Human antibody molecules for IL-13

There are described recombinant VH and VL domains of human antibodies that bind IL-13. A series of proteins characterised by three CDR in each VH/VL are described. Preferably the molecules are single chain Fv or antibody molecules. Nucleic acids expressing the VH and VL domains are selected from pha...

More Information
Summary:There are described recombinant VH and VL domains of human antibodies that bind IL-13. A series of proteins characterised by three CDR in each VH/VL are described. Preferably the molecules are single chain Fv or antibody molecules. Nucleic acids expressing the VH and VL domains are selected from phage display libraries. Neutralization potency of the resulting scFv's was tested in TF proliferation assays. The fragments and antibodies showed efficacy for IL-13 binding in murine models of pulmonary inflammation, the primate (cynomolgus) model of dermal allergy, IgE release from B cells and histamine potentiation in Ca2+ signalling in smooth muscle. Mice transgenic for human IL-13 antibodies and epitope mapping studies are also described. It is envisaged that the anti 11-13 reagents may be used to treat asthma, atopic dermatitis, allergic rhinitis, fibrosis, IBS, or Hodgkin's lymphoma.
