Abstract

The disclosure provides compositions and methods for the treatment of ocular conditions associated with angiogenesis comprising administering an antibody that targets a tyrosine phosphatase inhibitor in a subject.

Claims (52)

1. A method of treating an ocular condition in a subject in need thereof, the method comprising administering to the subject a therapeutically effective amount of an antibody, the antibody comprising:

a) a heavy chain that comprises: a sequence that is SEQ ID NO: 54; a sequence that is SEQ ID NO: 55; and a sequence that is SEQ ID NO: 56, wherein the sequence that is SEQ ID NO: 54; the sequence that is SEQ ID NO: 55; and the sequence that is SEQ ID NO: 56 are contained within a sequence that is at least 91% identical to any one of SEQ ID NOs: 9-12; and

b) a light chain that comprises: a sequence that is SEQ ID NO: 57; a sequence that is SEQ ID NO: 58; and a sequence that is SEQ ID NO: 59,

wherein the antibody binds human protein tyrosine phosphatase-beta (HPTP-β).

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the condition is diabetic retinopathy.

3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the condition is neovascularization.

4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the condition is vascular leak.

5. The method of claim 1 , wherein the condition is increased intraocular pressure.

6. The method of claim 1 , wherein the condition is ocular edema.

7. The method of claim 1 , wherein the condition is diabetic macular edema.

8. The method of claim 1 , wherein the condition is ocular hypertension.

9. The method of claim 1 , wherein the condition is ocular inflammation.

10. The method of claim 1 , wherein the administration is to an eye of the subject.

11. The method of claim 1 , wherein the administration is intravitreal.

12. The method of claim 1 , wherein the administration is subcutaneous.

13. The method of claim 1 , wherein the administration is topical.

14. The method of claim 1 , wherein the subject is a human.

15. The method of claim 1 , wherein the therapeutically effective amount of the antibody is from about 0.25 mg to about 200 mg.

16. The method of claim 1 , wherein the therapeutically effective amount of the antibody is from about 1 mg/kg to about 10 mg/kg.

17. The method of claim 1 , wherein the therapeutically effective amount of the antibody is from about 1 mg to about 50 mg.

18. The method of claim 1 , wherein the antibody inhibits HPTP-β in the subject.

19. The method of claim 1 , wherein the antibody binds a first fibronectin type III (FN3) repeat of an extracellular domain of HPTP-β in the subject.

20. The method of claim 1 , wherein the condition is glaucoma.

21. The method of claim 1 , wherein the condition is proliferative retinopathy.

22. The method of claim 1 , wherein the administration is intravenous.

23. The method of claim 1 , wherein the sequence that is SEQ ID NO: 54; the sequence that is SEQ ID NO: 55; and the sequence that is SEQ ID NO: 56 are contained within a sequence that is any one of SEQ ID NOs: 9-12.

24. A method of treating an ocular condition in a subject in need thereof, the method comprising administering to the subject a therapeutically effective amount of an antibody, the antibody comprising:

a) a heavy chain that comprises: a sequence that is SEQ ID NO: 54; a sequence that is SEQ ID NO: 55; and a sequence that is SEQ ID NO: 56; and

b) a light chain that comprises: a sequence that is SEQ ID NO: 57; a sequence that is SEQ ID NO: 58; and a sequence that is SEQ ID NO: 59, wherein the sequence that is SEQ ID NO: 57; the sequence that is SEQ ID NO: 58; and the sequence that is SEQ ID NO: 59 are contained within a sequence that is at least 83% identical to any one of SEQ ID NOs: 20-23,

wherein the antibody binds HPTP-β.

25. The method of claim 24 , wherein the condition is diabetic retinopathy.

26. The method of claim 24 , wherein the condition is neovascularization.

27. The method of claim 24 , wherein the condition is vascular leak.

28. The method of claim 24 , wherein the condition is increased intraocular pressure.

29. The method of claim 24 , wherein the condition is ocular edema.

30. The method of claim 24 , wherein the condition is diabetic macular edema.

31. The method of claim 24 , wherein the condition is ocular hypertension.

32. The method of claim 24 , wherein the condition is ocular inflammation.

33. The method of claim 24 , wherein the condition is glaucoma.

34. The method of claim 24 , wherein the condition is proliferative retinopathy.

35. The method of claim 24 , wherein the administration is to an eye of the subject.

36. The method of claim 24 , wherein the administration is intravitreal.

37. The method of claim 24 , wherein the administration is intravenous.

38. The method of claim 24 , wherein the administration is subcutaneous.

39. The method of claim 24 , wherein the administration is topical.

40. The method of claim 24 , wherein the subject is a human.

41. The method of claim 24 , wherein the therapeutically effective amount of the antibody is from about 0.25 mg to about 200 mg.

42. The method of claim 24 , wherein the therapeutically effective amount of the antibody is from about 1 mg/kg to about 10 mg/kg.

43. The method of claim 24 , wherein the therapeutically effective amount of the antibody is from about 1 mg to about 50 mg.

44. The method of claim 24 , wherein the antibody inhibits HPTP-β in the subject.

45. The method of claim 24 , wherein the antibody binds a first FN3 repeat of an extracellular domain of HPTP-β in the subject.

46. The method of claim 24 , wherein the sequence that is SEQ ID NO: 57; the sequence that is SEQ ID NO: 58; and the sequence that is SEQ ID NO: 59 are contained within a sequence that is any one of SEQ ID NOs: 20-23.
