Abstract: A method can treat a patient suffering from at least one of fibrosis and a fibrotic disorder. The method includes administering a therapeutically effective amount of an anti-?v integrin antibody DI17E6, or a biologically active variant or modification thereof, to the patient.

Abstract: The invention relates to the prophylaxis and/or treatment of fibrosis and/or fibrotic diseases by means of antibodies. Above all, the invention relates to the administration of an anti-alpha-v integrin (receptor) antibody to patients suffering from fibrosis and/or fibrotic diseases, including but not limited to systemic sclerosis (SSc). More specifically, the instant invention relates to the treatment of fibrotic diseases of the skin, lung, heart, liver and/or kidney by means of said antibody. Even more specifically, the instant invention relates to the administration of a recombinant, de-immunized monoclonal antibody targeting ?v-integrins patients suffering from systemic sclerosis, including, but not limited to systemic sclerosis of the skin, lung, heart and/or kidney by means of the anti-alpha-v integrin antibody DI17E6 and structural mutants or modifications thereof.

Abstract: Methods of treatment of colorectal cancer can include the administration of the anti-alpha-v integrin (receptor) antibody Abituzumab. Preferably, the methods of treating colorectal cancer can include treating Stage II-IV colorectal cancer, metastatic colorectal cancer, left-sided colorectal cancer and/or left-sided metastatic colorectal cancer, involving the administration of said Abituzumab to patients in need thereof. Abituzumab is also useful for the manufacture of a medicament for treating colorectal cancer, preferably colorectal cancer as defined herein. Abituzumab is further useful for the manufacture of a medicament for treating colorectal cancer in combination with suitable targeted therapy concepts, such as growth factor or growth factor receptor targeting monoclonal antibodies, and/or chemotherapy.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to albumin fusion protein including an angiogenesis inhibiting peptide, or a fragment or variant thereof, and albumin, or a fragment or variant thereof. The fusion proteins exhibit extended shelf-life and/or extended or therapeutic activity in solution. The disclosure includes therapeutic albumin fusion proteins, compositions, pharmaceutical compositions, formulations and kits, as well as nucleic acid molecules encoding the albumin fusion proteins, vectors containing these nucleic acids, host cells transformed with these nucleic acids and vectors, and methods of making the albumin fusion proteins using these nucleic acids, vectors, and/or host cells. The disclosure further relates to compositions and methods for inhibiting proliferation of vascular endothelial cells and tumor angiogenesis induced cell fusion.

Abstract: The invention relates to proteins comprising angiogenesis inhibiting peptides, such as endostatin peptides (including, but not limited to, fragments and variants thereof), which exhibit anti-retroviral activity, fused or conjugated to albumin (including, but not limited to fragments or variants of albumin). These fusion proteins are herein collectively referred to as ‘albumin fusion proteins of the invention.’ These fusion proteins are herein collectively referred to as ‘albumin fusion proteins of the invention.’ These fusion proteins exhibit extended shelf-life and/or extended or therapeutic activity in solution. The invention encompasses therapeutic albumin fusion proteins, compositions, pharmaceutical compositions, formulations and kits.
