Patent number: 7504485Abstract: Human antibodies, preferably recombinant human antibodies, that specifically bind to human interleukin-12 (hIL-12) are disclosed. Preferred antibodies have high affinity for hIL-12 and neutralize hIL-12 activity in vitro and in vivo. An antibody of the invention can be a full-length antibody or an antigen-binding portion thereof. The antibodies, or antibody portions, of the invention are useful for detecting hIL-12 and for inhibiting hIL-12 activity, e.g., in a human subject suffering from a disorder in which hIL-12 activity is detrimental. Nucleic acids, vectors and host cells for expressing the recombinant human antibodies of the invention, and methods of synthesizing the recombinant human antibodies, are also encompassed by the invention.Type: GrantFiled: July 1, 2004Date of Patent: March 17, 2009Assignee: Abbott GmbH & Co., KGInventors: Jochen G. Salfeld, Michael Roguska, Michael Paskind, Subhashis Banerjee, Daniel Edward Tracey, Michael White, Zehra Kaymakcalan, Boris Labkovsky, Paul Sakorafas, Geertruida M.

Publication number: 20090068172Abstract: Compositions and methods comprising proteins that bind specifically to adalimumab are disclosed herein. Adalimumab is a monoclonal antibody specific for the cytokine TNF-? and was developed to treat TNF-? mediated inflammatory diseases. In one aspect of the instant invention, the binding proteins are antibodies directed toward adalimumab. These antibodies, including binding fragments thereof, can be used in a clinical setting as well as for research and development. For example, these anti-adalimumab antibodies can be employed to neutralize adalimumab.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 27, 2008Publication date: March 12, 2009Inventors: Zehra Kaymakcalan, Limin Xiong

Patent number: 7491516Abstract: Antibodies having dual specificity for two different but structurally related antigens are provided. The antibodies can be, for example, entirely human antibodies, recombinant antibodies, or monoclonal antibodies. Preferred antibodies have dual specificity for IL-1? and IL-1? and neutralize IL-1? and IL-1? activity in vitro and in vivo. An antibody of the invention can be a full-length antibody or an antigen-binding portion thereof. Methods of making and methods of using the antibodies of the invention are also provided. The antibodies, or antibody portions, of the invention are useful for detecting two different but structurally related antigens (e.g., IL-1? and IL-1? ) and for inhibiting the activity of the antigens, e.g., in a human subject suffering from a disorder in which IL-1? and/or IL-1? activity is detrimental.Type: GrantFiled: June 28, 2001Date of Patent: February 17, 2009Assignee: Abbott LaboratoriesInventors: Albert Collinson, George Avgerinos, Richard Dixon, Tariq Ghayur, Zehra Kaymakcalan
