  • Antibodies, kit and method for detecting amyloid beta oligomers
    Patent number: 9310383
    Abstract: This invention is a selective A? oligomer kit and immunoassay method capable of reliably and sensitively detecting A? oligomers in a biological sample of a patient. In one embodiment the inventive assay uses a pair of anti-A? oligomer antibodies, as capture and detection antibodies, to detect and quantify A? oligomers. The method can be used to differentiate Alzheimer's disease (AD) patients from non-AD patients and/or to stratify AD patients according to the severity of their disease.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: June 3, 2015
    Date of Patent: April 12, 2016
    Assignees: Acumen Pharmaceuticals, Inc., Merck Sharp & Dohme Corp.
    Inventors: William F. Goure, Renee C. Gaspar, Alexander McCampbell, Mary J. Savage, Paul J. Shughrue, Fubao Wang, Weirong Wang, Abigail L. Wolfe, Ningyan Zhang, Wei-Qin Zhao, Min Xu

  • METHOD FOR DETECTION OF AMYLOIDS BETA OLIGOMERS IN A FLUID SAMPLE AND USES THEREOF
    Publication number: 20140120037
    Abstract: The invention herein is directed to a selective A? oligomer immunoassay capable of reliably and sensitively detecting A? oligomers in a biological sample of a patient. In one embodiment the inventive assay uses a pair of anti-A? oligomer antibodies, 19.3 and 82E1, to detect and quantify A? oligomers in a cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) sample. The inventive assay can be used to differentiate Alzheimer's disease (AD) patients from non-AD patients and/or to stratify AD patients according to the severity of their disease. The inventive assay can also be used as a target engagement assay that can measure bound A? oligomers as a surrogate end-point for the assessment of therapeutic efficacy and/or target engagement.
