摘要:
The present invention provides antibodies that bind to Activin A and methods of using the same. According to certain embodiments of the invention, the antibodies are fully human antibodies that bind to Activin A with high affinity. The antibodies of the invention are useful for the treatment of diseases and disorders characterized by decreased muscle mass or strength, such as sarcopenia, cachexia, muscle injury, muscle wasting/atrophy, and cancer. The antibodies of the invention are also useful in combination with GDF8 binding proteins for the the treatment of diseases and disorders characterized by decreased muscle mass or strength.本發明係提供與活化素A結合之抗體及其使用方法。根據本發明特定的實施例,此等抗體為以高親和力與活化素A結合之全人類抗體。本發明之抗體可用於治療特徵為肌肉量或強度減低之疾病和病症,例如肌少症、惡質病、肌肉損傷、肌肉消瘦/萎縮和癌症。本發明之抗體亦可用於與GDF8結合蛋白組合供治療特徵為肌肉量或強度減低之疾病和病症。
