Abstract: The present invention relates to an isolated antibody or fragment thereof, which specifically binds to human FGFR-3(IIIb) and FGFR-3(IIIc), or mutant forms thereof. Further embodiments include pharmaceutical compositions comprising the antibody and methods of using the antibody to treat cancer.
Abstract: The present invention is directed to antibodies against human transforming growth factor beta receptor II (TGF?RII), pharmaceutical compositions comprising antibodies and methods of using the antibodies, alone or in combination, for example, for treating cancer and fibrosis.
Abstract: Monoclonal antibodies that are specific for vascular endothelial growth factor receptor 1 (VEGFR-I). This invention also provides nucleotide sequences encoding and amino acid sequences comprising variable heavy and light chain immunoglobulin molecules, including sequences corresponding to the complementarity determining regions of CDR1, CDR2, and CDR3. The invention also provides methods for generation and expression of anti-VEGFR-I antibodies and methods of treating angiogenic-related disorders and reducing tumor growth by administering anti-VEGFR-I antibodies.

Abstract: The invention provides an antibodies that bind to KDR with an affinity comparable to or higher than human VEGF, and that neutralizes activation of KDR. Antibodies include whole immunoglobulins, monovalent Fabs and single chain antibodies, multivalent single chain antibodies, diabodies, triabodies, and single domain antibodies. The invention further provides nucleic acids and host cells that encode and express these antibodies. The invention further provides a method of neutralizing the activation of KDR, a method of inhibiting angiogenesis in a mammal and a method of inhibiting tumor growth in a mammal.

Abstract: Iron-regulated, outer membrane proteins found in Neisseria gonorrhoeae and Neisseria meningitidis are important in transferrin receptor function. The proteins, which are isolatable by means of a transferrin affinity column, bind specifically to antisera raised against an iron-regulated outer membrane protein having a molecular weight of approximately 100 kD found in Neisseria gonorrhoeae.
