A method for the prophylaxis or treatment of restenosis comprising administering a therapeutically effective amount of Annexin A5 or a functional analog or variant thereof to a patient in need of such treatment. A method for the treatment of stenosis in a patient comprising performing an intervention for the treatment of stenosis in conjunction with administering a therapeutically effective amount of Annexin A5 or a functional analog or variant thereof. A pharmaceutical composition comprising a therapeutically effective amount of Annexin A5 or a functional analog or variant thereof for the prophylaxis or treatment of restenosis. A drug eluting stent, wherein the drug is Annexin A5 or a functional analog or variant thereof, and a method of making such a stent.

Methods for treating restenosis using annexin A5

The present invention relates to an antibody or antibody fragment capable of binding to phosphorylcholine and/or a phosphorylcholine conjugate, wherein the antibody or antibody fragment comprises a variable heavy chain (VH) domain and/or a variable light chain (VL) domain, and wherein&#x2014;(a) the VH domain comprises an amino acid sequence that includes one, two or three complementarity determining regions (CDRs) selected from the group consisting of: a CDR1 sequence comprising an amino acid sequence having at least 25%, 50%, 75% or 100% sequence identity to the sequence of SEQ ID NO: 17; a CDR2 sequence comprising an amino acid sequence having at least 5%, 11%, 17%, 23%, 29%, 35%, 47%, 52%, 58%, 64%, 70%, 76%, 82%, 94% or 100% sequence identity to the sequence of SEQ ID NO: 18; and a CDR3 sequence comprising an amino acid sequence having at least 4%, 9%, 13%, 18%, 22%, 27%, 31%, 36%, 40%, 45%, 50%, 54%, 59%, 63%, 68%, 72%, 77%, 81%, 86%, 90%, 95% or 100% sequence identity to the sequence of SEQ ID NO: 19, 20, 21 or 22; and/or (b) the VL domain comprises an amino acid sequence that includes one, two or three complementarity determining regions (CDRs) selected from the group consisting of: a CDR4 sequence comprising an amino acid sequence having at least 5%, 11%, 17%, 23%, 29%, 35%, 47%, 52%, 58%, 64%, 70%, 76%, 82%, 94% or 100% sequence identity to the sequence of SEQ ID NO: 23 or 24; a CDR5 sequence comprising an amino acid sequence having at least 14%, 28%, 42%, 57%, 71%, 85% or 100% sequence identity to the sequence of SEQ ID NO: 25; a CDR6 sequence comprising an amino acid sequence having at least 11%, 22%, 33%, 44%, 55%, 66%, 77%, 88% or 100% sequence identity to the sequence of SEQ ID NO: 26.

Antibodies against phosphorylcholine

The present disclosure relates to an antibody or antibody fragment capable of binding to phosphorylcholine and/or a phosphorylcholine conjugate, wherein the antibody or antibody fragment comprises a variable heavy chain (VH) domain and/or a variable light chain (VL) domain, and wherein (a) the VH domain comprises complementarity determining regions (CDRs) selected from the group consisting of: a CDR1 sequence having identity to the sequence of SEQ ID NO: 7; a CDR2 sequence having identity to the sequence of SEQ ID NO: 8; and a CDR3 sequence having identity to the sequence of SEQ ID NO: 9 or 10; and/or (b) the VL domain comprises CDRs selected from the group consisting of: a CDR4 sequence having identity to the sequence of SEQ ID NO: 11; a CDR5 sequence having identity to the sequence of SEQ ID NO: 12; a CDR6 sequence having identity to the sequence of SEQ ID NO: 13.

Antibodies binding to phosphorylcholine (PC) and/or PC conjugates

The present invention relates to a method for the treatment of vascular dysfunction, reducing ischemic pain and/or treatment of a vascular disease comprising administering a therapeutically effective amount of Annexin A5 or a functional analog or variant thereof to a patient in need of such treatment. The vascular dysfunction, ischemic pain and/or vascular disease may be associated with impaired endothelium mediated vasodilatation, a reduced eNOS activity, and/or a reduced NO bioavailability. The patient may be suffering from a disease selected from angina pectoris, ischemic heart disease, peripheral artery disease, systolic hypertension, migraine, type 2 diabetes and erectile dysfunction.
