NOVEL PEPTIDES AND COMBINATION OF PEPTIDES FOR USE IN IMMUNOTHERAPY AGAINST PROSTATE CANCER AND OTHER CANCERS
The present invention relates to peptides, proteins, nucleic acids and cells for use in immunotherapeutic methods. In particular, the present invention relates to the immunotherapy of cancer. The present invention furthermore relates to tumor-associated T-cell peptide epitopes, alone or in combination with other tumor-associated peptides that can for example serve as active pharmaceutical ingredients of vaccine compositions that stimulate anti-tumor immune responses, or to stimulate T cells ex vivo and transfer into patients. Peptides bound to molecules of the major histocompatibility complex (MHC), or peptides as such, can also be targets of antibodies, soluble T-cell receptors, and other binding molecules.
CD200 INHIBITORS AND METHODS OF USE THEREOF
The present invention provides in certain embodiments conjugates comprising at least one CD200 inhibitor and an adjuvant, and methods of reversing or modulating immune suppression in a patient having a disease or disorder arising from abnormal cell growth, function or behavior, which method comprises administering to a patient in need thereof a composition comprising a CD200 inhibitor and an adjuvant.
LIPID A MIMICS, METHODS OF PREPARATION, AND USES THEREOF
The invention provides lipid A mimics in which one or both of the sugar residues of a natural lipid A disaccharide backbone has been replaced with an aromatic group. These lipid A mimics may further differ from a natural lipid A molecule with respect to other structural characteristics, such as, a different number of phosphate groups present, changes in the number, structure and location of lipid chains and/or changes in the spacing and linkage of the sugar residues (or their aromatic replacements). The lipid A mimics may be lipid A agonists and as such may be useful as immunostimulatory agents in inducing or patenting an antibody and/or cell-mediated immune response, or may be lipid A antagonists and as such may be useful in treating or preventing a lipopolysaccharide (LPS)/lipid A-mediated disease or disorder. Also provided are methods for preparing the lipid A mimics.
Methods for Enhancing Efficacy of Therapeutic Immune Cells
The present invention relates to a method of using a receptor (e.g., chimeric antigen receptor—CAR) that activates an immune response upon binding a cancer cell ligand in conjunction with a target-binding molecule that targets a protein or molecule CI for removal or neutralization to generate enhanced anti-cancer immune cells. The present invention also relates to engineered immune cells having enhanced therapeutic efficacy and uses thereof.
T Cells with Increased Immunosuppression Resistance
This invention relates to the treatment of cancer in an individual by administration of a population of modified T cells that express a recombinant cAMP phosphodiesterase (PDE) or a fragment thereof and an antigen receptor which binds specifically to cancer cells in the individual. Populations of modified T cells and methods of producing populations of modified T cells are provided, along with pharmaceutical compositions and methods of treatment
Chimeric transmembrane proteins and uses thereof
Provided herein are chimeric transmembrane proteins and proteins, nucleic acids encoding these chimeric transmembrane proteins or proteins, and mammalian cells containing these nucleic acids, and methods of making and using these mammalian cells.
Compositions and methods for treating cancer with anti-CD19 immunotherapy
Chimeric antigen receptors containing human CD19 antigen binding domains are disclosed. Nucleic acids, recombinant expression vectors, host cells, antigen binding fragments, and pharmaceutical compositions, relating to the chimeric antigen receptors are also disclosed. Methods of treating or preventing cancer in a subject, and methods of making chimeric antigen receptor T cells are also disclosed.
Chimeric engulfment receptor molecules and methods of use
The present disclosure relates to chimeric engulfment receptor molecules, host cells modified to include the phagocytic engulfment molecules, and methods of making and using such receptor molecules and modified cells.
Binding Members to PD-L1
The present invention relates to anti-PD-L1 binding members and in particular to monovalent, high potency PD-L1-binding antibody fragments being highly stable and soluble. Such binding members may be used in the treatment of cancer and inflammatory diseases as well as in diagnostics. Also provided are related nucleic acids, vectors, cells, and compositions.
FORMULATION OF A PEPTIDE VACCINE
The invention relates to a novel reconstitution composition, a pharmaceutical composition and kit of parts comprising said reconstitution composition. The invention further relates to a method of treatment using said pharmaceutical composition and/or the pharmaceutical composition for use as a medicament. Also provided is a method for reconstituting dried peptides and a method for preparing a pharmaceutical composition using the reconstitution composition of the invention.
