A recent patent application (Publication Number: US20240010716A1) discloses a modified IgG molecule designed for increased efficacy in canines. The modified IgG includes a canine IgG constant domain with specific amino acid substitutions, notably at position 434 where asparagine is replaced with histidine (N434H). This modified IgG is specifically tailored as an anti-TGFß molecule, with defined variable heavy and light chain sequences. The patent claims that this modified IgG exhibits higher affinity for FcRn and a longer half-life compared to wild-type canine IgG constant domain IgG molecules.

Furthermore, the patent application includes claims for a pharmaceutical composition containing the modified IgG, a kit with the modified IgG and instructions for use, a fusion molecule incorporating the modified IgG, and a method for increasing the serum half-life of canine IgG in dogs through the administration of the modified IgG. The method involves administering the modified IgG with specific amino acid substitutions, along with the anti-TGFß molecule components. The patent emphasizes the importance of the specific amino acid substitutions in enhancing the serum half-life of the canine IgG molecule, potentially leading to improved therapeutic outcomes in canines.
