Abstract: The disclosure provides for antibodies that bind CD40, including a humanized antibody. The antibodies bind CD40 and do not exhibit CD40 agonist activity. The antibodies may comprise a modified IgG1 Fc domain, and exhibit minimal activation of immature dendritic cells. Compositions comprising antibodies, methods of use for treatment of diseases involving CD40 activity, and use in the preparation of a medicament for treatment of a disease involving CD40 activity are provided.

Abstract: Modified IgG1 Fc domains having reduced binding to Fc-gamma-receptors are provided. Further provided are fusion polypeptides comprising a modified IgG1 Fc domain. An antibody polypeptide that specifically binds a human CD40 is provided, wherein the antibody polypeptides are fusions of a domain antibody (dAb) comprising a single VH domain and an Fc domain. The antibody polypeptides do not exhibit CD40 agonist activity, do not substantially activate immature dendritic cells, and have improved biophysical properties.

Abstract: Antibody polypeptides that specifically bind a novel epitope of human CD40 are provided. The antibody polypeptides do not exhibit CD40 agonist activity. The antibody polypeptides are useful in the treatment of diseases involving CD40 activation, such as autoimmune diseases. The antibody polypeptides may be domain antibodies (dAbs) comprising a single VL or VH domain. The half-life of the antibody polypeptides may be increased by modifying the antibody polypeptides to be dual specific reagents that can also bind human serum albumin (HSA).

Abstract: Antibody polypeptides that specifically bind human CD40L are provided. The antibody polypeptides do not activate platelets. The antibody polypeptides are useful in the treatment of diseases involving CD40L activation, such as graft-related diseases and autoimmune diseases. The antibody polypeptides may be domain antibodies (dAbs) comprising a single VH or VK domain. The half-life of the antibody polypeptides may be increased by modifying the antibody polypeptides to be dual specific reagents that can also bind human serum albumin (HSA) or another antigen.
