Publication number: 20240376228Abstract: Various bispecific antibodies that specifically bind to both blood coagulation factor IX/activated blood coagulation factor IX and blood coagulation factor X and functionally substitute for the cofactor function of blood coagulation factor VIII, that is, the function to promote activation of blood coagulation factor X by activated blood coagulation factor IX, were produced. From these antibodies, multispecific antigen-binding molecules having a high activity of functionally substituting for blood coagulation factor VIII were successfully discovered.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 7, 2024Publication date: November 14, 2024Applicant: Chugai Seiyaku Kabushiki KaishaInventors: Tomoyuki Igawa, Zenjiro Sampei, Tetsuo Kojima, Tetsuhiro Soeda, Atsushi Muto, Takehisa Kitazawa, Yukiko Nishida, Chifumi Imai, Tsukasa Suzuki, Kazutaka Yoshihashi

Patent number: 11827699Abstract: The present inventors newly discovered that even if an antigen-binding molecule inhibits in vitro some of the physiological activities of an antigen having two or more physiological activities without inhibiting the remaining physiological activities, the molecule can promote elimination of the antigen from blood (from serum or plasma) and as a result reduce the physiological activities in vivo, when the antigen-binding molecule is conferred with the properties: (i) of binding to human FcRn under an acidic pH range condition; (ii) of binding under a neutral pH range condition to human Fc receptor stronger than native human IgG, and (iii) that its antigen-binding activity alters according to the ion concentration.Type: GrantFiled: July 5, 2018Date of Patent: November 28, 2023Assignee: Chugai Seiyaku Kabushiki KaishaInventors: Tomoyuki Igawa, Atsuhiko Maeda, Shigero Tamba, Takehisa Kitazawa, Takeshi Baba, Yoshinao Ruike, Junichi Nezu

Patent number: 11214623Abstract: The present inventors attempted to produce antibodies that neutralize the activity of a substance having an activity of functionally substituting for FVIII to be used for the method of measuring the reactivity of FVIII in the presence of a substance having an activity of functionally substituting for FVIII. As a result, the inventors discovered that by using the produced antibodies, FVIII activity in the plasma of a hemophilia A patient can be evaluated accurately by one-stage clotting assay based on APTT, and also that FVIII inhibitor titer in the plasma of a hemophilia A patient carrying a FVIII inhibitor can be evaluated accurately by Bethesda assay based on APTT.Type: GrantFiled: September 24, 2015Date of Patent: January 4, 2022Assignee: Chugai Seiyaku Kabushiki KaishaInventors: Tomoyuki Igawa, Atsushi Muto, Takehisa Kitazawa, Tsukasa Suzuki

Patent number: 11078518Abstract: Various methods for evaluating hemostatic effect and various blood coagulation initiation reagents were studied to construct a method for evaluating blood coagulation reaction mediated by a substance having an activity of substituting for coagulation factor VIII (FVIII). As a result, it was discovered that by using a coagulation initiation reagent containing activated coagulation factor XI (FXIa) and phospholipids, the effect of a substance having an activity of substituting for coagulation factor VIII (FVIII) on blood coagulation reaction can be evaluated using the amount of thrombin generated in the blood sample as an indicator.Type: GrantFiled: September 26, 2013Date of Patent: August 3, 2021Assignees: Chugai Seiyaku Kabushiki Kaisha, Public University Corporation Nara Medical UniversityInventors: Tetsuhiro Soeda, Takehisa Kitazawa, Midori Shima
