Publication number: 20230357381Abstract: Described herein are multispecific antibodies targeting IL-13 and IL-18. The multispecific antibodies can be antagonistic and/or therapeutic antibodies targeting IL-13 and IL-18. Also described herein are methods of making said multispecific antibodies, methods of inhibiting IL-13 and IL-18 simultaneously with said multispecific antibodies, and methods of treating an IL-13/IL-18 mediated disorder, such as atopic dermatitis, by administering a multispecific antibody described herein.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 25, 2023Publication date: November 9, 2023Inventors: Michael Otto BARDROFF, Regis CEBE, Jiri KOVARIK, Frank KOLBINGER, Michael KIFFE, Anett RITTER, Lukas ROTH

Publication number: 20220098296Abstract: IL-18 participates in both innate and acquired immunity. The bioactivity of IL-18 is negatively regulated by the IL-18 binding protein (IL18BP), a naturally occurring and highly specific inhibitor. This soluble protein forms a complex with free IL-18 preventing its interaction with the IL-18 receptor, thus neutralizing and inhibiting its biological activity. The present invention discloses binding molecules, in particular antibodies or fragments thereof, which bind IL-18 and do not bind IL-18 bound to IL-18BP (IL-18/IL-18BP complex). Apart from its physiological role, IL-18 has been shown to mediate a variety of autoimmune and inflammatory diseases. The binding molecules of the inventions may be used as therapeutic molecules for treating IL-18-related autoimmune and inflammatory diseases or as diagnostic tools for characterizing, detecting and/or measuring IL-18 not bound to IL-18BP as component of the total IL-18 pool.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 27, 2021Publication date: March 31, 2022Inventors: Michael Otto BARDROFF, Barbara BRANNETTI, Emma Michelle CAMPBELL, Beate DIEFENBACH-STREIBER, Adina EBERTH, Christian Carsten Silverster KUNZ, Sylwia MARSHALL, Jean-Michel Rene RONDEAU, Jean-Marc Alfred SCHLAEPPI, Gino Anselmus VAN HEEKE
