There are provided inter alia polypeptides capable of inhibiting IL-7 and/or L-TSLP binding to IL-7R (IL-7R), as well as to constructs and pharmaceutical compositions comprising these polypeptides.

Polynucleotides encoding, and method of making, a polypeptide comprising a VHH which binds interleukin-receptor (IL-7R)

Described herein is a polypeptide comprising an immunoglobulin chain variable domain comprising three complementarity determining regions (CDR1-CDR3) and four framework regions, wherein: (a) at least one lysine residue in CDR1, CDR2 and/or CDR3 has been substituted with at least one histidine residue, and/or (b) at least one arginine residue in CDR1, CDR2 and/or CDR3 has been substituted with at least one histidine residue. The polypeptides of this disclosure possess increased intestinal stability relative to a corresponding polypeptide not having the histidine substitutions.

Polypeptides

There is provided inter alia a polypeptide comprising an immunoglobulin chain variable domain which binds to IL-6R, wherein the immunoglobulin chain variable domain comprises three complementarity determining regions (CDR1-CDR3) and four framework regions (FR1-FR4), wherein CDR1-CDR3 and FR1-FR4 are as defined in the specification.

Polypeptides comprising immunoglobulin chain variable domains which bind to interleukin-6 receptor (IL-6R) and methods of use thereof to treat autoimmune and inflammatory diseases

There is provided inter alia a composition comprising a TNF-alpha binding polypeptide and an IL-6R binding polypeptide.

Compositions

VHH immunoglobulin chain variable domain that binds to IL-7R and methods of use thereof for treating autoimmune and/or inflammatory diseases

There is provided inter alia a polypeptide comprising an immunoglobulin chain variable domain which binds to IL-23, wherein the immunoglobulin chain variable domain comprises three complementarity determining regions (CDR1-CDR3) and four framework regions (FR1-FR4), wherein CDR1 comprises a sequence sharing 60% or greater sequence identity with SEQ ID NO: 1, CDR2 comprises a sequence sharing 50% or greater sequence identity with SEQ ID NO: 2 and CDR3 comprises a sequence sharing 50% or greater sequence identity with SEQ ID NO: 3.

IL-23 and TNF-alpha binding bi-specific heavy chain polypeptides

Polypeptides which bind to interleukin-6 receptor (IL-6R)

There is provided a solid pharmaceutical composition for delivering by oral administration a pharmaceutically active binding polypeptide to a region of the intestinal tract comprising a compressed core, wherein the compressed core comprises a pharmaceutically active binding polypeptide and wherein the compressed core is coated with a pH sensitive enteric coating.

There is provided inter alia a polypeptide comprising an immunoglobulin chain variable domain which binds to TNF-alpha, wherein the immunoglobulin chain variable domain comprises three complementarity determining regions (CDR1-CDR3) and four framework regions (FR1-FR4), wherein CDR1-CDR3 and FR1-FR4 are as defined in the specification.
