Abstract: The present disclosure provides compositions and methods for intra-articular delivery of anti-CSF1R antibodies to a tissue that is impacted by a disease that is treatable with CSF1/CSF1R inhibition and/or that expresses CSF1R.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides compositions and methods for extended release of certain types of antibodies in vivo. It was discovered that such antibodies are able to initiate reversible gelation of hyaluronic acid (HA) by creating a depot that dissociates over time to release the antibody without any impact on its physical and chemical properties as well as its biological activity. As certain tissues and organs, such as eyes, joints and skins, contain HA, local injection of the antibodies to these tissues or organs will result in embedding of the antibody in gel formed from the HA, which becomes a repository of slow-released antibodies. In addition, slow-released formulations can be prepared with antibodies mixed with HA, optionally with other polymers.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates generally to compositions and methods for diagnosing and treating idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF). Also, methods for identifying IPF disease severity and likelihood for disease progression. An IPF patient can be identified when the CSF1 concentration or soluble CSF1R concentration in a blood sample is decreased as compared to a reference blood sample from a reference human subject not having IPF, and/or when the soluble CSF1R concentration in a bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) fluid sample is increased as compared to a reference BAL fluid sample from the reference human subject. Once identified, the patient can be treated with, for instance, CSF1 or CSF1R inhibitors, such as antibodies. Moreover, the IPF patient soluble CSF1R level in blood or BAL samples can also be used to assess the severity of disease, and to both monitor disease progression and treatment outcomes.
