AI Technical Summary

Benefits of technology

This patent is about an isolated antibody that can attach to a protein called Lp-PLA2, which is associated with a disease called atherosclerosis. The antibody was obtained by culturing cells and can be produced in bacteria or mammalian cells. It can be used to detect or diagnose atherosclerosis by binding to Lp-PLA2 in a sample taken from a patient. The patent also covers methods for making the antibody and compositions containing it for use in diagnosis and treatment of atherosclerosis.

Problems solved by technology

Stroke is a leading cause of death and disability in the world.
These attacks leave a large number of survivors with disabilities.
Peripheral vascular disease (PVD) is a nearly pandemic condition that has the potential to cause loss of limb, or even loss of life.
While tPA or other thrombolytics can reduce disability from a heart attack or stroke, there is also a higher risk of bleeding.
When this occurred, there was a 45 percent fatality rate.
Stroke symptoms alone are insufficient to definitely diagnose stroke and, in patients with a stroke mimic, tPA use results only in potential adverse effects without any possibility of benefit.

Characterization of Antibodies

Pairing of Lp-PLA2 Antibodies

[0257]To evaluate and characterize Lp-PLA2 antibodies of the present invention a luminex pairing assay was performed as set forth in Miller et al., Journal of Immuno Methods 365 (2011) 118-125, the content of which is hereby incorporated by reference in its entirety. Anti-Lp-PLA2 antibodies 2C10 and 4B4 (diaDexus, South San Francisco, Calif.) were used as reference antibodies. The pairing assay identified antibodies which bound Lp-PLA2 antigen and if antibodies bound unique epitopes or competed for binding to epitopes on Lp-PLA2.

[0258]Raw data was sorted as set forth in Miller et al and the pattern of reactivities demonstrated that Lp-PLA2 antibodies group into several ‘bins’.

[0259]Bin 1 comprises B38, and B229;

[0260]Bin 2 comprises B144, B6, B31, B40, B44, B48, B71, B78, B81, B154, B194, B213, B224, B228, B281, and C10;

[0261]Bin 3 comprises B159, A201, B17, B26, B69, B130, B132, B142, B201, B236, B238, B248, B251, B280, and...

Deposits

Deposit of Cell Lines and DNA

[0277]The following hybridoma cell lines were deposited with the American Type Culture Collection (ATCC) located at 10801 University Boulevard, Manassas, Va. 20110-2209, U.S.A., and accorded accession numbers.

TABLE 2ATCC depositsHybridomaATCC Accession No.Deposit Date

[0278]The names of the deposited hybridoma cell lines above may be shortened for convenience of reference. E.g. A10.3 corresponds to LpPLA2.A10.3. These hybridomas correspond to the clones (with their full names) listed in Table 2. Subclones of hybridomas are listed which have the same characteristics and properties of parental clones. Reference to a parent clone or hybridoma producing an anti-Lp-PLA2 antibody, such as LpPLA2.A10 or LpPLA2.A2, includes all subclones such as those listed in Table 2 above.

[0279]These deposits were made under the provisions of the Budapest Treaty on the International Recognition of the Deposit of Microorganisms for the Purpose of Patent Procedure and th...
