Patent number: 11572411Abstract: The invention provides compositions and methods useful for the depletion of CD117+ cells and for the treatment of various hematopoietic diseases, metabolic disorders, cancers, and autoimmune diseases, among others. Described herein are antibodies, antigen-binding fragments, and conjugates thereof that can be applied to effect the treatment of these conditions, for instance, by depleting a population of CD117+ cells in a patient, such as a human. The compositions and methods described herein can be used to treat a disorder directly, for instance, by depleting a population of CD117+ cancer cells or autoimmune cells. The compositions and methods described herein can also be used to prepare a patient for hematopoietic stem cell transplant therapy and to improve the engraftment of hematopoietic stem cell transplants by selectively depleting endogenous hematopoietic stem cells prior to the transplant procedure.Type: GrantFiled: November 17, 2020Date of Patent: February 7, 2023Assignee: Magenta Therapeutics, Inc.Inventors: Bradley R.

Patent number: 11102229Abstract: An illustrative embodiment of a computer-implemented process for identifying a request invalidating a session excludes all marked logout requests of a Web application, crawls an identified next portion of the Web application and responsive to a determination, in one instance, that the state of the crawl is out of session, logs in to the Web application. The computer-implemented process further selects all crawl requests sent since a last time the crawl was in-session, excluding all marked logout requests and responsive to a determination that requests remain, crawls a selected next unprocessed request. Responsive to a determination, in the next instance, that state of the crawl is out of session and the selected request meets logout request criteria, the computer-implemented process marks the selected request as a logout request.Type: GrantFiled: November 30, 2019Date of Patent: August 24, 2021Assignee: INTERNATIONAL BUSINESS MACHINES CORPORATIONInventors: Paul Ionescu, Iosif Viorel Onut, Ori Segal, Wayne Duncan Smith

Patent number: 10901730Abstract: Identifying equivalent JavaScript events includes receiving source code containing two JavaScript events for equivalency analysis, extracting an HTML element containing an event from each JavaScript event and analyzing the extracted HTML elements. Responsive to a determination that the HTML elements are of a same type according to equivalency criteria B, and responsive to a determination that the HTML elements have a same number of attributes according to equivalency criteria C, a determination is made whether JavaScript function calls of each JavaScript event are similar according to equivalency criteria A. Responsive to a determination that the JavaScript function calls are similar according to equivalency criteria A, and responsive to a determination that the other attributes of the HTML elements satisfy equivalency criteria D, the JavaScript events are identified as equivalent.Type: GrantFiled: November 20, 2018Date of Patent: January 26, 2021Assignee: INTERNATIONAL BUSINESS MACHINES CORPORATIONInventors: Gregor von Bochmann, Nevon C.
