  • Patent number: 10444246
    Abstract: Provided are a kit for measuring a titer of a human antibody, a humanized antibody, or a human Fc-fusion protein in human plasma or serum, and a method for measuring a titer of a human Fc-containing protein in human plasma or serum using the same, and more specifically, a kit for measuring a titer of human Fc-containing protein in human plasma or serum, the kit including a diluent for sample, a diluent for conjugate, and a cleansing solution and being used in analysis through an indirect enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (indirect ELISA), and a method for measuring a titer of human Fc-containing protein in human plasma or serum using the same.

  • Publication number: 20190153117
    Abstract: Disclosed are epitopes of the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) and the use thereof. The epitopes are highly preserved, and located in the domain closely related to binding with an epidermal growth factor (EGF). Therefore, vaccine compositions comprising the epitopes or compositions comprising antibodies to the epitopes may efficiently block a signal transduction caused by binding of EGF and EGRF, and thus can be highly valuably used in treating various diseases such as cancer. An antibody bound to the epitopes of the present invention may efficiently inhibit binding of various EGFR ligands such as not only EGF but also TGF-?, AR, BTC, EPR and HB-EGF, with EGFR, and therefore can be used in treating various diseases resulting from an activation of EGFR caused by binding not only with EGF but also with other EGFR ligands.

  • Publication number: 20170260257
    Abstract: The present invention provides an antibody that binds to the surface antigen (HBsAg) of hepatitis B virus (HBV) to neutralize the hepatitis B virus. The surface antigen-binding site of the antibody was found to play a very important role in viral replication, and when a mutation in the site occurs, viral replication is significantly inhibited, and thus at least HBV virus cannot cause a mutation in the site. In the present invention, it was confirmed by the use of patient-derived virus that the antibody of the present invention binds to either YMDD mutant hepatitis B virus, produced by conventional viral replication inhibitors, or G145R HBsAg mutants to which plasma-derived HBIG (hepatitis B immunoglobulin) does not bind. In addition, the in vivo effect of the antibody of the present invention was examined using chimpanzees which are unique animal models for hepatitis B virus. As a result, it was found that the antibody has the effect of neutralizing even wild-type hepatitis B virus in the in vivo model.

  • Publication number: 20160311862
    Abstract: Disclosed are an epitope specific to hepatitis B virus (HBV) and use thereof. The disclosed epitope is a conservative position on which mutagenesis does not occur and, therefore, a composition including an antibody to the foregoing epitope or a vaccine composition including the epitope has very low possibility of causing degradation of curing efficacy due to HBV mutation, thus being very useful for HBV treatment.
