Abstract

Antibodies that interact with osteoprotegerin ligand (OPGL) are described. Methods of treating osteopenic disorders by administering a pharmaceutically effective amount of antibodies to OPGL are described. Methods of detecting the amount of OPGL in a sample using antibodies to OPGL are described.

Claims (33)

1. An isolated antibody comprising:

a) a heavy chain comprising the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 2; and

b) a light chain comprising the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 4.

2. An isolated antibody consisting of:

a) a heavy chain consisting of the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 2; and

b) a light chain consisting of the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 4.

3. An isolated antibody comprising:

a) a heavy chain comprising the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 13; and

b) a light chain comprising the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 14.

4. The antibody of claim 3 , wherein the heavy chain and the light chain are connected by a flexible linker to form a single-chain antibody.

5. The antibody of claim 4 , which is a single-chain Fv antibody.

6. The antibody of claim 3 , which is a Fab antibody.

7. The antibody of claim 3 , which is a Fab′ antibody.

8. The antibody of claim 3 , which is a F(ab′) 2 antibody.

9. The antibody of claim 3 , which is fully human.

10. The antibody of claim 3 , wherein the antibody inhibits binding of a human osteoprotegerin ligand (OPGL) to an osteoclast differentiation and activation receptor (ODAR).

11. An isolated antibody comprising:

a) a heavy chain comprising CDR1, CDR2, and CDR3 of SEQ ID NO: 13; and

b) a light chain comprising CDR1, CDR2, and CDR3 of SEQ ID NO: 14.

12. The antibody of claim 11 , wherein the heavy chain and the light chain are connected by a flexible linker to form a single-chain antibody.

13. The antibody of claim 12 , which is a single-chain Fv antibody.

14. The antibody of claim 11 , which is a Fab antibody.

15. The antibody of claim 11 , which is a Fab′ antibody.

16. The antibody of claim 11 , which is a F(ab′) 2 antibody.

17. The antibody of claim 11 , which is fully human.

18. The antibody of claim 11 , wherein the antibody inhibits binding of a human osteoprotegerin ligand (OPGL) to an osteoclast differentiation and activation receptor (ODAR).

19. A pharmaceutical composition comprising the antibody of any one of claims 1 , 2 , 3 , and 11 .

20. The pharmaceutical composition of claim 19 , wherein the composition comprises an acetate buffer.

21. The pharmaceutical composition of claim 19 , wherein the composition comprises polysorbate.

22. The pharmaceutical composition of claim 19 , wherein the composition comprises sorbitol.

23. The pharmaceutical composition of claim 19 , wherein the composition comprises acetate and sorbitol.

24. The pharmaceutical composition of claim 19 , wherein the composition is contained in a prefilled syringe.

25. The pharmaceutical composition of claim 19 , wherein the composition is in unit dose form.
