Abstract

The present invention relates to immunoglobulin single variable domains (ISVDs) for the treatment of diseases by the enteral, e.g. oral, delivery. In particular, the present invention provides ISVDs comprising sequences with a high percentage of sequence identity to SEQ ID NO: 1 for such enteral administration. Such sequences were identified as extraordinarily stable in the gastrointestinal tract, which prevents their degradation and thereby allows them to exert a strong therapeutic effect.

Abstract

The present invention belongs to the field of immunology and relates to proteins and polypeptides comprising an immunoglobulin single variable domain (ISVD) fused with a cytokine. In particular, the present invention provides a chimeric protein which comprises an immunoglobulin single variable domain (ISVD) fused with a cytokine, wherein an internal fusion site of the ISVD is linked to the cytokine, wherein the internal fusion site is located in a loop or turn between two secondary structure elements. The fusion of the cytokine to the ISVD upon binding to the cytokine receptor or receptor subunit(s) allows for the modulation of the cytokine receptor activity and/or downstream signaling.

Abstract

The present invention relates to glycosylated immunoglobulin variable domains, and in particular to glycosylated immunoglobulin single variable domains (the latter also being referred to herein by means of the abbreviation “ISV” or “ISVD”). The present invention relates to glycosylated immunoglobulin heavy-chain variable domains (also referred to herein as “VH domains”), and in particular to glycosylated immunoglobulin heavy-chain ISVD's. The invention in particular relates to immunoglobulin (single) variable domains that are glycosylated in such a way that the binding of said immunoglobulin (single) variable domains by so-called “pre-existing antibodies” is prevented and/or reduced (i.e. partially or essentially completely) compared to the same immunoglobulin (single) variable domain without the glycosylation of the invention being present. For example, the present invention relates to heavy-chain immunoglobulin variable domain, which contains a glycosylation site such that the amino acid residue at one of positions 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 39, 40, 41, 42, 87, 89, 108, 110, 112, 113 or 114, and in particular one of positions 11, 13, 87, 89, 108, 110, 112, 113 or 114 (numbering according to Kabat) is or can be glycosylated.

Abstract

The present disclosure provides a novel type of drug for treating a subject suffering from an inflammatory disease. Specifically, the disclosure provides polypeptides comprising at least three immunoglobulin single variable domains (ISVDs), characterized in that at least one ISV binds to OX40L and at least two ISVDs bind to IL-13. The present disclosure also provides nucleic acids, vectors and compositions.

Abstract

The present invention relates to improved immunogenicity assays and methods for performing the same. In particular, the present invention relates to improved immunogenicity assays that are capable of distinguishing neutralizing anti-drug antibodies from non-neutralizing anti-drug antibodies. More in particular, the present invention relates to improved immunogenicity assays that allow (amounts and/or concentrations of) neutralizing anti-drug antibodies to be detected and/or measured in a sample even in the presence of non-neutralizing anti-drug antibodies.
