Abstract: Novel anti-TREM-1 (Triggering Receptor Expressed on Myeloid cells-1) antibodies and antigen-binding fragments thereof. Also, fusion proteins that include these anti-TREM-1 antibodies and antigen-binding fragments thereof, as well as the therapeutic uses thereof for treating of a disease, such as an inflammatory or autoimmune disease, a cardiovascular disease, a cancer, or an infectious disease.

Abstract: The use of soluble triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells-1 (sTREM-1) as a marker in a method for identifying a subject suffering from a disease caused by a coronavirus such as COVID-19 at risk of having or developing a severe form and/or a complication or at risk of death, in a method for assessing the severity of a disease caused by a coronavirus such as COVID-19, and in a method for monitoring a subject suffering from a disease caused by a coronavirus such as COVID-19.

Abstract: An inhibitor of triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells 1 (TREM-1) for use in the treatment of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) in a subject in need thereof, in particular in a subject suffering from a severe form and/or a complication of COVID-19. Also, the use of soluble triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells-1 (sTREM-1) as a marker in a method for identifying a subject suffering from COVID-19 susceptible to respond to a TREM-1 inhibitor and in a method for monitoring the effectiveness of TREM-1 inhibitor administered to a subject suffering from COVID-19.

Abstract: A method for identifying human subjects suffering from an inflammatory disorder susceptible to respond to a therapy, in particular to a TREM-1 inhibitor. In particular, an in vitro method for identifying a human subject suffering from an inflammatory disorder, preferably an acute inflammatory disorder such as SIRS, sepsis or septic shock, susceptible to respond to a therapy, in particular to a TREM-1 inhibitor. The method includes the steps of a) measuring the level of soluble triggering receptors expressed on myeloid cells-1 (sTREM-1) in a biological sample from the human subject, comparing the level of sTREM-1 measured at step a) to a predetermined sTREM-1 value, and c) identifying a human subject suffering from an inflammatory disorder with a level of sTREM-1 measured at step a) higher than the predetermined sTREM-1 value of step b) as susceptible to respond to a therapy, in particular to a TREM-1 inhibitor.

Abstract: A cardiovascular event or disease is prevented or treated in a subject by measuring the expression level of soluble Triggering Receptors Expressed on Myeloid cells-1 (sTREM-1) level in a sample from the subject and comparing it to a reference level. Based on this comparison, subjects that are at risk of having or developing a cardiovascular event or disease are identified, and administered a suitable therapy.
