G-Csf Analog Compositions And Methods

View page
US Patent:
6946548, Sep 20, 2005
Filed:
Sep 10, 2001
Appl. No.:
09/950123
Inventors:
Casim A. Sarkar - Cambridge MA, US
Douglas A. Lauffenburger - Cambridge MA, US
Bruce Tidor - Lexington MA, US
Assignee:
Massachusetts Institute of Technology - Cambridge MA
International Classification:
A61K038/19
US Classification:
530399, 435 695, 424 851
Abstract:
The present invention relates to granulocyte colony stimulating factor (“G-CSF”) analog polypeptide compositions, related nucleic acids, expression constructs, host cells, and processes for recombinant production of the present G-CSF analogs. The concept detailed herein involves novel mutants of G-CSF, using single substitutions to amino acids, which were rationally chosen to affect the cellular trafficking of G-CSF and/or G-CSFR. In addition, pharmaceutical compositions, and methods of use are provided.

US Patent:
7371370, May 13, 2008
Filed:
Aug 3, 2004
Appl. No.:
10/910087
Inventors:
Casim A. Sarkar - Cambridge MA, US
Douglas A. Lauffenburger - Cambridge MA, US
Assignee:
Massachusetts Institute of Technology - Cambridge MA
International Classification:
A61K 38/19
US Classification:
424 851, 514 2, 514 8, 514 12
Abstract:
The present invention relates to granulocyte colony stimulating factor (“G-CSF”) polypeptide analog compositions. The concept detailed herein provides methods for screening G-CSF analogs, designed with one or more substitutions to amino acids, and selecting analogs for use as G-CSF replacements or antagonists, and may be generalizable beyond G-CSF analogs as well. In addition, pharmaceutical compositions and methods of use are provided for analogs so selected.

US Patent:
20140242111, Aug 28, 2014
Filed:
Mar 8, 2012
Appl. No.:
14/003596
Inventors:
Casim Ali Sarkar - Minneapolis MN, US
Ting Wun Ng - Philadelphia PA, US
Assignee:
THE TRUSTEES OF THE UNIVERSITY OF PENNSYLVANIA - Philadelphia PA
International Classification:
A61K 35/74
US Classification:
4242001, 4352523, 424 932
Abstract:
Disclosed is an oral delivery system that overcomes major barriers encountered in the gastrointestinal tract, particularly rapid proteolytic degradation and low intestinal permeability. Provided is a method for oral delivery of an engineered microorganism to a mammal where the microorganism produces a macromolecule having a desired bioavailability outcome.
