  • Antibodies to TGF-Beta
    Publication number: 20230078449
    Abstract: The present invention relates to antibody molecules, in particular antibody molecules that bind Transforming Growth Factor beta (TGF?) and uses thereof. More particularly, the invention relates to antibody molecules that bind and preferably neutralise TGF?1, TGF?2 and TGF?3, so-called “pan-specific” antibody molecules, and uses of such antibody molecules. Preferred embodiments within the present invention are antibody molecules, whether whole antibody (e.g. IgG, such as IgG1 or IgG4) or antibody fragments (e.g. scFv, Fab, dAb).
