  • Patent number: 8110548
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for the treatment of a cartilage disorder, including cartilage damaged by injury or degenerative cartilagenous disorders. The method involves contacting the cartilage with an IGF-1 analog with altered affinity for IGF-binding proteins (IGFBPs) or an IGFBP displacer peptide that prevents the interaction of an IGF with an IGFBP and does not bind to a human IGF receptor.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: November 2, 2007
    Date of Patent: February 7, 2012
    Assignee: Genentech, Inc.
    Inventors: Yvonne Man-Yee Chen, Ross G. Clark, Andrea G. Cochran, Yves Dubaquie, Paul J. Fielder, Ellen Filvaroff, Henry B. Lowman, Deborah L. Mortensen, Iain C. A. F. Robinson, Nicholas J. Skelton
