Christoph Heusser 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).

  • Patent number: 12054555
    Abstract: Anti-BAFFR antibodies are formulated as lyophilisate or liquid formulation. The lyophilisates can be reconstituted to give a solution with a high concentration of the antibody active ingredient for delivery to a patient without high levels of antibody aggregation. The lyophilisate can be reconstituted with an aqueous reconstituent to provide an aqueous composition in which the antibody has a concentration of at least 50 mg/ml. The lyophilisate or aqueous pharmaceutical composition may include one or more of a sugar, a buffering agent, a surfactant, and/or a free amino acid.

  • Publication number: 20220298251
    Abstract: The present invention relates to antibodies that specifically bind to the BAFF receptor (BAFFR). The invention more specifically relates to specific antibodies that are BAFFR antagonists with in vivo B cell depleting activity and compositions and methods of use for said antibodies to treat pathological disorders that can be treated by killing or depleting B cells, such as systemic lupus erythematosus or rheumatoid arthritis or other autoimmune diseases or lymphomas, leukemias and myelomas.
