Patent number: 11725052Abstract: The present disclosure provides antibodies and antigen-binding fragments thereof that specifically bind to human PAR-2 and compositions comprising such antibodies or antigen-binding fragments thereof. In a particular aspect, the antibodies or antigen-binding fragments thereof that specifically bind to human PAR-2 block the interaction between a PAR-2 activating ligand and an extracellular domain of PAR-2, and/or blocks PAR-2 activation by a PAR-2 activating ligand, In further aspects, the antibodies or antigen-binding fragments can be used to treat diseases or conditions associated with increased expression of PAR-2 and/or diseases or conditions that can be alleviated by antagonizing activation of PAR-2 by a PAR-2 activating ligand (e.g., airway diseases, skin diseases, cancer, orofacial granulomatosis, inflammatory conditions, and pain associated with various diseases or conditions).Type: GrantFiled: August 18, 2021Date of Patent: August 15, 2023Assignee: Cephalon LLCInventors: Anna Mikaela Bracken, Adam Clarke, Bridget A.

Patent number: 11423795Abstract: A cognitive training and evaluation system capable of simulating a scenario to be executed by a trainee. The system includes a simulation server and one or more interface devices. The simulation server can include a data storage engine, a scenario generation engine, a scenario execution engine, and a feedback and analysis engine. The data storage engine can store a library of scenario scripts, which can be used by the scenario generation engine with one or more scenario generation parameters to produce a scenario for execution by the scenario execution engine. The scenario execution engine can be configured to execute the scenario by iteratively communicating a status to the interface device, and receiving a response from the interface device. Each interface device can render a simulation based on the one and communicate the response to the simulation server. Trainee and opponent statistics can be used during scenario generation and execution.Type: GrantFiled: March 25, 2016Date of Patent: August 23, 2022Assignee: CogReps Inc.Inventor: Matthew Pollard Schaefgen
