  • Publication number: 20110158985
    Abstract: The present invention provides methods for preventing, managing, treating and/or ameliorating a Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV) infection (e.g., acute RSV disease, or a RSV upper respiratory tract infection (URI) and/or lower respiratory tract infection (LRI)), otitis media (preferably, stemming from, caused by or associated with a RSV infection, such as a RSV URI and/or LRI), and/or a symptom or respiratory condition relating thereto (e.g., asthma, wheezing, and/or reactive airway disease (RAD)) in a subject, comprising administering to said human an effective amount of one or more antibodies that immunospecifically bind to one or more RSV antigens with a high affinity and/or high avidity. In some embodiments, one or more antibodies comprise a modified IgG constant domain, or FcRn-binding fragment thereof resulting in longer in vivo serum half-life.

  • Publication number: 20110008329
    Abstract: The present invention provides methods for managing, treating and/or ameliorating a respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) infection (e.g., acute RSV disease, or a RSV upper respiratory tract infection (URI) and/or lower respiratory tract infection (LRI)), and/or a symptom or a long-term respiratory condition relating thereto (e.g., asthma, wheezing, reactive airway disease (RAD), or chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD)) in a subject, comprising administering to said human an effective amount of one or more antibodies that immunospecifically bind to one or more RSV antigens with a high affinity and/or high avidity and further comprise a modified IgG constant domain, or FcRn-binding fragment thereof, to not only decrease RSV infection, but also decrease the pro-inflammatory epithelial cell immune responses in order to mitigate the later development of asthma and/or wheezing and/or COPD in said patient.
