  • Publication number: 20230384310
    Abstract: The disclosure relates to total antibody assays, including screening assays and confirmatory assays, for the detection of anti-AAV (e.g. anti-AAV6) antibodies in a subject as it relates to pre- and post-treatment total antibody levels. The disclosure also relates to methods of treating a subject with a gene therapy comprising a rAAV (e.g. rAAV6) vector.

  • Patent number: 7243112
    Abstract: This invention provides an advanced platform for the analysis of biological data that emphasizes pathway mapping and relationship inference based upon data acquired from multiple diverse sources. The platform employs a bioinformatic system that integrates data from the diverse sources, connecting related genes and proteins and inferring biological functions in the context of global cellular processes.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: June 14, 2002
    Date of Patent: July 10, 2007
    Assignee: Rigel Pharmaceuticals, Inc.
    Inventors: Kunbin Qu, Nan Lin, Yanmei Lu, Donald G. Payan
  • Patent number: 6891022
    Abstract: The present invention relates to nucleotide sequences, including expressed sequence tags (ESTs), oligonucleotide probes, polypeptides, antagonists and agonists vectors and host cells expressing, and immunoadhesions and antibodies to PRO201, PRO308 or PRO309 polypeptides. The invention further relates to compositions and method for the diagnosis and treatment of neoplastic cell growth and proliferation in mammals, including humans. The invention is based in part on the identification of genes that are amplified in the genome of tumor cells. Such gene amplification is expected to be associated with the overexpression of the gene product and contribute to tumorigenesis. Accordingly, the proteins encoded by the amplified genes are believed to be useful targents for the diagnosis and/or treatment (including prevention) of certain tumors (e.g., cancer) and may act as predictors of the prognosis of tumor treatment.

    Abstract: The present invention relates to nucleotide sequences, including expressed sequence tags (ESTs), oligonucleotide probes, polypeptides, antagonists and agonists vectors and host cells expressing, and immunoadhesions and antibodies to PRO201, PRO308 or PRO309 polypeptides. The invention further relates to compositions and method for the diagnosis and treatment of neoplasfic cell growth and proliferation in mammals, including humans. The invention is based in part on the identification of genes that are amplified in the genome of tumor cells. Such gene amplification is expected to be associated with the overexpression of the gene product and contribute to tumorigenesis. Accordingly, the proteins encoded by the amplified genes are believed to be useful targets for the diagnosis and/or treatment (including prevention) of certain tumors (e.g. cancer) and may act as predictors of the prognosis of tumor treatment.
