  • Patent number: 10752702
    Abstract: The present invention provides antibodies that bind to Tie2 and methods of using same. According to certain embodiments of the invention, the antibodies are fully human antibodies that bind to human Tie2 and block the interaction between Tie2 and one or more Tie2 ligands such as angiopoietin 1 (Ang1), angiopoietin 2 (Ang2), angiopoietin 3 (Ang3) and/or angiopoietin 4 (Ang4). The antibodies of the invention are useful, inter alia, for the treatment of diseases and disorders associated with one or more Tie2 biological activities including angiogenesis. In certain embodiments, pairs of activating Tie-2 antibodies showed an additive effect on the treatment of influenza infection when combined with anti-influenza HA. In other embodiments, prophylactic administration pairs of activating Tie2 antibodies delayed death and improved survival in a lethal model of E. coli intoxication (sepsis) over isotype/untreated controls.
