Abstract: Disclosed is a method and composition for treating a disease associated with target cells expressing CD138 in a multiple dose regimen. An immunoconjugate comprising an engineered targeting antibody targeting CD138 expressing cells and an effector molecule is administered in a multiple dose regimen. The multiple dose regimen comprises at least two doses and the aggregate dose administered within an active treatment cycle is an aggregate maximum tolerable dose (AMTD) or a fraction of the AMTD. The AMTD and/or said fraction exceeds the dose resulting in dose limiting toxicity (DLT) and/or exceeds the maximum tolerable dose (MTD) when the immunoconjugate is administered as a single dose, including as part of a multiple single dose regimen within said active treatment cycle.

Abstract: Disclosed are immunoconjugates having in particular specificity for CD138 expressed on target cells and which display homogenous targeting. The immunoconjugates may be sterially hindered and/or contain a cleavable linker.

Abstract: Disclosed are methods and treatment regimes that include the administration of immunconjugates targeting CD138 to combat diseases. The immunoconjugate is either used as the sole active ingredient, as part of a treatment regime or as part of an anticancer combination.

Abstract: The present invention discloses three novel proteins regulating the energy homeostasis and the metabolism of triglycerides, and polynucleotides, which identify and encode the proteins disclosed in this invention. The invention also relates to vectors, host cells, antibodies, and recombinant methods for producing the polypeptides and polynucleotides of the invention. The invention also relates to the use of these sequences in the diagnosis, study, prevention, and treatment of diseases and disorders related to body-weight regulation, for example, but not limited to, metabolic diseases such as obesity, as well as related disorders such as adipositas, eating disorders, wasting syndromes (cachexia), pancreatic dysfunctions (such as diabetes mellitus), hypertension, pancreatic dysfunctions, arteriosclerosis, coronary artery disease (CAD), coronary heart disease, hypercholesterolemia, dyslipidemia, osteoarthritis, gallstones, cancer, e.g. cancers of the reproductive organs, sleep apnea, and others.
