Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

The invention provides dosage regimes for treatment of synucleinopathies. In one regime, a subject receives 3000-5000 mg of an antibody intravenously every 3-5 weeks. In another regime, a subject receives 1300-1700 mg of an antibody intravenously every 3-5 weeks.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1 . A method of treating or effecting prophylaxis of a subject having Parkinson's disease, comprising intravenously administering to the subject a dose of 1500 mg of an antibody or an antigen binding fragment thereof against alpha-synuclein at intervals of 3-5 weeks, wherein the antibody comprises a heavy chain variable region comprising SEQ ID NO:10, respectively, and a light chain comprising SEQ ID NO:5. 2 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the antibody comprises a heavy chain comprising SEQ ID NO:37 and a light chain comprising SEQ ID NO:32, wherein the C-terminal lysine of SEQ ID NO:37 may be absent. 3 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the antibody is of human IgG 1 isotype. 4 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the interval is 4 weeks. 5 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the subject receives the antibody every 4 weeks for at least 52 weeks. 6 . The method of claim 5 , wherein the subject has early-stage Parkinson's Disease. 7 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the subject is not receiving symptomatic treatment for Parkinson's disease concomitant with the antibody. 8 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the antibody is administered concomitantly with levodopa. 9 . The method of claim 1 , wherein administering the antibody is preceded by administering a loading dose of 2000 mg of the antibody and optionally uptitration at one or more subsequent dose at greater or equal to 2000 mg but less than 3500 mg until a dose of 3500 mg is reached, all doses being separated by intervals of 3-5 weeks. 10 . The method of claim 1 , further comprising monitoring the subject for a change in movement, cognitive deficit, autonomic dysfunction, gastrointestinal dysfunction, visual hallucination or a psychological symptom. 11 . The method of claim 10 , wherein the monitoring comprises (a) providing a subject with a mobile device programmed to receive and transmit data acquired from sensors internal and/or external to the device relating to movement deficits of a subject having or suspected of having a synucleinopathy, whereafter the subject undergoes a series of movements to reveal movement deficits, if present, and the internal or external sensors of the device acquire data relating to the movements; (b) collecting data transmitted from the mobile device; and (c) comparing the data acquired from the subjects with control data to assess presence or extent of movement deficits in the subject. 12 . The method of claim 11 , wherein the mobile device is programmed to receive and transmit data from at least two external sensors attached to upper and lower limbs of the subject. 13 . The method of claim 11 , wherein the mobile device is carried by the subject and acquires data from an internal sensor.
