  • Publication number: 20040198961
    Abstract: The present invention includes Fc&egr; fragments conjugated with FC&ggr; fragments, for example, Fc&egr;1-Hinge-FcE2-FcE3-FcE4-FCy; Hinge-FcE2-FcE3-FcE4-Fcy; FC&egr;2-Fc&egr;3-Fc&egr;4-FC&ggr;; FC&egr;2-Fc&egr;3-Fc&ggr;; FC&egr;3-Fc&ggr;; and FC&egr;3-Fc&egr;4-FC&ggr;, or any derivative or peptide, which has equivalent immunological function. The Fc&ggr; fragment may be a fragment of any of the IgG subclasses (IgG1 I IgG2, IgG3, or IgG4), preferably IgG1 or IgG3, wherein the fragment binds Fc&ggr;RIIB. The present invention also includes compositions suitable for administering to a patient suffering from an allergic disease comprising the fusion protein construct in a pharmaceutical composition including, for example, an excipient, diluant, or carrier. This treatment may be combined with anti-IgE therapy or allergen immunotherapy.
