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.

Provided is a ROBO1 CAR-NK cell carrying a suicide gene, and a preparation method and application thereof. In order to increase the safety and controllability of a CAR-NK therapy, on the basis of a present ROBO1 CAR-NK cell, a suicide gene switch element is integrated into a genome by means of a lentiviral transfection technology to form a CAR-NK carrying a suicide gene. By adding the suicide gene, the CAR-NK cell can be better controlled, and the clinical safety is further improved.

The invention relates to a peptide comprising an amino acid sequence selected from the group consisting of (i) SEQ ID NO: 1 to SEQ ID NO: 216, and (ii) a variant sequence thereof which maintains capacity to bind to MHC molecule(s) and/or induce T cells cross-reacting with said variant peptide, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof.

Compositions comprising an antigen, a carbohydrate, and a metabolizable oil, methods of administering such compositions to a subject, methods of making such compounds, and related compositions, methods, and uses.

Embodiments relate to a method for increasing or maintaining a population of memory T-cells. The method includes introducing T-cells with a nucleic acid encoding a chimeric antigen receptor (CAR), wherein the CAR includes an extracellular domain, a transmembrane domain, and an intracellular domain, and the extracellular domain binds an antigen; introducing into the T-cells a nucleic acid encoding a modified PD-1, wherein the modified PD-1 lacks a functional PD-1 intracellular domain; and administering an effective amount of a composition comprising the T-cells to a subject having cancer.

Provided is an antibody that recognizes and binds to carbonic anhydrase or antigen-binding fragment, a nucleic acid molecule coding for the antibody or antigen-binding fragment, a vector carrying the nucleic acid molecule, a host cell including the nucleic acid molecule or the vector, and use of the antibody or antigen-binding fragment thereof in the alleviation, prevention, treatment or diagnosis of solid cancers.

Engineered dendritic cell vaccines, and methods of forming and applying same, that may be used as effective immunotherapies for cancers.

The present disclosure provides a microbial consortium comprising two or more microorganisms, compositions and kits comprising the same and uses thereof for treating cancer.

The present invention provides an immune enhancer comprising at least an interferon and a granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor, and an immunotherapeutic pharmaceutical composition comprising at least an antigen and the above-mentioned immune enhancers. The present invention further discloses a preparation method of the immunotherapeutic pharmaceutical composition, the use of the immune enhancer and the immunotherapeutic pharmaceutical composition. The immune enhancer can be applied to disease and tumor treatments caused by viruses, bacteria, and other microorganisms.

The present invention relates to compositions, methods, and kits for eliciting an immune response to at least one CMV antigen expressed by a cancer cell, in particular for treating and preventing cancer. CMV determination methods, compositions, and kits also are provided.
