Brett A. Premack has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Compositions and methods for detecting and treating diseases and conditions related to chemokine receptors
    Patent number: 7442512
    Abstract: The present invention provides methods for identifying an agent that specifically binds and/or modulates one topology of chemokine receptor but not a second topology of the receptor. Such agents are useful as therapeutics for diseases or conditions associated with a particular chemokine receptor topology. Moreover, the agents are useful for detecting a particular topology of a chemokine receptor, thereby diagnosing disease or predisposition for a disease. In addition, the agents are useful for identifying and isolating cells that express a particular topology of a chemokine receptor.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: September 16, 2002
    Date of Patent: October 28, 2008
    Assignee: ChemoCentryx, Inc.
    Inventors: Jennifer M. Burns, Zhenhua Miao, Zheng Wei, Maureen C. Howard, Brett A. Premack, Thomas J. Schall
