Patents Assigned to Teva Pharmaceuticals Australia Pty Ltd
  • Patent number: 11618784
    Abstract: The present invention provides a combination therapy for treating a tumor in a subject. The combination comprises two elements. The first is a polypeptide construct comprising an attenuated Type 1 interferon (IFN) linked to an antibody which binds to a cell surface-associated antigen expressed on the tumour cell and comprising a functional Fc region. The second is a CD47 antagonist which inhibits the interaction CD47 with the SIRP? receptor.

  • Patent number: 11319356
    Abstract: The present invention provides a fusion polypeptide comprising a first domain and a second domain, wherein the first domain comprises a polypeptide ligand which binds to a cell surface-associated antigen and the second domain comprises aglycosylated interferon ? 2b (IFN?2b) having a sequence of SEQ ID NO: 1 or SEQ ID NO: 2. The aglycosylated IFN?2b further comprises one or more amino acid substitutions or deletions which attenuate the activity of the aglycosylated IFN?2b.

  • Patent number: 11117975
    Abstract: Antibodies that specifically bind to CD38, as well as constructs comprising such antibodies fused to attenuated interferon alpha-2B proteins are provided. Anti-CD38-attenuated interferon alpha-2b fusion constructs may be used to inhibit proliferation in cancerous cells that express both CD38 and the receptor for IFN-alpha2b, as well as to induce apoptosis in such cells. Inhibition of proliferation and induction of apoptosis in cancerous cells may serve as the basis for the treatment of the underlying cancer.
