  • Patent number: 9670276
    Abstract: The disclosure provides binding proteins that specifically bind to IL-1? and IL-1?. These binding proteins can be organized into DVD-Igs. These proteins can be used to modulate the activity of IL-1? and/or IL-1? and can be used for the treatment immunological diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis, psoriasis, multiple sclerosis, and other autoimmune diseases. In addition, their uses in the amelioration and/or treatment of pain in an individual suffering from a disease or disorder associated with IL-1 accumulation.

  • Publication number: 20140178332
    Abstract: The present invention encompasses IL-12p40 binding proteins, particularly antibodies that bind human interleukin-12 (hIL-12) and/or human IL-23 (hIL-23). Specifically, the invention relates to antibodies that are chimeric, CDR grafted and humanized antibodies. Preferred antibodies have high affinity for hIL-12 and/or hIL-23 and neutralize h IL-12 and/or hIL-23 activity in vitro and in vivo. An antibody of the invention can be a full-length antibody or an antigen-binding portion thereof. Method of making and method of using the antibodies of the invention are also provided. The antibodies, or antibody portions, of the invention are useful for detecting hIL-12 and/or hIL-23 and for inhibiting hIL-12 and/or hIL-23 activity, e.g., in a human subject suffering from a disorder in which hIL-12 and/or hIL-23 activity is detrimental.

  • Publication number: 20140154270
    Abstract: The present invention is directed to methods for purifying a non-human antibody, or antigen binding portion thereof, exhibiting weak binding strength and low binding capacity for Protein A chromatography media. In one aspect, a kosmotropic salt solution is employed to promote the hydrophobic interaction between the non-human antibody, or antigen binding portion thereof, and the Protein A ligand, thereby enhancing the binding of the non-human antibody, or antigen binding portion thereof, to the Protein A chromatography media. In another aspect, the concentration of the non-human antibody, or antigen binding portion thereof, in a sample comprising the antibody, or antigen binding portion thereof, exposed to a Protein A chromatography media is increased to enhance the binding of the non-human antibody, or antigen binding portion thereof, on the Protein A chromatography media.
