  • Publication number: 20120322690
    Abstract: The invention relates to a method for manufacturing an anti-RhD recombinant polyclonal antibody composition (anti-RhD rpAb). The method comprises obtaining a collection of cells transfected with a library of anti-RhD antibody expression vectors, wherein each cell in the collection is capable of expressing from a VH and VL comprising nucleic acid segment, one member of the library, which encodes a distinct member of anti-RhD recombinant polyclonal antibody composition and is located at the same site in the genome of individual cells in said collection. The cells are cultured under suitable conditions for expression of the recombinant polyclonal antibody, which is obtained from the cells or culture supernatant. Nucleic acid segments encoding the anti-RhD rpAb are introduced into the cells by transfection with a library of vectors for site-specific integration.

  • Publication number: 20080206236
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a composition comprising two or more sets of target-specific recombinant polyclonal antibodies, each set being capable of binding to a distinct target, wherein said distinct targets are related to diseases, which may be treated or prevented by the use of antibodies, and wherein said composition is essentially free from immunoglobulin molecules that do not bind to one of said distinct targets. Further the application describes pharmaceutical and diagnostic compositions comprising said composition and use in prevention, treatment and/or amelioration of one or more diseases.

  • Publication number: 20060275766
    Abstract: The invention relates to a method for manufacturing a recombinant polyclonal protein composition, in particular a recombinant polyclonal antibody composition. The method comprises obtaining a collection of cells transfected with a library of variant nucleic acid sequences, wherein each cell in the collection is transfected with and capable of expressing one member of the library, which encodes a distinct member of a polyclonal protein that binds a particular antigen and which is located at the same single site in the genome of individual cells in said collection, wherein said nucleic acid sequence is not naturally associated with said cell in the collection. The cells are cultured under suitable conditions for expression of the polyclonal protein, which is obtained from the cells or culture supernatant. The nucleic acid sequence id introduced into the cells by transfection with a library of vectors for site-specific integration.

  • Publication number: 20050180967
    Abstract: A pharmaceutical composition for treating allergy is described. The composition comprises as an active ingredient a recombinant polyclonal antibody or a mixture of different monoclonal antibodies capable of reacting with or binding to an allergen together with one or more pharmaceutically acceptable excipients. The composition may be used topically as a solution, dispersion, powder, or in the form of microspheres. The polyclonal antibody is preferably a recombinant polyclonal antibody produced by phage display technology. The pairing of specific immunoglobulin variable region light chain and heavy chain maintained from the original polyclonal immune response or selected by panning using the allergen in question is preferably maintained by bulk transfer of the pairs into an expression vector.
