Efficacy and Safety of Treatment With an Anti-M2e Monoclonal Antibody in Experimental Human Influenza

Efficacy and safety of treatment with an anti-m2e monoclonal antibody in experimental human influenza.

BACKGROUND The efficacy of TCN-032, a human monoclonal antibody targeting a conserved epitope on M2e, was explored in experimental human influenza. METHODS Healthy volunteers were inoculated with influenza A/Wisconsin/67/2005 (H3N2) and received a single dose of the study drug, TCN-032, or placebo 24 hours later. Subjects were monitored for symptoms, viral shedding, and safety, including cyto...

Safety and efficacy of the monoclonal anti-interleukin-5 antibody SCH55700 in the treatment of patients with hypereosinophilic syndrome.

Four patients with hypereosinophilic syndrome (HES) refractory to or intolerant of treatment with conventional therapy were treated with a single 1 mg/kg dose of SCH55700. SCH55700 was extremely well tolerated. Two of the 4 patients responded with a fall in eosinophil counts to within the normal range within 48 hours of receiving the drug, accompanied by marked improvement in clinical signs and...

production and characterization of new anti-human cd20 monoclonal antibody

the b-cell cd20 antigen is one of the most reliable surface targets in immunotherapy of b lymphoma. in this project, we studied the production and characterization of a new monoclonal antibody against chimeric human cd20 extra loops (hcd20 exl). the results showed that clone c12h, igg2/k isotype reacted with the antigen in elisa and immunoblot. the kd value was  found to be 2×10-9m and flow cyt...
