  • Patent number: 7381560
    Abstract: Disclosed are immunologically active antibodies directed against the CD20 antigen, as well as host cells comprising nucleic acid sequences encoding the light chains and heavy chains of immunologically active antibodies wherein the cell is capable of expressing and secreting an immunologically active chimeric anti-CD20 antibody and methods of using such host cells to make purified antibodies. The antibodies are useful for treating and diagnosing B cell disorders.

  • Publication number: 20040197331
    Abstract: Methods and compositions useful for inducing a cytotoxic T lymphocyte response (CTL) in a human or domesticated or agriculturally important animal. The method includes the steps of providing the antigen to which the CTL response is desired and providing a microfluidized antigen formulation which comprises, consists, or consists essentially of two or more of a stabilizing detergent, a micelle-forming agent, and an oil. This antigen formulation is preferably lacking, in an immunostimulating peptide component, or has sufficiently low levels of such a component that the desired CTL response is not diminished. This formulation is provided as a stable oil-in-water emulsion.

  • Patent number: 6682734
    Abstract: Disclosed herein are therapeutic treatment protocols designed for the treatment of B cell lymphoma. These protocols are based upon therapeutic strategies which include the use of administration of immunologically active mouse/human chimeric anti-CD20 antibodies, radiolabeled anti-CD20 antibodies, and cooperative strategies comprising the use of chimeric anti-CD20 antibodies and radiolabeled anti-CD20 antibodies.

  • Publication number: 20030012781
    Abstract: The present invention is directed to antibodies which bind human gp39, are antagonistic of the CD40/CD40L interaction, but are non-agonistic of T-cell activation. The present invention is further directed to the use of these antibodies as therapeutic agents. These antibodies are especially useful for treatment of autoimmune diseases; and an immunosuppressant during transplantation of heterologous cells, tissues or organs, cell therapy, and gene therapy.
