A patent application (Publication Number: US20240026017A1) describes a method for diagnosing and treating CCR1-related conditions in humans. The method involves detecting CCR1 in a biological sample using a monoclonal antibody that binds to an extracellular region of human CCR1 and inhibits its activation by CCL15. The monoclonal antibody is selected from a specific list of antibodies with defined amino acid sequences. For diagnosing CCR1-related cancer, autoimmune diseases, or inflammatory diseases, the presence of CCR1 indicates the condition in the subject. In the treatment method, a therapeutically-effective amount of the monoclonal antibody is administered to the subject to treat the CCR1-related condition by inhibiting CCR1 activation.

Furthermore, the patent application specifies the use of genetically recombinant antibodies and various antibody fragments, such as Fab, Fab', (Fab')2, scFv, diabody, dsFv, and peptides comprising CDR, for binding to CCR1. The antibody or antibody fragment can also be conjugated to radioisotopes, low molecular weight drugs, high molecular weight drugs, proteins, or other antibody drugs for targeted therapy. The application lists a range of low molecular weight drugs that can be used in conjunction with the antibody, including chemotherapeutic agents like cisplatin, doxorubicin, and paclitaxel, among others. Additionally, high molecular weight drugs like polyethylene glycol and albumin are also mentioned as potential conjugates for the antibody in treating CCR1-related conditions in humans.
