Method for treating psoriatic arthritis by administering an anti-IL-12 antibody
Isolated anti-IL-12 antibodies, nucleic acids encoding antibodies or antibody portions, vectors, host cells, and methods of making are useful for production of antibody or portions for treating and/or diagnosing IL-12 related conditions, diseases, and disorders, such as psoriatic arthritis.
1. A method for reducing symptoms of psoriatic arthritis in an animal, comprising administering a composition comprising an effective amount of an isolated anti-IL-12 antibody comprising a heavy chain variable region of the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 7 and a light chain variable region of the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 8, to said animal.
2. The method according to claim 1 , wherein said effective amount is 0.001-50 mg/kilogram of said animal.
3. The method according to claim 1 , wherein said administering is by at least one mode selected from parenteral, subcutaneous, intramuscular, intravenous, intrarticular, intraabdominal, intracapsular, intracartilaginous, intracavitary, intracelial, intracolic, intracervical, intragastric, intrahepatic, intramyocardial, intraosteal, intrapelvic, intraperitoneal, intrapleural, intraprostatic, intrapulmonary, intraspinal, intrasynovial, buccal, sublingual, intranasal, and transdermal.
4. The method according to claim 1 , further comprising administering at least one composition comprising an effective amount of at least one compound or protein selected from the group consisting of a detectable label or reporter, a TNF antagonist, an antirheumatic, a muscle relaxant, a narcotic, a non-steroid anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID), an analgesic, an anesthetic, a sedative, a local anesthetic, a neuromuscular blocker, an antimicrobial, an antipsoriatic, a corticosteriod, an anabolic steroid, an immunization, an immunoglobulin, an immunosuppressive, a growth hormone, a hormone replacement drug, a radiopharmaceutical, a beta agonist, an inhaled steroid, an epinephrine or analog, a cytokine, and a cytokine antagonist.
5. A method for reducing symptoms of psoriatic arthritis in an animal, comprising administering a composition comprising an effective amount of an isolated anti-IL-12 antibody comprising a heavy chain complementarity determining region CDR1 of the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 1, a heavy chain CDR2 of the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 2, a heavy chain CDR3 of the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 3, a light chain CDR1 of the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 4, a light chain CDR2 of the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 5, and a light chain CDR3 of the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 6, to said animal.
6. The method according to claim 5 , wherein said effective amount is 0.001-50 mg/kilogram of said animal.
7. The method according to claim 5 , wherein said administering is by at least one mode selected from parenteral, subcutaneous, intramuscular, intravenous, intrarticular, intraabdominal, intracapsular, intracartilaginous, intracavitary, intracelial, intracolic, intracervical, intragastric, intrahepatic, intramyocardial, intraosteal, intrapelvic, intraperitoneal, intrapleural, intraprostatic, intrapulmonary, intraspinal, intrasynovial, buccal, sublingual, intranasal, and transdermal.
8. The method according to claim 5 , further comprising administering at least one composition comprising an effective amount of at least one compound or protein selected from the group consisting of a detectable label or reporter, a TNF antagonist, an antirheumatic, a muscle relaxant, a narcotic, a non-steroid anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID), an analgesic, an anesthetic, a sedative, a local anesthetic, a neuromuscular blocker, an antimicrobial, an antipsoriatic, a corticosteriod, an anabolic steroid, an immunization, an immunoglobulin, an immunosuppressive, a growth hormone, a hormone replacement drug, a radiopharmaceutical, a beta agonist, an inhaled steroid, an epinephrine or analog, a cytokine, and a cytokine antagonist.
9. A method for reducing symptons of psoriatic arthritis in a human, comprising administering a composition comprising an effective amount of an isolated anti-IL-12 antibody comprising a heavy chain variable region of the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 7 and a light chain variable region of the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 8, to said human.
10. The method according to claim 9 , wherein said effective amount is 0.001-50 mg/kilogram of said human.
11. The method according to claim 9 , wherein said administeraing is by at least one mode selected from parenteral, subcutaneous, intramuscular, intravenous, intrarticular, intraabdominal, intracapsular, intracartilaginous, intracavitary, intracelial, intracolic, intracervical, intragastric, intrahepatic, intramyocardial, intraosteal, intrapelvic, intraperitoneal, intrapleural, intraprostatic, intrapulmonary, intraspinal, intrasynovial, buccal, sublingual, intranasal, and transdermal.
12. The method according to claim 9 , further comprising administering at least one composition comprising an effective amount of at least one compound or protein selected from the group consisting of a detectable label or reporter, a TNF antagonist, an antirheumatic, a muscle relaxant, a narcotic, a non-steroid anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID), an analgesic, an anesthetic, a sedative, a local anesthetic, a neuromuscular blocker, an antimicrobial, an antipsoriatic, a corticosteriod, an anabolic steroid, an immunization, an immunoglobulin, an immunosuppressive, a growth hormone, a hormone replacement drug, a radiopharmaceutical, a beta agonist, an inhaled steroid, an epinephrine or analog, a cytokine, and a cytokine antagonist.
