Title:
NOVEL ANTIBODY FOR PREVENTION OR TREATMENT OF FIBROTIC DISEASE
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2023/008858
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a method for prevention or treatment of fibrotic disease, wherein an antibody binding specifically to thrombospondin-2 (TSP-2) protein involved in fibrosis is used for predicting the onset of fibrotic disease or for inhibiting the activity of the corresponding protein. The present invention presents TSP-2 as a new diagnostic and therapeutic target for idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis, for which there have been no effective treatment methods because a clear pathogenesis is not known, and provides an effective antibody that can be used for effective diagnosis, prevention, or treatment of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis. In addition, the present invention can be advantageously used to effectively block fibrosis in various tissues by ultimately providing a fundamental inhibition method for pathological fibrosis mechanisms.
