A recently granted patent (Publication Number: US11926662B2) discloses a method for inhibiting the production of inflammatory cytokines in human subjects by administering an antibody or antigen-binding fragment targeting the human granulocyte macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) protein. The specificity of the antibody is defined by the amino acid sequences of the VH and VL regions, including specific complementarity determining regions (CDRs) outlined in the patent claims.

The method outlined in the patent targets inflammatory cytokines such as TNF, IL-6, IL-12p70, IL-23, IL-1ß, and their combinations in subjects in need, particularly those suffering from infections. The antibody or fragment administered may also include heavy and light chain constant regions, Fc regions, or a combination thereof. Additionally, the patent specifies the humanization of the antibody and provides a range of amino acid sequences for the VH and VL regions that can be utilized in the method. This patent highlights a novel approach to modulating inflammatory responses in human subjects through the targeted inhibition of GM-CSF protein.
