Follicle Stimulating Hormone Superagonists

US Patent:
2007021, Sep 20, 2007
Filed:
Mar 18, 2005
Appl. No.:
10/593466
Inventors:
Mariusz Szkudlinski - Rockville MD, US
Bruce Weintraub - Rockville MD, US
International Classification:
A61K 38/24, C07H 21/04, C07K 14/59, C12N 15/63, C12N 5/06, C12N 5/08
US Classification:
514002000, 435320100, 435325000, 435375000, 530399000, 536023510
Abstract:
This invention provides superactive analogs of FSH demonstrating enhanced bioactivity both in vitro and in vivo as compared to wild type FSH. In particular, the analogs of the invention demonstrate at least a ten fold increase in potency or at least a ten percent increase in maximal efficacy as compared to wild type protein. The analogs are particularly useful for treating subjects showing low FSH receptor expression or poor FSH receptor responsiveness, and for the treatment of any condition associated with glycoprotein hormone activity.

Filed:
Mar 20, 2001
Appl. No.:
09/813398
Inventors:
Bruce Weintraub - Rockville MD, US
Mariusz Szkudlinski - Potomac MD, US
International Classification:
A61K038/22, C07H021/04, C12P021/02, C12N005/06, C07K014/575
US Classification:
530/397000, 514/008000, 536/023500, 435/069400, 435/325000, 435/320100
Abstract:
Compositions and methods based on mutant Cystine Knot Growth Factors (CKGFs) comprising amino acid substitutions relative to the wild type hormone/growth factor. Mutated glycoprotein hormones, including thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) and chorionic gonadotropin (CG) are disclosed as exemplary mutant CKGFs. Mutant TSH heterodimers and hCH heterodimers possessed modified bioactivities, including superagonist activity. Accordingly, the present invention provides methods for using mutant CKGFs, CKGF analogs, fragments, and derivatives thereof for treating or preventing diseases. Pharmaceutical and diagnostic compositions, methods of using mutant TSH heterodimers and TSH analogs with utility for treatment and prevention of metabolic and reproductive diseases are also provided.
