Abstract

Engineered antibodies to human IL-23p19 are provided, as well as uses thereof, e.g. in treatment of inflammatory, autoimmune, and proliferative disorders.

Claims (21)

1. An isolated binding compound that binds to human IL-23, comprising:

a) an antibody light chain variable region, or antigen binding fragment thereof, comprising:

CDRL1 comprising residues 24-34 of SEQ ID NO: 131;

CDRL2 comprising residues 50-56 of SEQ ID NO: 131;

CDRL3 comprising residues 89-97 of SEQ ID NO: 131; and

b) an antibody heavy chain variable region, or antigen binding fragment thereof, comprising:

CDRH1 comprising residues 26-35 of SEQ ID NO: 130;

CDRH2 comprising residues 50-66 of a sequence selected from the group consisting of SEQ ID NOs: 99, 129 and 130; and

CDRH3 comprising residues 99-104 of SEQ ID NO: 130.

2. The binding compound of claim 1 , wherein the binding compound is an antibody or antigen binding fragment thereof.

3. The binding compound of claim 1 , wherein the binding compound is an antibody or antigen binding fragment thereof comprising:

a) an antibody light chain variable region, or antigen binding fragment thereof, comprising the sequence of SEQ ID NO: 131; and

b) an antibody heavy chain variable region, or antigen binding fragment thereof, comprising the sequence of SEQ ID NO: 129, 130, 132 or 133.

4. The binding compound of claim 3 , wherein the binding compound is an antibody or antigen binding fragment thereof comprising:

a) a light chain variable region comprising the sequence of SEQ ID NO: 131; and

b) a heavy chain variable region comprising the sequence of SEQ ID NO: 130.

5. The isolated binding compound of claim 1 , wherein the binding compound is an antibody fragment selected from the group consisting of Fab, Fab′, Fab′-SH, Fv, scFv, F(ab′) 2 , and a diabody.

6. An isolated antibody, or antigen binding fragment thereof, that is able to block binding of a binding compound to human IL-23 in a cross-blocking assay, wherein the binding compound comprises:

a) a light chain variable region comprising the sequence of SEQ ID NO: 131; and

b) a heavy chain variable region comprising the sequence of SEQ ID NO: 130.

7. The binding compound of claim 6 wherein the binding compound blocks IL-23 mediated activity.
