Abstract: Thiophene derivatives of formula (I) and a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof are provided. These compounds have utility for the treatment or prevention of disorders caused by IgE, such as allergy, type 1 hypersensitivity or familiar sinus inflammation.

Abstract: The present invention relates to the area of improved anti-IgE antibodies and antigen binding agents, and compositions thereof, which target IgE, for instance: for use in treating disorders caused by IgE (such as allergic responses, or certain autoimmune responses); and, in particular, disorders caused by the interaction of IgE with the Fc?RI receptor. In particular, this invention relates to improved anti-IgE antibodies and antigen binding agents related to novel mutants of omalizumab (Xolair®). The improved anti-IgE antibodies and antigen binding agents of the invention may have improved affinity for IgE and/or an improved interaction with the C?2 domain of IgE and/or an improved modified epitope on IgE (for instance further involving the C?2 domain of IgE) and/or the ability to disassociate IgE from the Fc?RI receptor for instance at pharmaceutically-relevant concentrations.

Abstract: The present invention relates to an improved method for drug discovery. In particular the present invention provides a method of identifying compounds capable of binding to a functional conformational state of a protein of interest or protein fragment thereof, said method comprising the steps of: (a) Binding a function-modifying antibody to the target protein of interest or a fragment thereof to provide an antibody-constrained protein or fragment, wherein the antibody has binding kinetics with the protein or fragment which are such that it has a low dissociation rate constant, (b) Providing a test compound which has a low molecular weight, (c) Evaluating whether the test compound of step b) binds the antibody constrained protein or fragment, and (d) Select a compound from step c) based on the ability to bind to the protein or fragment thereof.

Abstract: The present invention relates neutralising epitopes of IL-17A and IL-17F and antibodies which bind those epitopes. The present invention also relates to the therapeutic uses of the antibody molecules and methods for producing them.
