Abstract: The present invention pertains to a cell culture medium comprising media supplements that are shown to control recombinant protein glycosylation and/or cell culture in a controlled or modulated (shifted) temperature to control recombinant protein glycosylation and/or cell culture with controlled or modulated seed density to control recombinant protein glycosylation, and methods of using thereof. The present invention further pertains to a method of controlling or manipulating glycosylation of a recombinant protein of interest in a large scale cell culture.

Abstract: The invention provides a composition comprising an anti-tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-alpha polypeptide, wherein the composition produces a reduced level of immunogenicity when administered to a subject, as well as a treatment method involving the administration of the composition.

Abstract: A stable aqueous composition comprising (a) about 10 to about 100 mg/ml of an anti-C5 antibody, (b) a surfactant, (c) a stabilizer, and (d) a buffer having a pH of about 5.0 to about 7.8, wherein the stabilizer is trehalose, sucrose, sorbitol, arginine, or a combination thereof is provided. In a particular embodiment, the stable aqueous composition consists essentially of (a) about 10 or about 50 mg/ml of an anti-C5 antibody, (b) about 0.01 to about 0.1% (w/v) of a surfactant, (c) about 1 to about 20 mM buffer having a pH of 5.5 to 7.5, and (d) a stabilizer selected from the group consisting of trehalose, sucrose, sorbitol, arginine, or a combination thereof. A method of treating a disorder in which C5 activity is detrimental in a subject comprising administering the stable aqueous composition to the subject also is provided.
