Patent CA-2560501-C (CA)
Inventor: SIMPSON NEIL ANDREW ABERCROMBI
IPC: B21D39/10
Filed: 1999-12-21
Granted: 2008-03-25
Abstract: Methods and apparatus for shaping pipes, tubes, liners, or casing at downhole locations in wells. Use is made of rollers bearing radially outwards against the inside wall of the pipe (etc.), the rollers being rolled around the pipe to cause outward plastic deformation which expands and shapes the pipe to a desired profile. Where one pipe is inside another, the two pipes can be joined without separate components (except optional seals). Landing nipples and liner hangers can be formed in situ. Valves can be deployed to a selected downhole location and there sealed to the casing or liner without separate packers. Casing can be deployed downhole in reduced-diameter lengths and then expanded to case a well without requiring larger diameter bores and casing further uphole. The invention enables simplified downhole working, and enables a well to be drilled and produced with the minimum downhole bore throughout its depth, obviating the need for large bores. When expanding lengths of casing, the casing does not need to be anchored or made pressure-tight. The profiling/expansion tools of the invention can be deployed downhole on coiled tubing, and operated without high tensile loads on the coiled tubing.

Title: Differentially expressed claudin-18 variants in tumors and use thereof
Inventor: TUERECI OEZLEM
IPC: C07K16/30
Filed: 2005-05-18
Granted: 2017-11-14
Abstract: The invention relates to the therapy and diagnosis of diseases wherein gene products expressed in a tumor-associated manner are aberrantly expressed. Specifically disclosed are antibodies which bind specifically to certain regions of the tumor-associated antigen Claudin-18, such as the regions defined by SEQ ID NOs: 142-148. The antibody binds selectively to an epitope of a glycosylation variant of Claudin-18, which epitope is non-glycosylated in Claudin-18 when expressed in tumor tissue and glycosylated in Claudin-18 when expressed in normal tissue, said glycosylation in normal tissue preventing binding of the antibody. Such antibodies may be used in the diagnosis of cancer characterized by the expression of the Claudin-18 variant.
