  • Patent number: 11325967
    Abstract: The present invention is directed to methods of inhibiting or preventing photophobia in subjects in need thereof using anti-CGRP antibodies or antibody fragments that inhibit photophobia, especially CGRP-associated photophobia. These antibodies and fragments are useful in treating different disorders associated with photophobia such as migraine, cluster headaches and the like. The present invention also provides assays using transgenic Nestin/Ramp1 rodents, utilizing a CGRP model light aversive behavior model for identifying therapeutically effective anti-CGRP antibodies and fragments thereof having binding specificity for CGRP which inhibit or prevent photophobia in subjects in need thereof. The present invention is specifically directed to methods for identifying therapeutically effective antibodies and fragments thereof having binding specificity for CGRP that may be used to treat CGRP associated disorders such as migraine.

  • Patent number: 11027018
    Abstract: The present invention is directed to methods for treating diarrhea, both chronic or acute forms, by the administration of a therapeutically or prophylactically effective amount of antibodies and fragments thereof having binding specificity for CGRP. In particular the methods prevent or reduce diarrhea in conditions or treatments resulting in elevated CGRP levels, e.g., in the GI tract (colon) that are associated with diarrhea and/or improper electrolyte and fluid excretion from the bowel or urinary system. More specifically, this invention relates to treatments using the anti-CGRP antibodies and fragments described herein, and binding fragments thereof.
