Combined Methods And Compositions For Coagulation And Tumor Treatment

US Patent:
6749853, Jun 15, 2004
Filed:
Jan 14, 2000
Appl. No.:
09/483679
Inventors:
Philip E. Thorpe - Cape Elizabeth ME
Thomas S. Edgington - La Jolla CA
Assignee:
Board of Regents, The University of Texas System - Austin TX
The Scripps Research Institute - La Jolla CA
International Classification:
A61K 3942
US Classification:
4241821, 4241781, 5303871, 5303873
Abstract:
Disclosed are various compositions and methods for use in achieving specific blood coagulation. This is exemplified by the specific in vivo coagulation of tumor vasculature, causing tumor regression, through the site-specific delivery of a coagulant using a bispecific antibody.

Method Of Inhibiting Blood Coagulation In Extracorporeal Circulation By Inhibiting Human Tissue Factor

US Patent:
5437864, Aug 1, 1995
Filed:
Nov 16, 1992
Appl. No.:
7/977281
Inventors:
Thomas S. Edgington - La Jolla CA
Robert W. Colman - Moylan PA
Janos Kappelmayer - Debrecen, HU
L. Henry Edmunds - Bryn Mawr PA
Alvise Bernabei - Philadelphia PA
Assignee:
The Scripps Research Institute - La Jolla CA
Trustees of the University of Pennsylvania - Phialdelphia PA
Temple University - Of the Commonwealth Systems of Higher Education - Phialdelphia PA
International Classification:
A61K 39395, G07K 1528
US Classification:
4241451
Abstract:
This invention provides a method of inhibiting coagulation in extracorporeal circulation in a subject, comprising administration of a therapeutically effective amount of a monoclonal antibody which inhibits the ability of tissue factor to bind to factor VII/VIIa. The method prevents complex formation between tissue factor and factor VII/VIIa and thus inhibits coagulation of blood in extracorporeal procedures such as cardiopulmonary bypass and other shunt procedures. Anti-tissue factor monoclonal antibodies produced by hybridoma cell lines TFS-5G9 or TF9-6B4 may be used in the claimed methods.

Hybridomas Producing Monoclonal Antibodies Reactive With Human Tissue-Factor Glycoprotein Heavy Chain

US Patent:
5223427, Jun 29, 1993
Filed:
Mar 9, 1988
Appl. No.:
7/165939
Inventors:
Thomas S. Edgington - La Jolla CA
James H. Morrissey - San Diego CA
Assignee:
The Scripps Research Institute - La Jolla CA
International Classification:
C12N 518, C07K 1528
US Classification:
43524027
Abstract:
