  • Publication number: 20200148731
    Abstract: The invention relates to compounds for use in the prevention and/or treatment of immunological diseases, particularly rheumatoid arthritis systemic lupus erythematosus and lupus nephritis, characterized by the subcutaneous administration of isoforms of C4BP lacking the beta chain or polypeptides comprising the CCP6 region of the alpha chain of C4BP no more than once a week or at a dose ranging from 0.24 mg/m2 to 9.99 mg/m2. The invention also relates to pharmaceutical compositions comprising from 0.45 mg to 18.90 mg of said compounds for the prevention and/or treatment of said diseases.

  • Patent number: 10106589
    Abstract: The invention relates to methods and reagents for the treatment of immunological diseases. In particular, the invention relates to isoforms of the C4b-binding protein (C4BP) lacking beta chains as well as to fragments and peptides derived thereof and to the uses of these polypeptides for the treatment of immunological diseases such as immunoinflammatory disease, sepsis, an autoimmune disease, transplant rejection, graft-versus-host disease and a hypersensitivity disease. Moreover, the invention relates also the use of factor H for the treatment of immunological diseases. In addition, the invention relates to tolerogenic dendritic cells obtained using the C4BP isoform lacking beta chain, the peptides and fragments thereof and factor H and to the therapeutic uses of said cells.
