Summary for Patent: 8,697,080
Title:Methods and compositions for treatment of human immunodeficiency virus infection with conjugated antibodies or antibody fragments
Abstract: The present invention concerns methods and compositions for treatment of HIV infection in a subject. The compositions may comprise a targeting molecule against an HIV antigen, such as an anti-HIV antibody or antibody fragment. The anti-HIV antibody or fragment may be conjugated to a variety of cytotoxic agents, such as doxorubicin. In a preferred embodiment, the antibody or fragment is P4/D10. Other embodiments may concern methods of imaging, detection or diagnosis of HIV infection in a subject using an anti-HIV antibody or fragment conjugated to a diagnostic agent. In alternative embodiments, a bispecific antibody with at least one binding site for an HIV antigen and at least one binding site for a carrier molecule may be administered, optionally followed by a clearing agent, followed by administration of a carrier molecule conjugated to a therapeutic agent.

Application Number:13/675,422
Patent Claims:1. A pharmaceutical composition comprising a P4/D10 antibody or fragment thereof against an HIV surface envelope antigen, the antibody or fragment conjugated to a cytotoxic drug, wherein exposure to the conjugated antibody or fragment is effective to reduce HIV infection or to limit the intercellular transmission of HIV to uninfected cells when administered to a subject.

6. The composition of claim 1, wherein the antibody or fragment is a bispecific antibody, a bispecific antibody fragment, an scFv, a Fab, a Fab', a F(ab).sub.2, a F(ab').sub.2, an Fv, an sFv, an scFv, an scFv-Fc fusion, a single chain antibody, a diabody, a triabody or a tetrabody.

7. The composition of claim 1, wherein the antibody or fragment is a neutralizing antibody.

8. The composition of claim 1, further comprising a second antibody or fragment thereof, wherein the second antibody or fragment binds to an HIV surface envelope antigen.

9. The composition of claim 8, wherein the second antibody or fragment binds to the same HIV surface envelope antigen as the P4/D10 antibody.

10. The composition of claim 8, wherein the second antibody or fragment binds to a different HIV surface envelope antigen than the P4/D10 antibody.

11. The composition of claim 8, wherein the second antibody or fragment thereof is selected from the group consisting of 4E10, 2F5, 3D6, C37, 1ACY, 1F58, 1GGGC, 2G12 and X5.
