Patent number: 9587023Abstract: The invention relates to recombinant monovalent antibodies which are heterodimers of a first protein chain comprising the variable domain of the heavy chain of an antibody of interest and the CH2 and CH3 domains of an IgG immunoglobulin and a second protein chain comprising the variable domain of the light chain of said immunoglobulin of interest and the CH2 and CH3 domains of said IgG immunoglobulin. These antibodies can be used in particular as therapeutic agents in all cases where monovalent binding to a ligand such a cellular receptor is required.Type: GrantFiled: January 13, 2010Date of Patent: March 7, 2017Assignees: OSE Immunotherapeutics, Institut National de la Sante et de la Recherche Medicale (INSERM)Inventors: Bernard Vanhove, Caroline Mary, Flora Coulon

Patent number: 9562098Abstract: The invention relates to humanized antibodies directed against the human lymphocyte receptor CD28. When used in a monovalent form these antibodies are antagonists, i.e. capable of blocking of the CD28/B7 interaction, without activating CD28. These antibodies can be used in particular as therapeutic agents for blocking T cell activation through the CD28 receptor.Type: GrantFiled: July 8, 2014Date of Patent: February 7, 2017Assignees: OSE Immunotherapeutics, Institut National de la Sante et de la Recherche Medicale (INSERM)Inventors: Caroline Mary, Nicolas Poirier, Bernard Vanhove

Patent number: 9447182Abstract: The invention concerns antibodies directed against CD127, I.e. the alpha chain of the receptor for interleukin7 (IL-7), especially the receptor for human IL-7 expressed on human cells (designated human IL-7R alpha or IL-7Ra) or the TSLP receptor. The antibodies of the invention have cytotoxic activity against CD127 positive cells. The invention also relates to the use of these antibodies in order to deplete subpopulations of T lymphocytes as a result of cytotoxic action of the antibodies, through ADCC and optionally through CDC. Accordingly the invention concerns the use of the antibodies in the treatment of transplant rejection, autoimmune diseases, allergic diseases, lymphoma or cancer when these pathologies are associated with CD127 positive cells.Type: GrantFiled: October 4, 2012Date of Patent: September 20, 2016Assignees: OSE IMMUNOTHERAPEUTICS, INSTITUT NATIONAL DE LA SANTE ET LA RECHERCHE MEDICALEInventors: Sophie Brouard, Le Hoa Mai, Caroline Mary, Nicolas Poirier, Jean-Paul Soulillou, Bernard Vanhove

Patent number: 9423330Abstract: A method of determining the non-propagation threshold of fatigue cracks at high frequency, wherein cyclic loading is exerted on at least one testpiece having an elliptical hole in a testpiece zone, the elliptical hole having a notch at one end and the testpiece being held between two rigid masses with two rigid pre-stress plates being arranged on either side of the at least one testpiece and each fastened at its two ends to the two rigid masses, which cyclic loading is at a frequency that is selected as being equal to the resonant frequency of the assembly including the testpiece, the masses, and the stress plates, so as to generate a fatigue crack from the notch, and then once it has been observed that the crack has stopped propagating, the final length of the crack is measured and a chart is used to determine the non-propagation threshold.Type: GrantFiled: August 30, 2013Date of Patent: August 23, 2016Assignees: SNECMA, TURBOMECA, CENTRE NATIONAL DE LA RECHERCHE SCIENTIFIQUE, ECOLE NORMALE SUPERIEURE DE CACHANInventors: Caroline Mary, Christophe Cluzel, Raul Fernando De Moura Pinho, Arnaud Longuet, Sylvie Pommier, Francois Vogel

Publication number: 20090299783Abstract: A system for interfacing with an information management tool. The system includes a memory for storing information regarding a plurality of programs, each program having at least one capability component. A processor is configured to generate a portfolio of projected capabilities by aggregating the capability components from the plurality of programs, and to create a visualization of each of the projected capabilities at discrete points in time for: analyzing an impact of each projected capability on each of the remaining projected capabilities to identify projected capability implications, and analyzing effects of reallocating resources among the programs to determine changes in the projected capability implications. The system also includes a user interface for displaying projected capability implications due to the effect of reallocating resources.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 15, 2009Publication date: December 3, 2009Applicant: BAE Systems PLCInventors: Robert James BARTON, Andrew John DAW, Caroline Mary GOWING, Owen David SUDLOW, Fleur Martinique ETCHELLS, Samuel Davis SIMPSON
