HER2 VARIANT CAR
The present invention provides a binding molecule which specifically binds p95HER2 comprising the amino acid sequence set forth in SEQ ID NO: 17, comprising a light chain variable domain (VL) and a heavy chain variable domain (VH) which together form an antigen binding unit, wherein the VL comprises three complementarity determining regions (CDRs): CDR1, CDR2 and CDR3, which respectively comprise the amino acid sequences SEQ ID NOs: 1, 2 and 3; and wherein the VH comprises three CDRs; CDR1, CDR2 and CDR3, which respectively comprise the amino acid sequences SEQ ID NOs: 4, 5 and 6.
Modified T cells and uses thereof
The present invention generally relates to T cells that are modified to enhance the efficiency of adoptive cellular therapy by modulating dendritic cell activity, a composition comprising modified T cells, vectors and methods for the treatment of cancer comprising administering modified T cells. In particular, the present invention provides modified T cells for use in adoptive cellular therapies for the treatment of solid tumours.
Combination therapy with semaphorin-4D blockade (SEMA4D) and DC1 therapy
Disclosed are compositions and methods comprising the administration of pulsed dendritic cells and an immunoregulator molecule inhibitor for the treatment of cancer.
METHODS OF USING RARy AGONISTS FOR CANCER TREATMENT
The invention discloses novel RAR gamma selective agonists used in the treatment of cancer. The invention also discloses administration of RAR gamma selective agonists to mammals, including humans for the purpose of selectively activating RAR gamma receptor and treat cancer by way of activating tumor infiltrating lymphocytes.
Tissue Targeted Antigenic Activation of the Immune Response to Treat Cancers
The invention provides in part methods of treating cancers of a specific organ or tissue by administering a composition that is antigenically specific for one or more microbes that are pathogenic in the specific organ or tissue in which the cancer is situated.
CAR-EXPRESSING NK-92 CELLS AS CELL THERAPEUTIC AGENTS
The present invention relates to an ErbB2-specific NK-92 cell or cell line containing a lentiviral vector encoding a chimeric antigen receptor and preferably two vector integration loci in its cellular genome. The present invention further relates to the use of the ErbB2-specific NK-92 cell or cell line in the prevention and/or treatment of cancer, preferably ErbB2-expressing cancers. The present invention further relates to the use of the ErbB2-specific NK-92 cell or cell line as targeted cell therapeutic agent and/or for adoptive cancer immunotherapy. The present invention further relates to a method for generating an ErbB2-specific NK-92 cell or cell line as well as to a method for identifying an ErbB2-specific NK-92 cell or cell line and to the ErbB2-specific NK-92 cell or cell line obtained or identified by the methods as well as their uses.
COMPOSITIONS, METHODS, AND COMPUTER SYSTEMS RELATED TO MAKING AND ADMINISTERING MODIFIED T CELLS
Embodiments described herein relate to methods, devices, and computer systems thereof for the derivation of T CAR libraries (Universal Subject or Individual Subject) for personalized treatment of disease in a subject. In certain embodiments, differential screening of normal and diseased tissue expression data is utilized to determine disease-specific antigens and thereby generate T CAR cells reactive to such antigens to form a disease-specific library. In certain embodiments, determination of the most effective T CAR clones from the disease-specific library is based on the subject's own disease-specific antigens. In certain embodiments, a subject is treated with a therapeutically effective amount of T CAR clones.
Method for identifying deltaT-cell (or gammaT-cell) receptor chains or parts thereof that mediate an anti-tumour or an anti-infective response
The present invention relates to a method for identifying T-cell (or T-cell) receptors chains or parts thereof that mediate an anti-tumor or anti-infection response by identifying amino acid sequences comprising T-cells (or T-cell) receptors chains or parts thereof that are shared between different donors.
DEFECTIVE RIBOSOMAL PRODUCTS IN BLEBS (DRIBBLES) AND METHODS OF USE TO STIMULATE AN IMMUNE RESPONSE
Methods are disclosed for producing defective ribosomal products (DRiPs) in blebs (DRibbles) by contacting cells with a proteasome inhibitor, and in some examples also an autophagy inducer, thereby producing treated cells. DRibbles can be used to load antigen presenting cells (APCs), thereby allowing the APCs to present the DRiPs and antigenic fragments thereof. Immunogenic compositions that include treated cells, isolated DRibbles, or DRibble-loaded APCs are also disclosed. Methods are also provided for using treated cells, isolated DRibbles, or DRibble-loaded APCs to stimulate an immune response, for example in a subject. For example, DRibbles obtained from a tumor cell can be used to stimulate an immune response against the same type of tumor cells in the subject. In another example, DRibbles obtained from a pathogen-infected cell or cell engineered to express one or more antigens of a pathogen can be used to stimulate an immune response against the pathogen in the subject.
CANCER IMMUNOTHERAPY COMPOSITIONS AND METHODS
The present invention relates to compositions and methods for cancer immunotherapy. In particular, the present invention relates to engineered effector B cells and their use in cancer immunotherapy.
