  • Publication number: 20240132578
    Abstract: The invention provides a method for obtaining a broadly neutralizing antibody (bNab), including screening memory B cell cultures from a donor PBMC sample for neutralization activity against a plurality of HIV-1 species, cloning a memory B cell that exhibits broad neutralization activity; and rescuing a monoclonal antibody from that memory B cell culture. The resultant monoclonal antibodies may be characterized by their ability to selectively bind epitopes from the Env proteins in native or monomeric form, as well as to inhibit infection of HIV-1 species from a plurality of clades. Compositions containing human monoclonal anti-HIV antibodies used for prophylaxis, diagnosis and treatment of HIV infection are provided. Methods for generating such antibodies by immunization using epitopes from conserved regions within the variable loops of gp120 are provided. Immunogens for generating anti-HIV1 bNAbs are also provided. Furthermore, methods for vaccination using suitable epitopes are provided.

  • Publication number: 20230346820
    Abstract: Disclosed herein ar methods that are useful for treating a subject who has a pathogenic infection, such as severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2); reducing the likelihood of the subject from being infected by a pathogen; and for reducing the transmission of a pathogen from a subject to others. The methods utilize a compound disclosed in Table 1 or Table 4 herein, optionally in combination with an additional agent such as an anti-infective agent.
