Anti-PSMA antibodies (e.g., UniAbs?) and CAR-T structures are disclosed, along with methods of making such antibodies and CAR-T structures, compositions, including pharmaceutical compositions, comprising such antibodies and CAR-T structures, and their use to treat disorders that are characterized by the expression of PSMA.

Described herein is a reliable method for preparing a potent vaccine useful for immunotherapy comprising the step of cryopreserving a population of cells undergoing immunogenic cell death, and using such cells to activate dendritic cells for use in immunotherapy. In a specific embodiment, the method comprises cryopreserving cancer cells undergoing cell death, which can be used to prepare a pharmaceutical composition for immunotherapy against cancer.

Provided herein are modified T lymphocytes comprising chimeric receptors and methods of use thereof.

Embodiments of the present disclosure relate to compositions and methods of enhancing anti-tumor activities of modified cells, the method comprising: administering an effective amount of the modified cells to a subject having a solid tumor; and administering an effective amount of an agent to the subject, the agent comprising rapamycin, wherein the modified cells inhibit growth of the solid tumor in the subject, and wherein the anti-tumor activities in the subject are greater than those in a subject that is administered with an effective amount of modified cells but without the agent.

This invention provides ex vivo methods for making modified PBMC compositions having overall anti-fugetactic properties for the effective and efficient treatment of tumors or cancers in a patient, and compositions and use thereof, following treatment with an antigen presenting cell-based vaccine against a cancer antigen.

Compositions and methods are disclosed herein for producing one or more immunoglobulins in an isolated cytotoxic B lymphocyte cell line. An isolated cell line includes an isolated B lymphocyte cell line capable of expressing at least one exogenously incorporated membrane immunoglobulin capable of binding to a first antigen and at least one endogenous secreted immunoglobulin capable of binding to a second antigen, and further capable of expressing at least one exogenously incorporated recombinant B cell receptor that signals for expression of cytotoxic effector molecules.

The invention relates to therapy and methods of applying the therapy to a patient. The invention includes the introduction of immature dendritic cells into the patient and the introduction of anti-TNF antibody into the patient. The immature dendritic cells are introduced intratumorally and/or through vessel and the anti-TNF antibody is introduced intratumorally and/or through vessel and/or subcutaneously. The immature dendritic cells can be formed by collecting monocyte cells from the patient and culturing the cells in a culture medium. The invention can be effective to regress, reduce or eliminate tumor cells in tumor tissue of the patients, including metastasized tumors. Further, the treatment of the invention is effective in the absence of conventional therapy, such as radiotherapy and chemotherapy.

Described herein is a reliable method for preparing a potent vaccine useful for immunotherapy comprising the step of cryopreserving a population of cells undergoing immunogenic cell death, and using such cells to activate dendritic cells for use in immunotherapy. In a specific embodiment, the method comprises cryopreserving cancer cells undergoing cell death, which can be used to prepare a pharmaceutical composition for immunotherapy against cancer.

Methods of providing a targeted immune response in a subject comprising administration of a dendritic cell population are provided. In some aspects, dendritic cells are administered in conjunction with a Type I interferon (INF), a TLR-7 agonist, a TLR-9 agonist, AIMp1, a TLR-3 agonist, a retinoic acid inducible gene-1 (RIG-1)-like receptor ligand or a cytosolic DNA (CDS) receptor ligand and/or are administered to a tissue site proximal to diseased tissue. Therapeutic dendritic cell compositions are likewise provided.

The present disclosure provides modified immune cells or precursors thereof (e.g. modified T cells) comprising a chimeric cell surface sialidase or a variant sialidase precursor protein. Compositions and methods of treatment are also provided.
