  • Patent number: 6623981
    Abstract: This invention relates to the detection of patients at risk for developing integrin antagonist/agonist mediated disease states. This invention relates to assays useful for the detection in a patient bodily fluid sample of drug-dependent antibodies which bind to integrins, or intergrin-associated proteins or complexes thereof in the presence of an integrin antagonist/agonist. This invention also relates to assays useful for the detection in a patient bodily fluid sample of drug-dependent antibodies (DDABS) that bind to integrins, including the platelet glycoprotein IIb/IIIa (GPIIb/IIIa), in the presence of a integrin agonist and/or antagonist. This invention also relates to procedures for identifying integrin antagonists/agonists that are less prone to elicit integrin antagonist/agonist mediated disease states. This invention also relates to procedures which increase the recovery of integrin-directed antibodies in body fluids, resulting in an increased sensitivity and specificity of DDAB detection assays.
