Publication number: 20160046712Abstract: The present invention relates to agents and methods that are capable of augmenting NK-mediated killing of target cells by reducing inhibitory KIR signalling without reducing the binding of KIR to HLA-C. As described herein, transduction of negative signaling via KIR, upon binding of KIR to its HLA class I ligand, can involve a ligand-binding induced, conformational reorientation of the KIR molecules allowing interactions to form between adjacent KIRs in specific domains, leading to accelerated clustering. Methods and agents such as monoclonal antibodies for reducing KIR-mediated inhibition of NK cell cytotoxicity without reducing or blocking HLA-binding by, e.g., reducing or blocking dimerization of KIR, are provided.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 23, 2015Publication date: February 18, 2016Inventors: Søren Berg Padkær, Peter Andreas, Nicolai, Reumert Wagtmann, Pieter Spee, Stefan Zahn, Kristian Kjærgaard, Anders Svensson

Publication number: 20160024214Abstract: The present invention provides isolated anti-human NKG2D monoclonal antibodies useful for therapeutic applications in humans. Typically, the antibodies are fully human or humanized to minimize the risk for immune responses against the antibodies when administered to a patient. Preferred antibodies include human monoclonal antibodies MS and 21F2. As described herein, other antigen-binding molecules such as, e.g., antigen-binding antibody fragments, antibody derivatives, and multi-specific molecules, can be designed or derived from such antibodies.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 27, 2015Publication date: January 28, 2016Inventors: Birgitte Urso, Peter Andreas Nicolai Reumert Wagtmann, Inger Lund Pedersen, Anders Svensson

Patent number: 9228022Abstract: The invention relates to antibodies that are capable of specifically binding tissue factor pathway inhibitor (TFPI), neutralizing free TFPI and reducing the clotting time of blood. Furthermore, the invention relates to polynucleotides that encode such antibodies and to cells that comprise the polynucleotides or that express the antibodies of the invention. Such antibodies have utility in the treatment of subjects with a coagulopathy, alone as well as in combination with a second agent.Type: GrantFiled: February 28, 2013Date of Patent: January 5, 2016Assignee: Novo Nordisk A/SInventors: Ida Hilden, Jes Thorn Clausen, Lars Christian Petersen, Brit Binow Soerensen, Helle Heibroch Petersen, Anders Svensson

Publication number: 20150344576Abstract: Compositions and methods for regulating an immune response in a subject are described. More particularly, described are human antibodies that regulate the activity of NK cells and allow a potentiation of NK cell cytotoxicity in mammalian subjects, and antibodies having antigen-binding properties similar to those of human monoclonal antibody 1-7F9 or 1-4F1. Described also are also fragments and derivatives of such antibodies, as well as pharmaceutical compositions comprising the same and their uses, particularly for use in therapy, to increase NK cell activity or cytotoxicity in subjects.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 18, 2015Publication date: December 3, 2015Inventors: Alessandro Moretta, Mariella Della Chiesa, Pascale Andre, Laurent Gauthier, Francois Romagne, Peter Andreas Nicolai Reumert Wagtmann, Ivan Svendsen, Stefan Zahn, Anders Svensson, Matthias Thorolfsson, Soren Berg Padkaer, Kristian Kjaergaard, Pieter Johannes Louis Spee, Michael Wilken

Patent number: 9186687Abstract: A system includes a hermetic centrifugal separator, a recirculation system, a first monitoring system, a first control system, a pressure monitoring system, and a pressure control system. The separator includes a rotor, a separation chamber, an inlet channel for separating components, a first outlet channel for receiving separated light components, and a second outlet channel for receiving separated heavy components. The recirculation system recirculates the separated heavy components from the second outlet channel to the separation chamber. The first monitoring system monitors density and/or flow rate of the heavy components in the second outlet channel. The first control system controls flow rate in response to a control signal from the first monitoring system. The pressure monitoring system monitors pressure in the second outlet channel. The pressure control system controls a back pressure valve in the second outlet channel in response to a control signal from the pressure monitoring means.Type: GrantFiled: January 28, 2011Date of Patent: November 17, 2015Assignee: Alfa Laval Corporate ABInventors: Carl Häggmark, Sverker Danielsson, Peter Thorwid, Roland Isaksson, Hans Moberg, Johan Agrell, Anders Svensson
