CAR cells targeting FLT3 antigens in combination with a secreted anti-PD-1 and anti-PD-L1 antibodies or anti-PD-1-anti-PD-L1 bispecific antibodies are described as a new method of cancer treatment. It is proposed that these combination therapies are safe and effective in patients and can be used to treat human tumors and cancer.

The present invention aims to provide a novel therapeutic approach to human muscular dystrophy (particularly MDC1A). The present invention provide a polynucleotide comprising the following base sequences: (a) a base sequence encoding a fusion protein of a nuclease-deficient CRISPR effector protein and a transcription activator, and (b) a base sequence encoding (i) a guide RNA targeting a continuous region set forth in SEQ ID NO: 15, 20, 25, 50, 56, or 61, (ii) a guide RNA targeting a continuous region set forth in SEQ ID NO: 124, or (iii) a guide RNA targeting a continuous region set forth in SEQ ID NO: 178, 193, or 195, in the expression regulatory region of human LAMA1 gene.

The present disclosure provides improved CD33 targeting polypeptides and compositions for adoptive T cell therapies for treating, preventing, or ameliorating at least one symptom of a cancer, infectious disease, autoimmune disease, inflammatory disease, and immunodeficiency, or condition associated therewith.

Provided herein are recombinant polynucleotides including a first nucleic acid sequence encoding an antigen, and a second nucleic acid sequence encoding an enzyme of an amino acid catabolic pathway. The provided recombinant polynucleotides are particularly useful for inducing long-lived immune responses having improved memory characteristics. Also provided are pharmaceutical compositions, viral particles, and host cells including the disclosed recombinant polynucleotides, and methods for using the disclosed materials.
