Patents

  • Anti-PCSK9 antibodies, formulations, dosing, and methods of use

    Issued US US20130344085 A1

    The invention relates to anti-PCSK9 antibodies, antibody formulations, dosing regimens, and methods of using the same. Proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 (PCSK9) is a member of the mammalian subtilisin family of proprotein convertases. PCSK9 plays a critical role in cholesterol metabolism by controlling the levels of low density lipoprotein (LDL) particles that circulate in the bloodstream. Elevated levels of PCSK9 have been shown to reduce LDL-receptor levels in the liver, resulting…

    The invention relates to anti-PCSK9 antibodies, antibody formulations, dosing regimens, and methods of using the same. Proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 (PCSK9) is a member of the mammalian subtilisin family of proprotein convertases. PCSK9 plays a critical role in cholesterol metabolism by controlling the levels of low density lipoprotein (LDL) particles that circulate in the bloodstream. Elevated levels of PCSK9 have been shown to reduce LDL-receptor levels in the liver, resulting in high levels of LDL-cholesterol in the plasma and increased susceptibility to coronary artery disease. (Peterson et al. , / Lipid Res. 49(7): 1595-9 (2008)). Therefore, it would be highly advantageous to produce a therapeutic-based antagonist of PCSK9 that inhibits or antagonizes the activity of PCSK9 and the corresponding role PCSK9 plays in various therapeutic conditions. The invention is in part based on a variety of antibodies to PCSK9. PCSK9 presents as an important and advantageous therapeutic target, and the invention provides antibodies as therapeutic and diagnostic agents for use in targeting pathological conditions associated with expression and/or activity of PCSK9.
