The present disclosure relates to a tumor specific neoantigenic peptide, wherein said peptide (i) is encoded by a part of an (ORF) sequence from an unannotated transcript which transcription is positively regulated by an aberrant fusion protein, and (ii) is expressed at a higher level or frequency in a sample from said tumor compared to normal tissue sample. The present disclosure also relates to vaccine or immunogenic composition, antibodies and immune cells derived thereof and their use in therapy of cancer.

The present invention relates to RNA, particularly an immunostimulatory RNA (isRNA), a coding RNA or a combination thereof, for use in the treatment or prophylaxis of a disease, in particular a tumor and/or cancer disease. The present invention also provides pharmaceutical compositions, and a kit comprising the RNA(s). Further, the invention also comprises medical uses of the RNA(s) and compositions comprising the RNA(s).

Contemplated cancer therapies comprise co-administration of aldoxorubicin with an immune therapeutic composition that preferably comprises a vaccine component and a cytotoxic cell component.

Contemplated cancer therapies comprise co-administration of aldoxorubicin with an immune therapeutic composition that preferably comprises a vaccine component and a cytotoxic cell component.

Provided are methods for the production of infinite immune cells with an increased lifespan and high proliferation rates by engineering them to express BCL6 and a cell survival-promoting gene. Further provided herein are methods for the production and use of the infinite immune cells for the treatment of diseases, such as cancer.

Provided herein is DNA vaccine and composition comprising PD1-based TWIST1. Also provided is a method for inducing TWIST1-specific T cell response by administering a PD1-based TWIST1 vaccine. Also provided is a method for inducing TWIST1-specific T cell response by administering a PD1-based TWIST1 vaccine and an immune checkpoint inhibitor.

Provided herein is DNA vaccine and composition comprising PD1-based TWIST1. Also provided is a method for inducing TWIST1-specific T cell response by administering a PD1-based TWIST1 vaccine. Also provided is a method for inducing TWIST1-specific T cell response by administering a PD1-based TWIST1 vaccine and an immune checkpoint inhibitor.

Cancer is treated using coordinated treatment regimens that uses various compounds and compositions that drive a tumor from the escape phase of cancer immunoediting to the elimination and equilibrium phase of cancer immunoediting.

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.

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.
