Abstract: The disclosure is directed to novel predictive methods and personalized therapies for treating dry eye disease (DED). Specifically, this disclosure relates to methods of treating a patient having DED by selectively administering a TNF? antagonist, e.g., a TNF? antibody, such as LME636, to the patient on the basis of that patient being genetically predisposed to have a favorable response to treatment with the TNF? antagonist. Also disclosed herein are transmittable forms of information, diagnostic methods, and kits useful in predicting the likelihood that a patient having DED will respond to treatment with a TNF? antagonist, e.g., a TNF? antibody, such as LME636.

Abstract: The present invention relates to antibodies and fragments thereof that target the complement C3. More specifically, anti-C3 antibodies and methods of use for the treatment of various diseases or disorders are disclosed.

Abstract: Antigen-binding proteins with specificity to complement C3 and C3b are provided. Methods of treating complement C3-mediated diseases and disorders, methods of inhibiting the activity of the complement Classical pathway (CP), Lectin pathway (LP), and/or Alternative pathway (AP), and methods of inhibiting the activity of choroidal-localized complement C3 are also provided.
