High affinity fully human monoclonal antibodies to interleukin-8 and epitopes for such antibodies

摘要

The present embodiments are related to high-affinity antibodies directed to IL-8, methods of making and characterizing such antibodies and uses of such antibodies. Isolated polynucleotide sequences encoding, and amino acid sequences comprising, heavy and light chain immunoglobulin molecules, particularly sequences corresponding to contiguous heavy and light chain sequences spanning the framework regions (FR's) and/or complementarity determining regions (CDR's), are provided.
