Abstract: The present invention provides methods of reducing or decreasing the annualized bleeding rate of a human subject having hemophilia by administering a long acting Factor VIII polypeptide. The long-acting FVIII polypeptide can be used for individual prophylaxis, weekly prophylaxis, episodic (on-demand) treatment, or perioperative management of hemophilia. The present invention relates generally to the field of therapeutics for hemostatic disorders.

Abstract: In various embodiments, the present invention provides methods and compositions for treatment of autoimmune diseases, including rheumatoid arthritis, for example comprising administering to a patient in need of such treatment a TACI-Ig fusion molecule. In one embodiment, the TACI-Ig fusion molecule is administered in amount sufficient to slow, suppress or inhibit proliferation-inducing functions of BlyS and APRIL.

Abstract: The present invention provides methods and compositions for treatment of B-cell malignancies, including non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, comprising administering to a patient in need of the treatment a TACI-Ig fusion molecule in amount sufficient to suppress proliferation-inducing functions of BlyS and APRIL.

Abstract: In various embodiments, the present invention provides methods, compositions, dosing, and administration schedules for treatment of autoimmune diseases, including systemic erythematosus (SLE), for example, comprising administering to a patient in need of such treatment a TACI-Ig fusion molecule such as atacicept. In one embodiment, the TACI-Ig fusion molecule is administered in amount sufficient to slow, suppress or inhibit proliferation-inducing functions of BLyS and APRIL, in particular the use of multiple administrations of the fusion molecule at relatively low dose over the course of the treatment.
