Abstract
The present invention provides a composition comprising a first antibody molecule that specifically recognizes CD3 and a second antibody molecule that specifically recognizes CD7, for use in a method of treatment, or preventative treatment of viral infection or viral reactivation in a mammalian subject undergoing immunomodulatory treatment, wherein the first and second antibody molecules are each provided with a toxic moiety. Also provided is a method of treating a mammalian subject having, or being at risk of developing, chronic Graft versus Host disease (cGVHD). Also provided is a related pharmaceutical composition.
Claims8
A pharmaceutical composition comprising:
- (i) 0.05 to 0.5 mg/mL, optionally 0.2 mg/mL, of a monoclonal antibody molecule that specifically recognises CD3 and which is conjugated to at least one ricin toxin A (RTA), and/or
- 0.05 to 0.5 mg/mL, optionally 0.2 mg/mL, of a monoclonal antibody molecule that specifically recognises CD7 and which is conjugated to at least one RTA;
- (ii) 5 to 20 mM, optionally 10 mM, of a citrate buffer;
- (iii) 50 to 300 mM, optionally:
- a) 75 to 200 mM;
- or b) 125 mM, of L-arginine or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof;
- (vi) 0.01 to 0.1% (w/v), optionally 0.05% (w/v), of a polysorbate,
- wherein the composition is in water and has a pH in the range 6 to 7.5, optionally 6.5.
