20100173799 | METHOD FOR GENERATION OF IMMUNOGLOBULIN SEQUENCES - The present invention relates to a method for generating immunoglobulin sequences against cell-associated antigens, more particularly, antigens that are membrane-anchored. The invention also provides immunoglobulin sequences obtainable by the method of the invention. Specifically, the present invention relates to the generation of immunoglobulin sequences by use of DNA vaccination. More specifically, the present invention relates to generation of immunoglobulin sequences in camelids, preferably directed against cell-associated antigens, in particular antigens with multiple transmembrane spanning domains, including GPCRs and ion channels, by DNA vaccination. Furthermore, the present invention relates to said immunoglobulin sequences against cell-associated antigens, more particularly, antigens that are membrane-anchored, such as e.g. GPCRs and ion channels, more preferably ion channels. | 07-08-2010 |
20110117113 | IMMUNOGLOBULIN SINGLE VARIABLE DOMAIN DIRECTED AGAINST HUMAN CXCR4 AND OTHER CELL ASSOCIATED PROTEINS AND METHODS TO GENERATE THEM - The invention relates to immunoglobulin single variable domains directed against specific human CXCR4 epitopes (herein also referred to interchangeably as “compounds of the invention”, “amino acid sequences of the invention”, or “building blocks of the invention”) and polypeptides comprising them (herein also referred to as “polypeptides of the invention”, “compounds of the invention”, or “constructs of the invention”). | 05-19-2011 |
20110182897 | AMINO ACID SEQUENCES DIRECTED AGAINST ENVELOPE PROTEINS OF A VIRUS AND POLYPEPTIDES COMPRISING THE SAME FOR THE TREATMENT OF VIRAL DISEASES - The present invention relates in part to amino acid sequences that are directed against and/or that can specifically bind to an envelope protein of a virus, as well as to compounds or constructs, and in particular proteins and polypeptides, that comprise or essentially consist of one or more such amino acid sequences. | 07-28-2011 |
20110262438 | BIOLOGICAL MATERIALS RELATED TO CXCR7 - The present invention relates to particular polypeptides, nucleic acids encoding such polypeptides; to methods for preparing such polypeptides; to host cells expressing or capable of expressing such polypeptides; to compositions and in particular to pharmaceutical compositions that comprise such polypeptides, for prophylactic, therapeutic or diagnostic purposes. | 10-27-2011 |
20120128669 | MONOVALENT, BIVALENT AND TRIVALENT ANTI HUMAN RESPIRATORY SYNCYTIAL VIRUS (HRSV) NANOBODY CONSTRUCTS FOR THE PREVENTION AND/OR TREATMENT OF RESPIRATORY TRACT INFECTIONS - Amino acid sequences are provided that are directed against and/or that can specifically bind protein F of hRSV, as well as to compounds or constructs, and in particular proteins and polypeptides, that comprise or essentially consist of one or more such amino acid sequences. The amino acid sequences, polypeptides and therapeutic compounds and compositions provided by the invention show an improved stability, less immunogenicity and/or improved affinity and/or avidity for protein F of hRSV. The invention also relates to the uses of such amino acid sequences, polypeptides, compounds or constructs for prophylactic and/or therapeutic purposes. | 05-24-2012 |
20120301469 | AMINO ACID SEQUENCES DIRECTED AGAINST HUMAN RESPIRATORY SYNCYTIAL VIRUS (HRSV) AND POLYPEPTIDES COMPRISING THE SAME FOR THE PREVENTION AND/OR TREATMENT OF RESPIRATORY TRACT INFECTIONS - Amino acid sequences are provided that are directed against/and or that can specifically bind protein F of hRSV, as well as to compounds or constructs, and in particular proteins and polypeptides, that comprise or essentially consist of one or more such amino acid sequences. The amino acid sequences, polypeptides and therapeutic compounds and compositions provided by the invention show an improved stability, less immunogenicity and/or improved affinity and/or avidity for protein F of hRSV. The invention also relates to the uses of such amino acid sequences, polypeptides, compounds or constructs for prophylactic and/or therapeutic purposes. | 11-29-2012 |
20130130379 | AMINO ACID SEQUENCES DIRECTED AGAINST GPCRS AND POLYPEPTIDES COMPRISING THE SAME FOR THE TREATMENT OF GPCR-RELATED DISEASES AND DISORDERS - The present invention relates to amino acid sequences that are directed against G-protein coupled receptors (GPCRs), as well as to compounds or constructs, and in particular proteins and polypeptides, that comprise or essentially consist of one or more such amino acid sequences. The invention also relates to nucleic acids encoding such amino acid sequences and; to methods for preparing such amino acid sequences and polypeptides; to host cells expressing or capable of expressing such amino acid sequences or polypeptides; to compositions, and in particular to pharmaceutical compositions, that comprise such amino acid sequences, polypeptides, nucleic acids and/or host cells; and to uses of such amino acid sequences or polypeptides, nucleic acids, host cells and/or compositions, in particular for prophylactic, therapeutic or diagnostic purposes. | 05-23-2013 |
20140178390 | BIOLOGICAL MATERIALS RELATED TO CXCR7 - The present invention relates to particular polypeptides, nucleic acids encoding such polypeptides; to methods for preparing such polypeptides; to host cells expressing or capable of expressing such polypeptides; to compositions and in particular to pharmaceutical compositions that comprise such polypeptides, for prophylactic, therapeutic or diagnostic purposes. In particular, the present invention provides immunoglobulin single variable domains inhibiting CXCR7 mediated tumour growth. | 06-26-2014 |
