acids of the invention. | 01-13-2011 |
20110033462 | HUMANIZED MONOCLONAL ANTIBODIES THAT SPECIFICALLY BIND AND/OR NEUTRALIZE JAPANESE ENCEPHALITIS VIRUS (JEV) AND THEIR USE - Disclosed herein are isolated humanized monoclonal antibodies that specifically bind Japanese encephalitis virus (JEV) with a binding affinity of about 1.0 nM or less. Nucleic acids encoding these antibodies, expression vectors including these nucleic acid molecules, and isolated host cells that express the nucleic acid molecules are also disclosed. Methods of treating, preventing, and/or ameliorating JEV infection in a subject with JEV also are disclosed. Additionally, the antibodies can be used to detect JEV in a sample, and methods of diagnosing JEV infection, or confirming a diagnosis of JEV infection in a subject, are disclosed herein that utilize these antibodies. | 02-10-2011 |
