  • Patent number: 8222205
    Abstract: Disclosed is a method of preparing a GLP-1 compound that is soluble in aqueous solution at pH 7.4 from a GLP-1 compound that is substantially insoluble in aqueous solution at pH 7.4. The insoluble GLP-1 compound is dissolved in aqueous base or in aqueous acid to form a GLP-1 solution. The GLP-1 solution is then neutralized to a pH at which substantially no amino acid racemization of the GLP-1 compounds occurs, after which the soluble GLP-1 compound is isolated from the neutralized solution.

  • Publication number: 20120130313
    Abstract: A cartridge with injection needles for an injection device. The cartridge includes a plurality of injection needle assemblies, each including a hub, mounted to be shiftable in cavities of a needle assembly support. A hub ledge having a drive member engageable push surface projects within a gap between a first hub portion and a second hub portion. Driving engagement of the push surface by an injection device drive member shifts the needle assembly from a retracted position to an injection position, during which shifting the second hub portion moves relative to the first hub portion. A pull surface on the second hub portion is engagable with the drive member for lifting the needle assembly from the injection position.

  • Patent number: 8173124
    Abstract: Human monoclonal antibodies that specifically bind to TNFSF13b polypeptides are disclosed. These antibodies have high affinity for hTNFSF13b (e.g., KD=10?8 M or less), a slow off rate for TNFSF13b dissociation (e.g., Koff=10?3 sec?1 or less) and neutralize TNFSF13b activity in vitro and in vivo. The antibodies of the invention are useful in one embodiment for inhibiting TNFSF13b activity in a human subject suffering from a disorder in which hTNFSF13b activity is detrimental. Nucleic acids encoding the antibodies of the present invention, as well as, vectors and host cells for expressing them are also encompassed by the invention.
