METHOD OF MONITORING TREATMENT
The invention relates to a method for monitoring the treatment of a subject undergoing therapy with an active that is naltrexone or a metabolite or analogue thereof, comprising: measuring the gene expression profile of any of the genes listed in Table 1 or Table 2, in a sample of CD3+ cells obtained from the subject undergoing treatment; wherein if the expression of any of the genes in Table 1 is increased compared to a control, or if any of the genes listed in Table 2 is decreased compared to a control the active is being administered at an effective level.
METHODS AND SYSTEM FOR VALIDATING FLOW CYTOMETRY MEASUREMENTS
Disclosed are validation methods and systems for characterizing the credibility and reproducibility of measurements made by a fluorescence-based analytical instrument.
NOVEL PEPTIDES AND COMBINATION OF PEPTIDES FOR USE IN IMMUNOTHERAPY AGAINST VARIOUS TUMORS
A method of treating a patient who has hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), colorectal carcinoma (CRC), glioblastoma (GB), gastric cancer (GC), esophageal cancer, NSCLC, pancreatic cancer (PC), renal cell carcinoma (RCC), benign prostate hyperplasia (BPH), prostate cancer (PCA), ovarian cancer (OC), melanoma, breast cancer (BRCA), CLL, Merkel cell carcinoma (MCC), SCLC, Non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL), AML, gallbladder cancer and cholangiocarcinoma (GBC, CCC), urinary bladder cancer (UBC), and uterine cancer (UEC) includes administering to said patient a composition containing a population of activated T cells that selectively recognize cells in the patient that aberrantly express a peptide. A pharmaceutical composition contains activated T cells that selectively recognize cells in a patient that aberrantly express a peptide, and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier, in which the T cells bind to the peptide in a complex with an MHC class I molecule, and the composition is for treating the patient who has HCC, CRC, GB, GC, esophageal cancer, NSCLC, PC, RCC, BPH, PCA, OC, melanoma, BRCA, CLL, MCC, SCLC, NHL, AML, GBC, CCC, UBC, and/or UEC. A method of treating a patient who has HCC, CRC, GB, GC, esophageal cancer, NSCLC, PC, RCC, BPH, PCA, OC, melanoma, BRCA, CLL, MCC, SCLC, NHL, AML, GBC, CCC, UBC, and/or UEC includes administering to said patient a composition comprising a peptide in the form of a pharmaceutically acceptable salt, thereby inducing a T-cell response to the HCC, CRC, GB, GC, esophageal cancer, NSCLC, PC, RCC, BPH, PCA, OC, melanoma, BRCA, CLL, MCC, SCLC, NHL, AML, GBC, CCC, UBC, and/or UEC.
FLOW CYTOMETRIC METHOD FOR CHARACTERIZATION OF T-CELL IMPURITIES
Compositions and methods for fluorescence activated cell analysis of blood cell populations.
Peptides and combination of peptides for use in immunotherapy against various tumors
A method of treating a patient who has hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), colorectal carcinoma (CRC), glioblastoma (GB), gastric cancer (GC), esophageal cancer, NSCLC, pancreatic cancer (PC), renal cell carcinoma (RCC), benign prostate hyperplasia (BPH), prostate cancer (PCA), ovarian cancer (OC), melanoma, breast cancer (BRCA), CLL, Merkel cell carcinoma (MCC), SCLC, Non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL), AML, gallbladder cancer and cholangiocarcinoma (GBC, CCC), urinary bladder cancer (UBC), and uterine cancer (UEC) includes administering to said patient a composition containing a population of activated T cells that selectively recognize cells in the patient that aberrantly express a peptide. A pharmaceutical composition contains activated T cells that selectively recognize cells in a patient that aberrantly express a peptide, and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier, in which the T cells bind to the peptide in a complex with an MHC class I molecule, and the composition is for treating the patient who has HCC, CRC, GB, GC, esophageal cancer, NSCLC, PC, RCC, BPH, PCA, OC, melanoma, BRCA, CLL, MCC, SCLC, NHL, AML, GBC, CCC, UBC, and/or UEC. A method of treating a patient who has HCC, CRC, GB, GC, esophageal cancer, NSCLC, PC, RCC, BPH, PCA, OC, melanoma, BRCA, CLL, MCC, SCLC, NHL, AML, GBC, CCC, UBC, and/or UEC includes administering to said patient a composition comprising a peptide in the form of a pharmaceutically acceptable salt, thereby inducing a T-cell response to the HCC, CRC, GB, GC, esophageal cancer, NSCLC, PC, RCC, BPH, PCA, OC, melanoma, BRCA, CLL, MCC, SCLC, NHL, AML, GBC, CCC, UBC, and/or UEC.
Tolerogenic synthetic nanocarriers
This invention relates, at least in part, to compositions comprising synthetic nanocarriers and immunosuppressants that result in immune suppressive effects. Such compositions can further comprise antigen and provide antigen-specific tolerogenic immune responses.
HBV antigen specific binding molecules and fragments thereof
Hepatitis B Virus (HBV) antigen specific binding molecules, in particular T Cell Receptors (TCRs), TCR polypeptides and fragments thereof. The invention is also related to modified cells containing the TCRs, TCR polypeptides or fragments, pharmaceutical composition or kits including the same or methods of making or using the same as is described. In particular, the invention discloses TCRs or a fragments thereof, capable of binding to a peptide of a Hepatitis B Virus (HBV) Env polypeptide presented by an MHC class I molecule comprising an MHC class I σ-chain encoded by an HLA-Cw*08 allele.
T-CELL RECEPTOR CONSTANT REGION 1 ANTIBODY OR T-CELL RECEPTOR CONSTANT REGION 2 ANTIBODY
The present invention provides antibodies and polyclonal antibody preparations which bind the intracellular portion of either T-cell receptor constant region 2 (TRBC2) or T-cell receptor constant region 1 (TRBC1). The antibodies can be used to determine whether a T-cell malignancy clonally expresses TRBC1 or TRBC2.
Methods of Treating Cancer
The present disclosure provides methods of treating cancer and methods for selecting treatment approaches for cancer.
NOVEL PEPTIDES AND COMBINATION OF PEPTIDES FOR USE IN IMMUNOTHERAPY AGAINST VARIOUS TUMORS
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.
