Filed:

Nov 3, 2011

Appl. No.:

13/288299

Inventors:

Steven A. Fischkoff - Short Hills NJ, US
Joachim Kempeni - Neustadt, DE
Roberta Weiss - Wynnewood PA, US

Assignee:

ABBOTT BIOTECHNOLOGY LTD. - HAMILTON

International Classification:

A61K 39/395
A61P 1/00
A61P 1/04
A61K 38/20

US Classification:

424 852, 4241581, 4241351

Abstract:

Methods of treating disorders in which TFNα activity is detrimental via biweekly, subcutaneous administration of human antibodies, preferably recombinant human antibodies, that specifically bind to human tumor necrosis factor α (hTNFα) are disclosed. The antibody may be administered with or without methotrexate. These antibodies have high affinity for hTNFα (e.g., K=10M or less), a slow off rate for hTNFα dissociation (e.g., K=10secor less) and neutralize hTNFα activity in vitro and in vivo. An antibody of the invention can be a full-length antibody or an antigen-binding portion thereof. Kits containing a pharmaceutical composition and instructions for dosing, and preloaded syringes containing pharmaceutical compositions are also encompassed by the invention.
