Abstract
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a heterogeneous disease with pulmonary and extra-pulmonary manifestations. COPD heterogeneity is poorly understood and insights into molecular mechanisms is required to provide better treatment with targeted therapies. The inventors collected serum samples from (241) COPD subjects in the COBRA cohort and measured the expression of (1305) proteins using SOMAscan proteomic platform. Modular analyses and clustering of the proteomics were applied to identify disease subtypes. Cluster discoveries were revalidated during a follow up visit, and confirmed in a different COPD cohort. Unsupervised clustering using protein modules identified two clusters within COPD subjects. One cluster presented a higher expression of proteins associated with enhanced immune and pro-survival activities, host defense and cell renewal. Subjects in this cluster had a lower incidence of exacerbations, unscheduled medical visits, emphysema and diabetes. These protein signatures were conserved during a follow up visit, and validated in another COPD cohort. Among the 96 proteins, the inventors identified a small specific signature consisting of 15 proteins that were able to accurately differentiate the two patient clusters. This signature would thus be useful for predicting the clinical outcome of patients suffering from COPD.
The present invention relates to a method of purifying albumin-fusion proteins to reduce the level of oxidation of susceptible amino acid residues. The method comprises an affinity matrix chromatography step and an anion exchange chromatography step. The purified albumin-fusion proteins have low levels of oxidation and retain their enhanced half-life in vivo and its bioactivity. In some embodiments, the albumin-fusion protein comprises a scaffold, such as human Tenascin C scaffold. Compositions comprising the albumin-fusion protein are further disclosed.

CCL20 AS A PREDICTOR OF CLINICAL RESPONSE TO IL23-ANTAGONISTS
The present invention relates to the use of the Chemokine (C—C motif) ligand 20 (CCL20) as a biomarker to stratify or identify populations of patients suffering from interleukin-23 (IL23)-mediated diseases (e.g., Crohn's disease) responsive to treatment with an, anti-IL23 antagonist (including, e.g., anti-IL23 antibodies). Levels of CCL20 above or below a predetermined threshold can be used, for example, (i) to determine whether a patient with an IL23-mediated disease or disorder such a Crohn's disease is eligible or non-eligible for treatment with a therapeutic agent, (ii) to determine whether treatment with a certain agent should be commenced, suspended, or modified, (iii) to diagnose whether the IL23-mediated disease is treatable or not treatable with a specific therapeutic agent, or (iv) to predict the outcome of treating the IL23-mediated disease with a specific therapeutic agent. CCL20 can be used in combination with other IL23 pathway biomarkers such as IL22 and/or lipocalin-2 (LCN2).
