The present invention provides a peptide comprising, consisting essentially of or consisting of (i) the amino acid sequence KMPEAGEEQPQV (SEQ ID NO: 1); (ii) the amino acid sequence ISQTPGINL (SEQ ID NO: 2); or (iii) the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 1 or 2 with the exception of 1, 2 or 3 amino acid substitutions and/or 1, 2 or 3 amino acid insertions, and/or 1, 2 or 3 amino acid deletions, wherein the peptide forms a complex with a Major Histocompatibility Complex (MHC) molecule. Also provided are a complex of the peptide a Major Histocompatibility Complex (MHC) molecule, a nucleic acid molecule comprising a nucleic acid sequence encoding the peptide, a vector comprising such a nucleic acid sequence, a cell comprising such a vector and a binding moiety that binds the peptide.

The present invention relates to immunogens directed against lung cancer associated proliferative peptides and growth factors and its uses thereof in conjunction with chemotherapeutics in the early and advanced treatment of various malignant diseases, especially including lung cancers, both small cell lung carcinomas (SCLC), non-small cell lung (NSCLC) cancers and neuroendocrine-type cancers.

Provided herein are methods and compositions related to bacteria of genus Burkholderia useful as therapeutic agents.

The field of the present invention relates to immunotherapeutic peptides, peptide binding agents, and their use, for example, in the immunotherapy of cancer.

From gene expression analysis with a long-term recurrence-free group and a recurrence metastasis group of stomach cancer, CHRNB2 and NPTXR were identified as drug discovery targets. Tumor growth was successfully inhibited by an antibody medicine or a nucleic acid medicine targeting CHRNB2 or NPTXR. Furthermore, a polyclonal antibody and a monoclonal antibody linking to CHRNB2 or NPTXR are provided. Since these receptor molecules are novel molecular targets, treatment of cases which the existing therapeutic drugs have no effect on is made possible.

The field of the present invention relates to immunotherapeutic peptides, peptide binding agents, and their use, for example, in the immunotherapy of cancer.

The disclosure relates to polypeptides and pharmaceutical compositions comprising polypeptides that find use in the prevention or treatment of cancer, in particular gastric cancer, lung cancer, melanoma and bladder cancer. The disclosure also relates to methods of inducing a cytotoxic T cell response in a subject or treating cancer by administering pharmaceutical compositions comprising the peptides, and companion diagnostic methods of identifying subjects for treatment. The peptides comprise T cell epitopes that are immunogenic in a high percentage of patients.

The present disclosure relates to compositions and methods for compositions, methods, and kits for treating cancer using chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) modified cells. Some embodiments of the present disclosure relate to an isolated nucleic acid sequence encoding CAR. The CAR may include an antigen binding domain, a transmembrane domain, a costimulatory signaling region, and a CD3 zeta signaling domain. The antigen binding domain may bind to an antigen of a non-essential organ.

The invention provides compositions, methods, and vaccines that may stimulate the immune system and that may be used for treating malignancies associated with overexpression of the HER3 protein. Such compositions include epitopes of the HER3 protein.

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.
