Claims (36)

1 .- 80 . (canceled)

81 . A method comprising administering to a subject a humanized antibody that binds complement C1s protein and comprises:

a light chain complementarity-determining region-1 (CDR-L1) sequence, a light chain complementarity-determining region-2 (CDR-L2) sequence, and a light chain complementarity-determining region-3 (CDR-L3) sequence of an antibody light chain variable region that comprises the amino acid sequence set forth in SEQ ID NO: 44; and

a heavy chain complementarity-determining region-1 (CDR-H1) sequence, a heavy chain complementarity-determining region-2 (CDR-H2) sequence, and a heavy chain complementarity-determining region-3 (CDR-H3) sequence of an antibody heavy chain variable region that comprises the amino acid sequence set forth in SEQ ID NO: 42.

82 . The method of claim 81 , wherein the humanized antibody comprises:

a CDR-L1 amino acid sequence set forth in SEQ ID NO: 1, a CDR-L2 amino acid sequence set forth in SEQ ID NO: 2, a CDR-L3 amino acid sequence set forth in SEQ ID NO: 3, a CDR-H1 amino acid sequence set forth in SEQ ID NO: 4, a CDR-H2 amino acid sequence set forth in SEQ ID NO: 5, and a CDR-H3 amino acid sequence set forth in SEQ ID NO: 6.

83 . The method of claim 81 , wherein the humanized antibody comprises:

a CDR-L1 amino acid sequence set forth in SEQ ID NO: 32, a CDR-L2 amino acid sequence set forth in SEQ ID NO: 33, a CDR-L3 amino acid sequence set forth in SEQ ID NO: 3, a CDR-H1 amino acid sequence set forth in SEQ ID NO: 34, a CDR-H2 amino acid sequence set forth in SEQ ID NO: 35, and a CDR-H3 amino acid sequence set forth in SEQ ID NO: 36.

84 . The method of claim 81 , wherein the humanized antibody comprises a light chain variable region comprising the amino acid sequence set forth in SEQ ID NO: 42 and a heavy chain variable region comprising the amino acid sequence set forth in SEQ ID NO: 44.

85 . The method of claim 81 , wherein the humanized antibody further comprises an IgG1 constant region, an IgG2 constant region, an IgG3 constant region, or an IgG4 constant region.

86 . The method of claim 85 , wherein the humanized antibody further comprises an IgG4 constant region.

87 . The method of claim 86 , wherein the IgG4 constant region comprises an S241P substitution (by Kabat numbering) and an L235E substitution (by EU numbering).

88 . The method of claim 81 , wherein the subject has a complement-mediated disorder.

89 . The method of claim 88 , wherein the complement-mediated disorder is cold agglutinin disease.

90 . The method of claim 88 , wherein the complement-mediated disorder is immunothrombocytopenic purpura (ITP).

91 . The method of claim 88 , wherein the complement-mediated disorder is bullous pemphigoid.

92 . The method of claim 88 , wherein the complement-mediated disorder is multifocal motor neuropathy (MMN).

93 . The method of claim 88 , wherein the complement-mediated disorder is antibody-mediated transplant rejection.

94 . The method of claim 81 , wherein the subject is a human subject.

95 . The method of claim 81 , wherein the humanized antibody is administered intravenously, subcutaneously, or intramuscularly.

96 . The method of claim 88 , wherein the humanized antibody is administered in an amount effective to treat the complement mediated disorder.

97 . The method of claim 88 , wherein the humanized antibody is administered once a week, once every two weeks, or once a month.

98 . A method of treating a complement-mediated disorder in subject, comprising administering to a subject having a complement-mediated disorder a therapeutically effective amount of a humanized antibody that binds complement C1s protein and comprises:

a light chain complementarity-determining region-1 (CDR-L1) sequence, a light chain complementarity-determining region-2 (CDR-L2) sequence, and a light chain complementarity-determining region-3 (CDR-L3) sequence of an antibody light chain variable region that comprises the amino acid sequence set forth in SEQ ID NO: 44; and

a heavy chain complementarity-determining region-1 (CDR-H1) sequence, a heavy chain complementarity-determining region-2 (CDR-H2) sequence, and a heavy chain complementarity-determining region-3 (CDR-H3) sequence of an antibody heavy chain variable region that comprises the amino acid sequence set forth in SEQ ID NO: 42, thereby treating the complement-mediated disorder in the subject.

99 . The method of claim 98 , wherein the complement-mediated disorder is immunothrombocytopenic purpura (ITP).

100 . The method of claim 98 , wherein the complement-mediated disorder is bullous pemphigoid.

101 . The method of claim 98 , wherein the complement-mediated disorder is multifocal motor neuropathy (MMN).

102 . The method of claim 98 , wherein the complement-mediated disorder is antibody-mediated transplant rejection.

103 . A method of treating cold agglutinin disease in subject, comprising administering to a subject having cold agglutinin disease a therapeutically effective amount of a humanized antibody that binds complement C1s protein and comprises:

a light chain complementarity-determining region-1 (CDR-L1) sequence, a light chain complementarity-determining region-2 (CDR-L2) sequence, and a light chain complementarity-determining region-3 (CDR-L3) sequence of an antibody light chain variable region that comprises the amino acid sequence set forth in SEQ ID NO: 44; and

a heavy chain complementarity-determining region-1 (CDR-H1) sequence, a heavy chain complementarity-determining region-2 (CDR-H2) sequence, and a heavy chain complementarity-determining region-3 (CDR-H3) sequence of an antibody heavy chain variable region that comprises the amino acid sequence set forth in SEQ ID NO: 42, thereby treating the cold agglutinin disease in the subject.

104 . A method of producing a humanized antibody that binds to a complement C1s protein, the method comprising culturing a cell comprising nucleic acids encoding the humanized antibody, wherein the humanized antibody comprises:

(i) a light chain complementarity-determining region-1 (CDR-L1) sequence, a light chain complementarity-determining region-2 (CDR-L2) sequence, and a light chain complementarity-determining region-3 (CDR-L3) sequence of an antibody light chain variable region that comprises the amino acid sequence set forth in SEQ ID NO: 44; and
