Immune reactions identified that may cause antibody development in hemophilia A cases

Medical Xpress

Patients usually receive FVIII that comes from donor blood or is produced using genetic engineering. However, about one third of those treated for severe hemophilia A develop antibodies (inhibitors) against FVIII.

Novartis’ Ilaris fails in late-stage COVID-19 trial

pharmaphorum

Novartis is also working with Molecular Partners to develop therapies based on genetically engineered proteins known as DARPins. These are small proteins that are created in the lab but mimic the effect of antibodies and could be used to neutralise the SARS-CoV-2 coronavirus that causes COVID-19.
