Abstract

Abstract First and second compounds are provided, where the first compound is administered to a mammalian host into blood for covalent bonding to blood components, where the components have an extended lifetime in the blood stream. The first compound comprises an active functionality and an agent of interest or a first binding entity. A second compound may be subsequently administered to the patient, which comprises a second binding entity, complementary to the first binding entity and an agent of interest. By virtue of binding to long-lived blood components, the half-life of the agent of interest is greatly extended in vivo.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 7
Claim 1
Independent Claim 100 words
An isolated blood composition comprising: conjugates of immunoglobulins and serum albumin covalently bonded to a synthetic organic compound as a biologically active compound as the major protein conjugates in said blood composition, said conjugates resulting from the addition of said synthetic organic compound to blood, said synthetic organic compound comprising (a) a reactive functional group which reacts with proteins to form stable covalent bonds, and either (b) a biologically active compound of interest, or (c) a first binding member which is a member of a specific binding pair consisting of said first binding member and a complementary second binding member.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 100 words
An isolated blood composition comprising: conjugates of immunoglobulins and serum albumin covalently bonded to a synthetic organic compound as a biologically active compound as the major protein conjugates in said blood composition, said conjugates resulting from the addition of said synthetic organic compound to blood, said synthetic organic compound comprising (a) a reactive functional group which reacts with proteins to form stable covalent bonds, and either (b) a biologically active compound of interest, or (c) a first binding member which is a member of a specific binding pair consisting of said first binding member and a complementary second binding member.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 19 words
A blood composition according to claim 1, wherein said first binding member of a specific binding pair is biotin.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 17 words
A blood composition according to claim 2, wherein said complementary second binding member is avidin or streptavidin.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 20 words
A blood composition according to claim 1, wherein said addition of said synthetic organic compound to blood occurs ex vivo.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 18 words
A blood composition according to claim 1 wherein said addition of said synthetic organic compound occurs in vivo.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 20 words
The composition of claim 1 wherein said reactive functional group is selected from the group consisting of N-hydroxysuccinimide and N-hydroxysulfosuccinimide.
